Bava Kama 68
1) [line 4] MIPNEI SHE'SHANAH B'CHEIT - because he repeated his sin (see
Insights)
2) [line 23] V'TISBERA HA METARTZESA HI - do you really think that this
Beraisa is correct?!
3) [line 38] AHANU MA'ASAV - his acts were effective (i.e. the sale was
valid)
68b---------------------------------------68b
4) [line 10] L'ALTAR - immediately
5) [line 11] GENEIVAH B'NEFESH - the stealing of a person (kidnapping), in
which case the victim certainly does not have Yi'ush, and yet the thief is
Chayav if he sells the kidnapped person, even though the sale does not take
effect
6a) [line 32] LEFI SHE'EINO SHELO - since it is not his
b) [line 33] LEFI SHE'EINO BI'RESHUSO - since it is not in his physical
possession
7a) [line 34] TZENU'IN - (lit. modest) righteous individuals, who want to
help all people refrain from sinning
b) [line 34] HA'TZENU'IN MANICHIN ES HA'MA'OS V'OMRIM "KOL HA'NILKAT
MI'ZEH, YEHEI MECHULAL AL HA'MA'OS HA'ELEH" (KEREM REVA'I)
(a) In the first three years after a tree is planted, its fruits are called
Orlah and are Asurim b'Hana'ah, as it states in Vayikra 19:23. The fruits of
the fourth year are called Neta Reva'i and are Kodesh (holy) (ibid. 19:24).
They must be brought to and eaten b'Taharah in Yerushalayim. Alternatively,
the fruits may be redeemed (Pidyon), in which case the money used to redeem
them is brought to Yerushalayim. The food that is bought with this money is
Kodesh like Neta Reva'i and must be eaten b'Taharah in Yerushalayim.
(b) The Gemara (Berachos 35a) records an argument as to whether the laws of
Neta Reva'i apply to all fruits or only to grapes (Kerem Reva'i). The
Halachah in Eretz Yisrael follows the opinion that the laws of Neta Reva'i
apply to all fruits (SHULCHAN ARUCH Yoreh De'ah 294:6).
(c) The Tzenu'in (see entry 7a), who feared that passers-by would eat their
Neta Reva'i fruit without permission and without knowledge that it was Neta
Reva'i, would designate coins and declare that the Kedushah of any Neta
Reva'i fruit taken by passers-by is hereby redeemed upon this money, thereby
permitting the Neta Reva'i fruit to be eaten.
8) [line 39] TZEI TEN LO - if the Beis Din said, "Go give him (pay him
back)"
9) [line 40] KEIVAN D'PASKUHA L'MILSEI - since they passed his verdict
