Reference for Niddah 10:20
רשב"ג אומר
refers to a case] where her friends were carrying her in the bed so that the latter may be regarded as the hand of her friends.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The hand, being part of a human being who is well able to answer questions, is justly compared to the sotah whose doubtful uncleanness is regarded as unclean. It is for a similar reason (that things handled by a human being are regarded as his hand), it may be added, that the things the woman handled when sitting on the bed are regarded as unclean even where the bed was resting on the ground, and this explains why the objection supra was raised in connection with the bed and not in connection with the things the woman has handled.
