(a) Is there a proof for Rebbi Pedas from the Beraisa, which not only permits a Chaver (a Talmid-Chacham who is particular about separating all tithes and about Tum'ah and Taharah) to send his son to his maternal grandfather (who is an Am ha'Aretz - who is not) to eat, but who does not require his father to confiscate fruit that they gave him there (even though he knows that his grandfather may not have Ma'asered his produce)?

(b) How do we reconcile Rebbi Yochanan, who establishes this Beraisa by D'mai, whereas earlier, he was lenient even with regard to a child lighting a fire or extinguishing one (Melachos d'Oraysa), as long as the child was doing it of his accord?

(c) Is there a proof for Rebbi Pedas from the Beraisa, which not only permits a Kohen Chaver to send his son to his maternal grandfather (who is an Am ha'Aretz) to eat Terumah, but who does not even require his father to confiscate fruit that they gave him there?

6)

1. ... insects, why does the Torah need repeat it regarding blood?
2. ... blood, why does the Torah need to repeat it regarding insects?

(b) Having taught us the prohibition of ...

1. ... it was a time of war?
2. ... if they were on bad terms?

(c) Rebbi Yehudah is more stringent than the Tana Kama.
Under which conditions is she believed according to him?

(a) Why does the Tana find it necessary to tell us in the Reisha that there was peace between the husband and wife and that there was peace in the world (see Tosfos DH 'Tana')?

(b) Rava explains that in time of war, the woman easily presumes her husband dead (as we explained in the Mishnah).
