Rava: The third wall needs a tzuras hapesach [the look of a doorway]. (The tefach-board is split into two half tefachim which are placed at the two edges of the wall and they are topped with another board or a string). Ikka D’omri [a second version of Rava’s words]: The third wall can also use a tzuras hapesach. (Either do as Rabbi Simon [5.1], or create a doorway in place of the third wall).

Summary

Ikka D’omri [a third version of Rava’s words]: The third wall also requires a tzuras hapesach [in addition to the tefach, there should be a tzuras hapesach].

Rav Ashi saw [his rebbi,] Rav Kahana making a tzuras hapesach in addition to a tefach.._ He asked him, “don’t you hold like Rava [first Ikka D’omri] that one can use a tzuras hapesach for the third wall but it does not require one?”

Rav Kahana: I am following the third version of Rava’s words.

________

  • There is a discussion as to what the Gra’s opinion was whether this tefach was near the wall or in accordance with Rabbi Simon.
