Mareh Mekomos

Begin on 45a at the beginning of the gemara and learn until the two dots at the last narrow line. See Rashi and tosfos dh bekolo. Is zimun min hatorah or miderbanan? See Ritva here dh deksiv and Meiri dh veinyan zimun. When the gemara asks mena hani mili about zimun, which aspect of zimun is it asking about? See Rashi dhmena hani mili with Pnei Yehoshua on the Rashi. On the gemara that learns out of Moshe that a metargem may not raise his voice above the Rav, what is the proof from the passuk? See tosfos dh bekolo and see Mahrsha on tosfos and in Chidushei Agados. See the shidush of the Rambam in this din in hilchos talmud torah perek 4 halacha 3. The gemara appears to contradict the Rambam? Regarding the question that we spoke about, what should one with regards to zimun if he wants to leave a chasunah early, Igros Moshe (Orach Chaim siman 56) discusses this.

Mareh Mekomos:

Begin on 45a at the mishna. Learn the mishna with Rashi and tosfos dh shlosha. What is Demai and Kusi? See Rav (Bartenura) in mishnayos that explains these two terms. What does the end of mishna mean when it says “ad kamah mezamnim”? See Rashi dh ad kamah. see Pnei Yehoshua on Rashi dh shamash that explains why the mishna says that the shamash ate a kazayis, something that the mishna doesn’t mention earlier. He also explains Rashi dh mezamnim. After learning tosfos dh shlosha, there should be some clarity regarding the question, what is considered eating together in order to be mitztaref for a mezuman. See Rabeinu Yonah on 32b dh shlosha that brings a machlokes and ultimately he says not like tosfos. See Shulchan aruch siman 193 sif 2 (mechaber) with taz sk 6 and Mishna Brura for further discussion of this point.
