Please see write out the argument between Bais Hillel and Bais Shammai. Where they agree and where they argue, the difference between a cup and a bath. 

Quickly review the גמרא דף מב. “סבר רב יוסף למימר until אמר רב הונא בריה דרב יהושע (eight lines from the bottom of the Amud)

Tosfos (תוס’ “אבל) explains the אמבטיה in the Halacha of our Gemara is a Kli Sheini. 

Bring a proof from Rashi whether the bath is a Kli Rishon or a Kli Sheini 

See שער הציון ס’ שי”ח אות קה

The Ran says a chidush lhalacha that it is prohibited to pour an abundance of cold water into a bath that is a Kli Rishon.  Why?

Note that line towards the end “אבל באמבטיה שעומדים לרחיצה ”  

How is the Rashba different than the other explanations of the Rishonim?

Do we conclude lhalacha like Bais Hillel or like ר’ שמעון בן מנסיא?

Tosfos explains the אמבטיה in the Halacha of our Gemara is a Kli Sheini. 

Why is it forbidden to pour cold water into the bath if it’s a Kli Sheini?

According to Tosfos – Why does everyone agree it is forbidden to pour cold water into a bath – Kli Sheini – of hot water as a gezaira to prevent one from pouring into a Kli Rishon, yet to pour cold water into a cup which is a Kli Sheini is a dispute between Beis Shammai and Bais Hillel if we make a Gezaira?

Tosfos – תוס’ “נותן have a new explanation to the case of חמין לתוך צונן & צונן לתוך חמין different than Rashi. 

Rashi – dependant on the cup that is being poured into as that is תתאה גבר 

Tosfos – it is not dependent on תתאה גבר. Rather it’s dependant on volume. According to Bais Shammai if the hot water has a larger volume than the cold water than it is prohibited to mix the them.
