Shabbos 60

***************GIRSA SECTION********************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach, Rav B. Rensburg and the parenthetical marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any *OTHER* changes that we feel ought to be made in Gemara, Rashi or Tosfos.)

[1] Gemara 60a [line 2]:
The word "*b'Arsi*"
should be "*b'Adsha*"
This is the Girsa of Dikdukei Sofrim #7, the Oxford manuscript and the
Aruch (Erech Adash.) It also appears this way in Rashi of the Soncino
edition of the Shas.

[2] Gemara 60b [line 24]:
The words "Ba'a Minei Rav Huna mi'Rav *Ashi*"
should be "Ba'a Minei Rav Huna mi'Rav *Ami*"
This is the Girsa of the Oxford manuscript, Rabeinu Chananel and
Chidushei ha'Ran. (See Hagahos Dikdukei Sofrim #8)

[3] Gemara 60b [line 28]:
The words "Amar *Rav Ashi* v'Lo Yada Mar Mai Ta'ama"
should be "Amar *Rebbi Asi* v'Lo Yada Mar Mai Ta'ama"
(Rav Ashi lived much later than Rebbi Ami) Ya'avetz

*11*) [line 17] SANDAL HA'MESUMAR - a wooden sandal that has nail-heads protruding from its sole, which may be worn forwards or backwards.
METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION: A block of wood was covered in the center by a piece of leather which allowed the foot to enter. The leather was nailed down on both sides, with the nail-heads protruding slightly from the bottom of the wood. A long strap extending from both sides was attached in the center by nails, which was used to secure the sandal on the foot. The wooden block is called *Sole*, the upper piece of leather is called *Panta* and the straps are called *Tarsiyos* (Rashi 60b DH Ela l'Chazek and DH Tarsiyosav) (see Graphic #1)

21) [line 11] OCHEL NEFESH
The Mishnah (Megilah 7b) states that the only difference between Shabbos and Yom Tov is that the preparation of food is permitted on Yom Tov. This is learned from Shmos 12:16, which excludes food preparation from the prohibitions of Yom Tov. All Melachos of Shabbos are prohibited on Yom Tov even if they are done expressly for the purpose of food preparation, except for the Melachos of Hotza'ah mi'Rshus li'Rshus (transferring objects from one domain to another) and Hav'arah (transferring flames,) which are necessary for food preparation. Since these Melachos were permitted for the purpose of food preparation, they were also permitted for any purpose. (RAMBAM Hilchos Yom Tov 1:4)
