***************GIRSA SECTION******************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any OTHER important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos
[1] Gemara 119a [line 23]:
The word "b'Mashmishan" במשמישן
should be "b'Mishmushan" במישמושן in the entire Sugya, and in Rashi and Tosfos
(This is the way it appears in the Mishnayos and in the RAMBAM, RASH, and ROSH)
[2] Rashi 119a DH Kashya Seifa קשיא סיפא:
The words "mi'Tana Kama" מתנא קמא
should be "umi'Tana Kama" ומתנא קמא
[3] Rashi DH Iy Ba'is Eima be'Yad איבעית אימא ביד:
The words "Ela k'Chada" אלא כחדא
should be "Ela b'Chada" אלא בחדא
[4] Rashi DH v'Rebbi Yochanan ור' יוחנן (at the end of the Dibur):
The words "b'Shomer Lo Matzi l'Ukumah... d'Yesh Shomer l'Fachos mik'Pol" בשומר לא מצי לאוקומה... דיש שומר לפחות מכפול are superfluous
[5] Tosfos 119a DH v'Rebbi Yochanan Amar Kulah b'Yad uche'Tana Kama ורבי יוחנן אמר כולה ביד וכת'' ק:
The words "Hu ha'Din b'Shomer" הוא הדין בשומר
should be "v'Hu ha'Din b'Shomer" והוא הדין בשומר
[6] Tosfos 119a DH v'Rebbi Yochanan Amar Kulah b'Shomer v'Hu d'Amar k'Acherim ורבי יוחנן אמר כולה בשומר והוא דאמר כאחרים:
The words "ked'Piresh b'Kuntras" כדפירש בקונטרס should be after the word "Mairi" מיירי
[7] Gemara 119b [line 39]:
The name "Rebbi Ila'a" רבי אלעא
should be "Rebbi Ila'i" רבי אלעאי
[8] Rashi 119b DH Hach Kelipah הך קליפה:
The words "v'Lo Havu Shomrin" ולא הוו שומרין
should be "v'Lo Havu Shenei Shomrin" ולא הוו שני שומרין (SHITAH MEKUBETZES #7)
[9] Rashi DH b'Chad Dara בחד דרא:
The words "demi'Toch she'Kevu'im b'Dochak Miskayemes" דמתוך שקבועים בדוחק מתקיימת
should be "demi'Toch she'Kevu'im b'Dochak Miskaimos" דמתוך שקבועים בדוחק מתקיימות
