Begin on 48b, amar Rav Nachman, 7 lines from the top of the amud. Learn the gemara until the two dots 3 lines from the bottom. See carefully Rashi dh ubeshabbos and tosfos dh maschil. See Rif on 35b beginning from the first wide line amar Rav Nachman until tanya on the third line from the bottom that argues on this Rashi regarding what the addition is for Shabbos. See also Rambam hilchos berachos perek 2 halacha 5 that does not say like the Rif. See Mishnah Berurah siman 188 sif 4 to see how we pasken on this. Regarding the gemara that learns Birchas Hatorah out of a kal vechomer, does this mean that birchas hatorah is a bracha mideoraysah? See Maharsha in chidushei aggados dh kal vechomer (ko”ch).

Learn .גמרא כב  from “אמר רב הושעיא ” (three lines before the משנה) until the משנה

Question:
  • What is the כלאים in the case of שור פסולי מוקדשין ? (Three explanations ריב”ן “המרביע”, תוס’ ” שהרי”, ריטב”א “אמר )

Learn משנה and :גמרא כב  until first set of two dots.

The גמרא explains why we only give 39 lashes when the תורה says 40 from the way the תורה writes the order of the words in the פסוק.
Learn the ראשונים who seem to give an entirely different reason then the גמרא
See ריטב”א , and רמב”ם ה’ סנהדרין י”ז,א
Points to ponder:
  • How can they give a different reason then the גמרא?
  • What is a נפקא מיניה between the explanations?
– On previous גמרא:
The גמרא concludes משנה does not hold of איסור כולל .
  • So how could יו”ט be חל on שמיטה?
  • How could נזיר be חל on כהן?

Begin on 48A, at the two dots 9 lines from the top. Learn until amar Rav Nachman on 48B, 7 lines from the top. See tosfos dh tishah that discusses if one can be mitztaref a person that ate only vegetables to a zimun of three and if that is considered different from a zimun of ten. See also the opinion of the Rif (page 35b beginning from the third line from the top in the Rif). Is there an opinion in the gemara that holds that four vegetable eaters cannot be mitztaref to a zimun because we need a rov deminkar? See gemara that says “shisha vaday lo mibaye lee”. See Rashi dh he’ihu and the mesores hashas on the margin of the gemara that brings a different girsa. This will help explain the last few words in tosfos and the Rif that say that a rov deminkar is required. See Mishna Brura in siman 197 sif 2 and 3 for the halacha.

Learn .גמרא כב  from  אמר רבי זעירא ” (three lines before the wide lines ) until the משנה

Learn Rashi for introduction to  איסור כולל and  איסור מוסיף.

Learn תוס’ “מנהיג

Question:
  • Why did the גמרא ask from שבועה now after we already realized the משנה did not mention every option of לאו?
  • The גמרא concludes משנה does not hold of איסור כולל . So how could יו”ט be חל on שמיטה?
  • How could נזיר be חל on כהן?

Learn the gemara beginning on 47b, amar Rav Huna, 7 lines from the bottom. Learn until 48a, the two dots 9 lines down. See tosfos dh velays. Tosfos is very long. The main point to take out of tosfos if it is too lengthy to see the entire tosfos is to see from the beginning of tosfos until the first wide line that brings the shitah of Rabbeinu Tam regarding tziruf of a katan to zimun and tefilah. See Rif on 35a 3 lines from the bottom amar Rav Nachman until the 3rd line on amud beis that argues on Rabbeinu Tam. See Rambam hilchos brachos perek 5 halacha 7 at the end of the halacha that says like the Rif. See two opinions in Shulchan Aruch with Mishna Brura siman 199 sif 10. Eimek Bracha (page 60, birchas zimun) asks an interesting question according to Rabbeinu Tam.

Question:

The גמרא lists many additional לאוין that one could violate while plowing.  How does the גמרא answer why they are not included in the list of the משנה?  Learn “תוס’ ” מתקיף
