Ein Shvus baMikdash: The Kohein's Injured Finger

אֵין שְׁבוּת בַּמִּקְדָּשׁ: כֹּהֵן שֶׁלָּקָה בְאֶצְבָּעוֹ
Mishnah עירובין י׳:י״ד · Eiruvin 10:14
כֹּהֵן שֶׁלָּקָה בְאֶצְבָּעוֹ,
כּוֹרֵךְ עָלֶיהָ גֶמִי בַמִּקְדָּשׁ,
אֲבָל לֹא בַמְּדִינָה.
אִם לְהוֹצִיא דָם, כָּאן וְכָאן אָסוּר.
בּוֹזְקִין מֶלַח עַל גַּבֵּי כֶבֶשׁ בִּשְׁבִיל שֶׁלֹּא יַחֲלִיקוּ,
וּמְמַלְּאִים מִבּוֹר הַגּוֹלָה וּמִבּוֹר הַגָּדוֹל בַּגַּלְגַּל בְּשַׁבָּת,
וּמִבְּאֵר הַקַּר בְּיוֹם טוֹב.
A kohein who hurt his finger —
he wraps gemi on it in the Mikdash,
but not in the medinah.
If [done] to draw blood, in both the Mikdash and the medinah — forbidden.
They scatter salt on the ramp to prevent slipping;
and they draw from the Bor HaGolah and the Bor HaGadol with a wheel on Shabbos,
and from Be'er HaKar on Yom Tov.

what does this mean?

A reading aid, not an exact translation.

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.

Structure
Transcript
A machine transcript of the recorded shiur.

This is the shiur as spoken, transcribed automatically and left unedited — the wording is Ephraim's, and occasional transcription errors remain. It follows the audio word by word.

Mishnah Insights
An amalgam of commentaries, including original insights.

These insights draw on the commentaries to this Mishnah and on the recorded shiur. Those commentaries often rest on earlier sources — the Gemara, the Yerushalmi, the Rishonim, and one another — without always saying so; where they do, we generally cite the one we read. Every commentary consulted is kept, verbatim, with this page.
