Halakhah for Eruvin 101:16

א"ר פפא בדיק לן רבא עמוד ברשות הרבים גבוה י' ורוחב ד' צריך הן ואלכסונן או לא ואמרינן ליה לאו היינו דרב חנניה דתניא רב חנניה אומר כזה יהו כל שובתי שבת:

since Scripture said: This shall be to them the open land about the cities<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Num. XXXV, 5.');"><sup>44</sup></span> which implies: In this case only<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' That of the open land for the Levites.');"><sup>45</sup></span> sides must be allowed<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Sc. they must be given the benefit of the corners also.');"><sup>46</sup></span> but not in that of those who observe the Sabbath rest.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The latter are allowed only a radius of the prescribed distances.');"><sup>47</sup></span>

Shulchan Arukh, Orach Chayim

2. What is the private domain? A place surrounded by walls that are ten tefachim that is four by four, or a pit that is ten tefachim deep and four by four, or a hill that is ten tall and four by four. Rem"a: Some say that the diagonal also must be four tefachim, like we will explain below in chapter 349. (Hagahos Ashiri; Tosefos)
