Reference for Taanit 49:8

תנא הגיעו עד שיצאו אמה לכאן ואמה לכאן ויש אומרין סניפין עשאום תניא פלימו אומר אני ראיתי אותו הבית והיו קורותיו יוצאות אמה לכאן ואמה לכאן ואמרו לי בית זה שקירה ר' חנינא בן דוסא בתפלתו

A Tanna taught: They projected one cubit on either side. Some say, New pieces joined themselves [miraculously] to the beams.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' [Aliter: (a) They (the angels) made (added) new joints to them (R. Gershom) . (b) They made of them (the lengthened beams) new joints');"><sup>4</sup></span> It has been taught: Polemo says: I saw that house and its beams projected one cubit on either side, and people told me: This is the house which R'Hanina B'Dosa covered with beams, through his prayer. Whence did R'Hanina B'Dosa have goats seeing that he was poor?
