14)[line 1]טיט הנרוקTIT HA'NIROK- mud [loose enough to be] poured [from one utensil to another]
15)[line 1]ארבעים סאהARBA'IM SE'AH (MIKVAH)
(a)If a person (or utensil) becomes Tamei, then he (or it) must be immersed in either a Mikvah (a cavity of gathered rainwater) or a spring as part of the purification process.
(b)A Mikvah must contain at least forty Se'ah of rainwater for it to be Metaher. This is equal to approximately 288, 331.78 or 576 liters, depending upon the differing Halachic opinions.
(c)Rainwater cannot be Metaher when it is flowing. This is derived from the verse which describes a "Mikveh Mayim" - an accumulation of water (Vayikra 11:36). Furthermore, the rainwater in the Mikvah must have fallen into it directly or have flown into it along the ground. Any water that has been drawn in a vessel is termed "Mayim She'uvin" and is disqualified for use as a Mikvah. After a Mikvah has forty Se'ah in it already, Mayim She'uvin may be added. If three Lugin (approximately 36, 41.47, or 72 liters, depending upon the differing Halachic opinions) are added prior to that stage, however, then they render the Mikvah invalid.
16)[line 2]הטובל בוHA'TOVEL BO- a) one who immerses in the Tit ha'Nirok that joined with the water in the Mikvah (RASHI); b) in forty Se'ah of Tit ha'Nirok (TOSFOS DH Tit)

18a)[line 6]הגביהה מן הקרקע טפחHIGBIHAH MIN HA'KARKA TEFACH- he raised [either the tent or the lean-to] from the ground the height of a Tefach a) without filling the space in between, since Lavud fills in the space at a right angle to the ground (RASHI); b) and he filled in the space at a right angle to the ground (TOSFOS DH she'Im)
b)[line 6]הפליגה מן הכותל טפחHIFLIGAH MIN HA'KOSEL TEFACH- he distanced the top of the lean-to from the wall a distance of a Tefach a) without filling the space in between, since Lavud fills in the space at a right angle to the wall (RASHI); b) and he filled in the space at a right angle to the wall (TOSFOS DH she'Im)
19)[line 8]שיפועי אהלים כאהלים דמוSHIPU'EI OHALIM K'OHALIM DAMEI- the slanted wall of a tent has the same Halachic status (namely, that of an "Ohel") as a wall that rises perpendicular to the ground
