ורבנן סברי

The text says, And if any one: 'And' implies an addition to the foregoing, so we therefore derive the law above from the law below.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., because of the connection established by the 'and', this inference is to be made in spite of the deduction by gezerah shawah to the contrary. This analogy based on the inner or logical connection between laws is known as a hekkesh.');">¹²</span>
