Or, to put it a little differently, neither of these 2 halachos is a shiur 4 amos -- it's a shiur of "ish tachtav" (at least according to the Rambam). If you are talking amos, then we can talk amos beinoniyos, but if we are talking about what "ish tachtav" means, how can you remove the relative human element?Chaim B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02231811394447584320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-51098133286562389122020-02-10T14:12:12.748-05:002020-02-10T14:12:12.748-05:00Are you asking why the din mekomo by the gavra in ...Are you asking why the din mekomo by the gavra in techum is different than the din mekomo by the cheftza by tiltul?
