Reference for Shabbat 10:3

אלא אמר רבא כגון שקלט מע"ג גומא גומא פשיטא מהו דתימא מים ע"ג מים לאו הנחה הוא קמ"ל

if it comes within ten handbreadths, he must turn the written side inwards.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' He must not draw it back, since it has entered public ground, so he reverses it, because it is degrading for a scroll to lie open with its writing upward. ');"><sup>5</sup></span> Now, we pondered thereon: why must he turn the written side inwards, surely it did not come to rest?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Hence he should be permitted to roll it back. ');"><sup>6</sup></span>
