Daf 65b
Others say that Raba said: As permission had been given to remove [the others], he may remove them [all]. But why should not [the field] become a graveyard site? — Resh Lakish said: [The Rabbis] seized upon any pretext to declare the Land of Israel clean. Suppose he searched [beyond it] for twenty cubits [in one direction only] and did not find [another corpse], what is the law? — R. Monashya b. Jeremiah, citing Rab, replied: This is the graveyard site. What is the reason [that we say this?] — Resh Lakish said: They seized on any pretext to declare the Land of Israel clean. MISHNAH. EVERY DOUBTFUL CASE OF [LEPROUS] DISEASE ENCOUNTERED FOR THE FIRST TIME BEFORE UN CLEANNESS HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED IS CLEAN. AFTER UNCLEANNESS HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED DOUBTFUL CASES ARE UNCLEAN. GEMARA. How do we know this? — Rab Judah citing Rab, said: The verse says, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean. Scripture mentions cleanness first. In that case even after uncleanness has been established, doubtful cases should be clean? — We must therefore say that this dictum of Rab, quoted by R. Judah was uttered in connection with the following. [A Mishnah says:] If the bright spot appears before the white hair, he is unclean, but if the white hair appears before the bright spot he is clean. If there is a doubt, he is unclean. R. Joshua said: It is doubtful. What is meant by 'it is doubtful'? — Rab Judah replied: It is doubtful and [consequently] clean. May it not mean that it is doubtful and [consequently] unclean? — Rab Judah citing Rab said: The verse says, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it unclean; Scripture mentions cleanness first. MISHNAH. A PERSON SUFFERING FROM A FLUX IS EX AMINED REGARDING SEVEN THINGS, BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF GONORRHOEA HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, VIZ.: — WITH REGARD TO FOOD, DRINK, BURDENS,LEAPING, SICKNESS, A VISION OR AN IMPURE THOUGHT. ONCE GONORRHOEA IS ESTABLISHED, HE IS NO LONGER EXAMINED. [FLUX RESULTING] FROM AN ACCIDENT TO HIM, DOUBTFUL [FLUX]. AND HIS ISSUE OF SEMEN ARE UNCLEAN, FOR THERE IS A PRESUMPTION [OF UNCLEANNESS]. IF A MAN GIVES ANOTHER A BLOW FROM WHICH HE WAS EXPECTED TO DIE AND HE PARTIALLY RECOVERED AND THEN GREW WORSE AND DIED [THE OTHER] IS LIABLE [FOR MURDER]. R. NEHEMIAH EXEMPTS HIM SINCE THERE IS A PRESUMPTION [IN HIS FAVOUR]. GEMARA. How do we know this? — Nathan said: The verse says. And of the gonorrhoeic that have the issue, [whether it be a man or a woman]. [The male] at his third experience of issue is compared to the female. But have we not been taught: R. Eliezer Says: At the third [issue] we examine him but not at the fourth? In point of fact they disagree on [the question of stressing the particle] 'the'. R. Eliezer lays stress on [the particle] 'the', whilst the Rabbis do not do so. [FLUX RESULTING] FROM AN ACCIDENT TO HIM, DOUBTFUL FLUX:
