*********************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 Mishnah, Gemara and Rosh.
[1] Gemara 32a [line 38]:
The words "Atristun l'Kivli àúøéñúåï ì÷áìé
should be "Atristun l'Kivlan" àúøéñúåï ì÷áìï (as it appears in the Rosh and Rabeinu Gershom)
[2] Rosh 32a [end of page]:
There are a number of sentences missing from the Perush ha'Rosh; they can be found in the Shitah Mekubetzes of Rav Ilan
[3] Gemara 32b [line 9]:
Should be corrected as suggested by Shitah Mekubetzes #1 (and by the Be'er Sheva)
[4] Rosh 32b DH Gehinom ã"ä âäéðåí:
The words "mi'Nehar Dinur" îðäø ãéðåï
