10)[line 1]גזלן דדבריהםGAZLAN D'DIVREIHEM - a person who is classified as a thief mid'Rabanan
(a)A person who steals must return the objects that he stole and do Teshuvah for his sins. Certain sins of theft also require that the thief bring a Korban (Vayikra 5:21-26). As long as he has not repented, he is defined as a Rasha (a wicked person) and is disqualified to judge or to give testimony in Beis Din mid'Oraisa (Sanhedrin 27a).
(b)Certain individuals are classified as thieves mid'Rabanan because they engage in activities that are prohibited mid'Rabanan out of their lust for money. Some of these Gazlanim mi'Divreihem are:
1.Mesachek b'Kuvya - a person who gambles with dice (or other forms of gambling - RAMBAM Hilchos Edus 10:4) as his only livelihood.
2.Mafrichei Yonim - people who race pigeons (or any other animal - RAMBAM ibid.) as their only livelihood.
3.Malvei b'Ribis - those who lend money without a pre-specified amount of interest (RAMBAM ibid.). According to TOSFOS Sanhedrin 24b DH v'Elu even if he lends money and specifies the Ribis, he is only disqualified mid'Rabanan, since people are not aware that they are transgressing the prohibition against taking Ribis when the borrower pays of his own free will.
4.Socharei Shevi'is - people who buy and sell produce of Shevi'is (see Background to Rosh Hashanah 22:3 and Insights to Sukah 39:2) nowadays.

14)[line 27]התרת נדריםHATARAS NEDARIM
When a person makes a Neder (or designates Chalah, Terumah or Kodshim) or Nezirus, he may have it revoked by a Beis Din of three (if they are not outstanding authorities) or a Yachid Mumcheh (an outstanding authority). The general method used is that Beis Din investigates whether the person would not have made the Neder in the first place had he been aware of a particular fact.
