(a) What did the Mal'ach ha'Ma'ves tell Shmuel's father? Why does he not cut a person's throat like an animal?
(b) How do we reconcile this statement (implying that the Mal'ach ha'Ma'ves kills with his sword) with what we just learned (that it is the Mal'ach ha'Ma'ves poison that kills a person)?
(c) The Beraisa which attributes the putrid smell of a corpse to the drop of poison from the Mal'ach ha'Ma'ves' sword, supports a statement by Rebbi Chanina bar Kahana. What does Rebbi Chanina bar Kahana say about someone who wants to prevent his dead relative's corpse from smelling?
(d) What does the Beraisa learn from the juxtaposition of the Pasuk "Ve'nishmarta mi'Kol Davar Ra" (that we quoted earlier) to that of "Ki Yih'yeh b'cha Ish asher Lo Yih'yeh Tahor Mikreh Laylah"?

(a) Rebbi Yehudah permits selling to a Nochri a tree, Shachas (fodder or unripe crops) and standing corn, provided that the latter undertakes to cut it down. What does Rebbi Meir say?
(b) Having presented the Machlokes in the case of ...
1. ... a tree, why does the Tana find it necessary to repeat it in the case of standing corn? Why might we have thought that Rebbi Meir will concede to Rebbi Yehudah there?
2. ... a tree and standing corn, why does he need to repeat it in the case of Shachas? Why might we have thought that Rebbi Yehudah will concede to Rebbi Meir there?
3. ... Shachas, why does he need to repeat it in the case of the other two?
(c) We ask whether Rebbi Yehudah's leniency extends to selling the Nochri an animal on condition that he agrees to Shecht it. Why might it not?
(d) We resolve the latter She'eilah from a Beraisa. What does Rebbi Yehudah say there about selling a Nochri an animal on condition that he Shechts it?
