Zevachim 111

ZEVACHIM 111-112 - these Dafim have been dedicated anonymously l'Iluy Nishmas Tzirel Nechamah bas Tuvya Yehudah.

1)

(a) The Tana Kama of a Beraisa declares someone who pours three Login of wine ba'Chutz, Chayav.
What does Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon say?

(b) Rav Ada b'rei de'Rav Yitzchak establishes their Machlokes by Birutzei Midos.
What are 'Birutzei Midos'?

(c) What is then the Machlokes?

2)
(a) According to Rabah b'rei de'Rava, the Machlokes is based on whether Yisrael brought Nesachim in the desert or not (to which we referred a little earlier). Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon holds like Rebbi in a Beraisa, who states 'Bamas Yachid Einah Tzerichah Nesachim'. The Tana Kama holds like the Chachamim.
What do they say?

(b) The above Machlokes in turn, hinges on another Machlokes. Rebbi Yishmael in a Beraisa learns from the Pasuk in Sh'lach-Lecha (in connection with the Nesachim) "Ki Savo'u el Eretz Moshvoseichem" that a Bamah Gedolah requires Nesachim.
How does he extrapolate from the same Pasuk that this applies to a Bamah Gedolah, and not to a Bamah Ketanah?

(c) Acording to Rebbi Akiva, the Pasuk is referring to a Bamah Ketanah. How does he learn this from "Moshvoseichem"?

(d) How will Rebbi Yishmael explain "Moshvoseichem"?

3) What does Rebbi ...
  1. ... Yishmael extrapolate from the fact that the Pasuk is referring to Bamos Tzibur?
  2. ... Akiva extrapolate from the fact that the Pasuk is referring to Bamos Yachid?
4)
(a) What reason does Rebbi Yochanan ascribe to Rebbi Nechemyah, who declares Chayav someone who pours the Sheyarei ha'Dam, ba'Chutz?

(b) On what grounds does Rebbi Akiva in a Beraisa, query Rebbi Nechemyah?

(c) What did Rebbi Akiva retort when Rebbi Nechemyah countered from Eivarim u'Pedarim, for which one is Chayav ba'Chutz, despite the fact that they too, are Sheyarei Mitzvah?

(d) What do we ask on Rebbi Yochanan from this Beraisa? According to him, what should Rebbi Nechemyah have replied?

(e) How do we initially reply to that Kashya?

5)
(a) We nevertheless get round it by citing Rav Ada bar Ahavah.
How does Rav Ada bar Ahavah establish the Machlokes in 'Eizehu Mekoman' regarding whether 'Sheyarim Me'akvin' or not?

(b) How do we then establish ...

  1. ... Rebbi Nechemyah in our Mishnah?
  2. ... the Machlokes between Rebbi Nechemyah and Rebbi Akiva in the Beraisa?
(c) What problem do we have with this, based on Rebbi Nechemyah's reply to Rebbi Akiva?

(d) How do we resolve the problem?

What does he hold?

(b) What is he then referring to when he concludes 'Chutz min ha'Shochet bi'Fenim u'Ma'aleh ba'Chutz'?

(c) On what grounds will the blood of the one exempt the Basar of the other from Me'ilah (despite the fact that it is Pasul, and not fit for the Kohanim to eat)?
