lest

<<he take it

<<in his hand

<<and carry it

<<four cubits

<<in the public domain.

<<Abaye said to him:

<<[if] he has

<<a pit

<<in his courtyard,

<<what

<<is there

<<to say?

<<He said to him:

<<a decree:

<<a pit

<<in his courtyard

<<because of

<<a pit

<<in the public domain.

That works for

<<Shabbos;

<<on Yom Tov,

<<what

<<is there

<<to say?

<<They decreed

<<Yom Tov

<<because of

<<Shabbos.

And do

<<we decree?

<<But

<<we learned:

<<and they agree

<<that one may connect

<<the water

<<in a vessel of

<<stone

<<to purify it,

<<but

<<not

<<immerse [it].

<<And if it were so,

<<let us decree

<<connecting

<<because of

<<immersing!

And can you understand it so?

<<If

<<he has

<<water

<<that is good,

<<these,

<<why does he need

<<to make

<<for them

<<a connection?

<<Rather,

<<where he does not have [it];

<<and since

<<he does not have [it],

<<he is very careful

<<with it.

He raised an objection to him:

<<one may draw [water]

<<with a bucket

<<that is impure,

<<and it becomes

<<pure.

<<And if it were so,

<<let us decree

<<lest

<<he come

<<to immerse it

<<by itself!

<<Different is

<<there:

<<since

<<not

<<it was permitted

<<to him

<<except

<<by way of

<<his drawing,

<<remembers

<<he.

He raised an objection to him:

<<a vessel

<<that became impure

<<on the eve of Yom Tov —

<<one may not

<<immerse

<<it

<<on Yom Tov;

<<on Yom Tov —

<<one may immerse

<<it

<<on Yom Tov.

<<And if it were so,

<<let us decree

<<[a vessel] of Yom Tov

<<because of

<<[one] of the eve of Yom Tov!

<<Impurity

<<on Yom Tov

<<a matter

<<that does not

<<commonly occur

<<is it,

<<and a matter

<<that does not

<<commonly occur,

<<not

<<did decree

<<about it

<<the Rabbis.

He raised an objection to him:

<<a vessel

<<that became impure

<<through a primary source of impurity —

<<one may not

<<immerse

<<it

<<on Yom Tov;

<<through a secondary source of impurity —

<<one may immerse

<<it

<<on Yom Tov.

<<And if it were so,

<<let us decree

<<this

<<because of

<<that!

A secondary source of impurity —

<<how

<<can you find it?

<<With

<<kohanim;

<<kohanim

<<are careful

<<they.

Come and hear:

<<for Rav Chiya bar Ashi said in the name of Rav:

<<a niddah

<<who has no

<<[clean] garments

<<may use artifice

<<and immerse

<<in her garments.

<<And if it were so,

<<let us decree

<<lest

<<she come

<<to immerse [them]

<<by themselves!

Different is

<<there:

<<since

<<not

<<it was permitted

<<to her

<<except

<<by way of

<<wearing [them],

<<remembers

<<she.

Rav Yosef

<<said:

<<a decree

<<because of

<<wringing.

Abaye said to him:

<<that works for

<<vessels

<<that are subject to

<<wringing

<<they are;

<<vessels

<<that are not

<<subject to

<<wringing

<<they are,

<<what

<<is there

<<to say?

<<He said to him:

<<a decree:

<<these

<<because of

<<those.

<<He raised as objections to him

<<all

<<these

<<refutations,

<<and he answered

<<him

<<as we answered.

Rav Bivi

<<said:

<<a decree,

<<lest

<<he delay.

<<It is taught

<<in accordance with

<<Rav Bivi:

<<a vessel

<<that became impure

<<on the eve of Yom Tov —

<<one may not

<<immerse

<<it

<<on Yom Tov,

<<a decree,

<<lest

<<he delay.

Rava

<<said:

<<because

<<he appears

<<as repairing

<<a vessel.

<<If so,

<<a person

<<too!

<<A person

<<appears

<<as cooling off.

That works for

<<water

<<that is good;

<<water

<<that is bad —

<<what

<<is there

<<to say?

<<Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak said:

<<at times

<<that a person

<<comes
