1)

(a)If someone drags a purse without straps which is full of money from the owner's domain to his own, and places it half in the owner's domain and half in his own, under which circumstances will he ...

1. ... acquire the money that is inside his domain,

2. ... not acquire it?

(b)In which case will he not acquire its contents even if it has stitches?

(c)What problem do we still have with this? Bearing in mind that there are straps, why ought he to be Chayav to pay in any case?

(d)One answer we give is that the Tana is speaking in a case where there are no straps. What is the other?

2)

(a)We initially establish Rava like Chizkiyah ('Agad Kli Lo Sh'mei Eged'). What does Abaye hold?

(b)What do we conclude?

(c)In an independent Machlokes, Abaye holds that someone who carries fruit into the street in his hand is Chayav; in a Kli, he is Patur. What does Rava say?

(d)Why, according to Rava, is he ...

1. ... Patur be'Yad?

2. ... Chayav bi'Cheli?

(e)How do we reconcile Rava's latter ruling with our previous conclusion?

3)

(a)We just concluded that Rava holds 'be'Yad Chayav'. How will we reconcile this with the Mishnah in the first Perek, which declares Patur, a poor man and a rich man who transfer bread or a basket from one domain to the other with their hands (which seems to hold 'Yado Basar Gufo Gereirah')?

(b)Why then, is he ...

1. ... Patur when the hand is above three Tefachim?

2. ... Chayav when the hand is lower than three Tefachim?

4)

(a)What does our Mishnah say about someone who carries with his left hand, in his bosom or on his shoulders?

(b)How do we learn this from ...

1. ... the 'Masa Bnei Kehas'?

2. ... Elazar ha'Kohen, who carried the oil for the Menorah, the Ketores ha'Samim and the Shemen ha'Mishchah (besides the Minchas Chavitin which he carried on his shoulders).

(c)What does the Tana say about someone who carries on Shabbos 'ke'le'Achar Yad'?

(d)He includes in 'ke'le'Achar Yad', carrying with the back of one's hand, with one's feet, one's mouth, under the arm-pit, and in one's ear or hair. Which other three cases (besides in one's shoe or sandal) does the Mishnah include in ke'le'Achar Yad'?

5)

(a)Rebbi Elazar declares Chayav someone who carries above ten Tefachim. But do we not already know this from our Mishnah, which includes someone who carries on his shoulders among those who are Chayav for carrying?

(b)Is someone who throws above ten Tefachim also included in Rebbi Elazar's ruling?

(c)What do we learn from the juxtaposition of the Mizbe'ach to the Mishkan (in Bamidbar)?

(d)How does this prove Rebbi Elazar's statement?

6)

(a)The Levi'im may well not have been as tall as that, in which case, Rebbi Elazar's proof will be from the Aron. What is the proof from there?

(b)Why can we not prove that the Levi'im were indeed ten Amos tall, from Moshe, who most certainly was?

(c)How do we know that Moshe must have been at least ten Amos tall?

(d)How do we reconcile the ten Amos that we ascribed to the Mizbe'ach with the Pasuk in Terumah, which gives its height as three Amos?

7)

(a)Rav quotes Rebbi Chiya as saying that someone who carries on his head should be Chayav, because that is what the men of Hutzal used to do. What objection do we raise to Rav's statement?

(b)What will the Din then be if someone from Hutzal carries out in this manner, since that is what the people of his town do?

(c)Then what did Rav quote Rebbi Chiya as saying?

92b----------------------------------------92b

8)

(a)What Halachic distinction does our Mishnah draw between somebody who intends to carry something in the street in front of him, and he inadvertently carries it behind him (e.g. it moves round to the back), and vice-versa?

(b)On what grounds does the Mishnah then declare a woman Chayav whether the article she attached to her underwear moved from the back to the front or from the front to the back?

(c)Who were the Mekablei Pesakim?

(d)The Tana introduces 'ha'Ishah Chogeres be'Sinar' with the words 'be'Emes Amru'. What is the significance of these words?

(e)What was Rebbi Elazar referring to when he remarked on our Mishnah 'Tavra, Mi she'Shanah Zu, Lo Shanah Zu'?

9)

(a)What did Rava comment on Rebbi Elazar's remark? Why does he not consider the two rulings contradictory?

(b)How does Rebbi Elazar deal with the discrepancy in the inferences of the two sections of our Mishnah, where the Reisha implies that someone who deliberately carries behind him is Chayav, and the Seifa, that he is Patur?

(c)What is the reason of those who say Patur?

(d)Rav Ashi does not consider this a discrepancy. How does he reconcile the Seifa with the Reisha without the inference? On what basis does he consider there to be more reason to declare Chayav someone who deliberately carries behind him, than someone who intended to carry behind him, and ends up inadvertently carrying in front of him?

10)

(a)And we cite a Beraisa which declares Chayav someone who carries something in his money-belt. Rebbi Yehudah rules that he is Chayav even if he wears it upside-down. Why is that?

(b)What do the Chachamim say?

(c)What do the Chachamim counter when Rebbi Yehudah asks them whether they do not agree with him that someone who deliberately carries an article behind him is Chayav?

(d)What do we try to extrapolate from Rebbi Yehudah's question?

(e)How do we refute this proof from the Chachamim's counter question whether he does not agree with them that someone who carries ke'le'Achar Yad is Patur?

11)

(a)We therefore retract from our original interpretation of the Machlokes. How in fact will they hold regarding someone who ...

1. ... deliberately carries behind him?

2. ... carries ke'le'Achar-Yad?

(b)What is then the basis of their Machlokes?

(c)Regarding the Mekablei Pesakim discussed by Rebbi Yehudah in our Mishnah, to which of the king's professional men does it apply?

12)

(a)What does our Mishnah rule with regard to two people who carry a loaf into the street?

(b)The Tana Kama concedes that if they carry an object that neither of them could have carried on his own, they are Chayav. What does Rebbi Shimon say?

13)

(a)Rav Yehudah Amar Rav (or Abaye or the Tana of a Beraisa) states that in a case where two people carry an article into the street, and either of them could have carried it on his own, then Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Shimon both declare him Patur. What does Rebbi Meir say?

(b)If neither could have carried it on his own, then Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Meir both declare him Chayav. What does Rebbi Shimon say?

(c)What does Rav Yehudah Amar Rav say in a case where one of them is able to carry it and the other one is not?
