Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

The Gemara initially thought that Rav Yehuda requires four mechitzos for Reshus Hayachid.  If so how can one carry in a Mavoi that only employs a Korah (which is not considered a fourth mechitza)?

 

Eruvin 46 – עירובין מו

The Gemara says halacha can conclude like the yachid even in face of an opposing majority.  Why don’t we apply the din of ‘Acharei rabim lehatos’ (we are meant to follow the majority)?

According to the opinion of ‘Matin’ (we advise an individual to follow that shita, but don’t publicly advocate it) how can we support one halacha for the yachid, and another for the rabim?

If the object is not Muktza, it does not qualify for Tefisas Yad, since it can be discarded of by the tenant.  Why would this unauthorized action undermine the legitimate user right of the landlord?
