Pesachim 49

1) [line 14] MAPOLES - debris from a collapsed structure
2) [line 15] LISHBOS SHEVISAS HA'RESHUS - (a) a person may make an Eruv Techumin (see Background to Eruvin, "Introduction to Maseches Eruvin" [IV]) by walking on Erev Shabbos or Erev Yom Tov to the place where he wants his dwelling or "place of Shevisah" to be, and staying there until nightfall. He need not place any food there and he may return to his home immediately after nightfall. If his intention for setting the Eruv was not for a purpose that is termed a Mitzvah (see Eruvin 31a, 36b), he must return to destroy his Chametz (RASHI); (b) a person who walks on Pesach to spend Shabbos at a friend's or relative's house (TOSFOS DH Lishbos)

3) [line 17] TZOFIM - (a) the name of a village on a mountain from where the Beis ha'Mikdash can be seen (RASHI); (b) (lit. sighting) the points (in any direction) where he can no longer see Yerushalayim (TOSFOS DH Im)

4) [line 17] SORFO (YOTZE:SEREIFASO)
The parts of the Korbanos that are eaten become Yotzei and are rendered unfit to be eaten if they leave their set boundaries (such as the Azarah for Kodshei Kodshim or Yerushalayim for Kodshim Kalim). Korbanos that were removed from the boundaries of the Azarah after they were slaughtered but before they were offered are also called Yotzei, and are forbidden to be offered on the Mizbe'ach. The Torah requires that all Yotzei be burned, as is learned from the verse in Vayikra (7:17) regarding Nosar. (Rambam Hilchos Pesulei ha'Mukdashin 19:1).

5) [line 18] HA'BIRAH - the Beis ha'Mikdash
6) [line 19] ATZEI HA'MA'ARACHAH - the wood that is set aside for the purpose of being used for burning Korbanos on the Mizbe'ach

13) [line 44] "... V'OCHLIM KARIM MI'TZON VA'AGALIM MITOCH MARBEK" - "... and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall." (Amos 6:4) - The prophet warns those who indulge in excessive luxuries, such as Se'udos ha'Reshus, that they will be punished with exile
