5)[line 39]במהBAMAH (BAMAH GEDOLAH / BAMAH KETANAH)
(a)A Bamah is a raised area used for sacrifices. Before the Beis ha'Mikdash was built (when the Mishkan was not in use), there were times when it was permitted to offer sacrifices on public altars (Bamas Tzibur or Bamah Gedolah) and private altars (Bamas Yachid) (see Insights to Pesachim 91:2).
(b)BAMAS TZIBUR: Only one public altar was in use at any particular time. At various times in our history, the Bamas Tzibur was in Gilgal (where the Mishkan stood before the land was completely conquered, until it was moved to Shiloh), Nov and Giv'on (after the Mishkan in Shiloh was destroyed, see Zevachim 112b). An individual could offer only voluntary sacrifices on a Bamas Tzibur. There is a difference of opinion among the Tana'im as to whether all communal sacrifices could be offered on a Bamas Tzibur or only the communal sacrifices that have a fixed time (Zevachim 117a).
(c)BAMAS YACHID: Any man, even if he was not a Kohen, could build a Bamas Yachid anywhere in Eretz Yisrael and offer upon it his personal sacrifices. Only voluntary sacrifices were allowed to be offered on a Bamas Yachid.

12a)[line 32]חברCHAVER
A person is called a Chaver if he accepts upon himself four things:
1.never to give Terumah and Ma'asros to an Am ha'Aretz;
2.never to prepare Taharos in the vicinity of an Am ha'Aretz;
3.to always eat Chulin b'Taharah;
4.to take Ma'aser from all produce that one eats, sells and buys (Tosefta Demai 2:2-3). The Gemara in Bechoros 30b explains exactly how one goes about accepting this distinguished status.

14)[line 37]כלי שנטמא אחוריו במשקין, אחוריו טמאיןKELI SHE'NITMA ACHORAV B'MASHKIN, ACHORAV TEME'IN (TUM'AS ACHOREI KELIM)
If liquids that are a Rishon or Sheni l'Tum'ah come in contact with utensils, they make them Tamei mid'Rabanan. In order to remember that the Tum'ah is only mid'Rabanan, the Chachamim stipulated that if the liquids only touched the outside of a wooden or metal utensil, only the outside becomes Tamei, and not the inside. There is no Tum'ah mid'Oraisa with such a property. (If a liquid, or anything Tamei for that matter, touches the outside of an earthenware utensil, the utensil does not become Tamei at all - RASHI.)

16)[line 41]"[יאמר לה בעז לעת האכל גשי הלם ואכלת מן הלחם וטבלת פתך בַּחֹמֶץ; ותשב מצד הקצרים] ויצבט לה קלי [ותאכל ותשבע ותתר]""... VA'YITZBAT LAH KALI [VA'TOCHAL VA'TISBA VA'TOSAR]" - "[And Boaz said to her when the meal-time arrived, 'Come over here and partake of the bread, and dip your morsel in vinegar.' So she sat beside the harvesters;] he handed her parched grain [and she ate and was satisfied and left some over]" (Ruth 2:14) (BOAZ INVITES RUTH TO PARTAKE OF THE MEAL)
Naomi returned destitute from the fields of Moav with her widowed daughter-in-law, Ruth. Ruth volunteered to go out to the fields to collect Leket, to which the poor are entitled. Unintentionally on her part, Ruth chose to collect in the portion of Boaz (a cousin of her deceased husband). When Boaz returned from Beis Lechem, he noticed Ruth's special qualities, and when his men informed him of her identity, he invited her to continue collecting in his field and to befriend the girls who worked for him. She acknowledged his kind words by falling to the ground before him, expressing how unworthy she was of his kindness. He told her how he was fully aware of the kindness that she performed with Naomi by leaving her homeland (where she had been a princess) to accompany Naomi back to a foreign land and a foreign people. He assured her that HaSh-m would repay her in full for having chosen to take shelter under His wings (i.e. to convert). After she once again referred to her unworthiness, Boaz invited her to join him and his workers for the midday meal.
