Whence now does R'Judah infer the law concerning a broken plate? - He derives it from the [fact that instead of] 'the forehead' the text has 'his forehead'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' In the phrase 'On his forehead continually', R. Judah derives the law of the broken plate from the use of the possessive.');"><sup>5</sup></span>
