(b) Resh Lakish asked Rebbi Yochanan why the Tana did not then include Ma'aser Sheini (together with of Kodshim Kalim) during this period.
What did the latter reply?

(c) What did Resh Lakish then ask Rebbi Yochanan from Pesach and Kodshim?

  1. ... "Menuchah"?
  2. ... "Nachalah"?

6)
(a) We learned in our Mishnah that if someone sacrificed ba'Chutz an animal during the era of Isur Bamos, that was declared Hekdesh during the era of Heter Bamos, he is not Chayav Kareis.

  2. ... "Ve'heinif ha'Kohen Lifnei Hashem" (Shemini) and "ve'Higishah el ha'Mizbe'ach" (Vayikra)?

(c) What is then Rabah's Kashya on Rami bar Chama?

(d) How do we amend the Beraisa to reconcile it with Rami bar Chama?

10)
(a) What does Rami bar Chama say in the second Lashon?

(b) What does Rabah then ask from the Beraisa?

(c) What do we answer?
