Menachos 030b: Plowing with its mother
A Glatt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> asked:
I can not understand the shita (number 3) on daf 30b regarding the words
that the shita inserts: "vechoresh im imo" - how can a ben pekuah plow
with its mother? Is this a misprint? What is pshat?
Thank you.

The Kollel replies:
You appear to be correct; if the mother was slaughtered she cannot be
plowing. I suppose it ought to say "v'Choresh Im *Aviv*." Male bulls were
probably used for Charishah more often than female cows in either case.
I could not verify the Girsa change or find a matching Girsa in either
Chulin 74b (or Mishnayos Chulin) or here, though. The Dikdukei Sofrim cites
the Shitah in a footnote, quoting it as it appears in our Gemara.
