(a)Having just learned from the Pasuk in Metzora "be'Lo Es Nidasah" that a woman can only become a Zavah after the period of Nidus has ended, what do we learn from the Pasuk there "O ki Sazuv"?

(b)How many days does this incorporate?

(c)How do we then know that she can become a Zavah from the fifth day (of the period of Zivus) through to the tenth?

(d)What is noteworthy about the 'two' mentioned in the list of the days that we learn from "O ki Sazuv" (see Tosfos DH 'O ki Sazuv")?

2)

(a)What do we learn from "Al Nidasah" (see Maharsha)?

(b)Why do we need a special Pasuk for the eleventh day? Why is it not incorporated in the previous set of days?

(c)And from where do we know that the twelfth day (the first day of Nidus) is not included in "al Nidasah", to combine with the two previous sightings, to render her a Zavah?

3)

(a)In the Pasuk in Metzora "Kol Yemei Zov Tum'asah ki'Yemei Nidasah Tih'yeh, Temei'ah hi", what does the Tana learn from the word ...

1. ... "Yemei"?

2. ... "Kol"?

(b)He learns from "Temei'ah" that a Zavah renders the man with whom she performs Tashmish, Tamei, like a Nidah. What does he learn from "Hi"?

(c)Regarding the last D'rashah, we would otherwise have thought that a Zav is Metamei whoever he is Bo'el, based on a Kal va'Chomer. Which Kal va'Chomer?

(d)In the Pasuk there "Kol ha'Mishkav asher Tishkav alav Kol Yemei Zofah ke'Mishkav Nidasah Yih'yeh lah", the Tana learns from "ke'Mishkav Nidasah" that a Zavah is Metamei Mishkav and Moshav. What does he then learn learn from ...

1. ... "Yemei"?

2. ... "Kol Yemei"?

4)

(a)The Tana finally learns from "Yih'yeh lah" that she observes one clean day for one sighting of Zivus and not seven. From where does he learn that the same applies to her second sighting?

(b)We might have otherwise thought that she must observe seven clean days, Kal va'Chomer from Zav. Which Kal-va'Chomer?

(c)What Kashya do we ask from here on the earlier assumption that the eleventh day is Halachah or Halachos?

(d)To answer the Kashya, we conclude that according to Rebbi Elazar ben Azaryah, they are indeed Halachah, just like the half a Log of oil regarding the Chalos and wafers of a Nazir. Who is then the author of the Beraisa?

5)

(a)On what basis did Rav Sh'maya (or Rebbi Yeshayah) suggest that perhaps a woman is a Zavah only if she sees by day, but should her sighting occur at night, she will always be a Nidah?

(b)In reply, Rebbi Aba cited the Pasuk "al Nidasah". What did he extrapolate from there?

6)

(a)We cite a Beraisa which discusses someone who learns Halachos every day. What is Halachos referring to?

(b)What does the Tana say about someone who does that?

(c)How does he learn this from the Pasuk in Chavakuk "Halichos Olam lo"?

(d)Why is this Beraisa mentioned here (see Tosfos DH 'Tana de'bei Eliyahu')?
