FOOTNOTES:

==========

(1) According to Rav, and according to Rebbi Yochanan in the Yerushalmi, "Moneh" is considered to be a more contradictory testimony than "Klal" (see Insights). (2) It seems from the wording of Ma'arava that "Klal" is considered to be a more contradictory testimony than "Moneh." In the case of "Moneh," even Beis Shamai agrees that the witnesses join.
