Zevachim 24: The Holy Ground, Left Hand vs. Right Hand

Some brief points about today's day:

• the floor of the azarah, the outer courtyard, is holy
• can one stands on a stone that came loose from the azarah?
• the rabbis cannot solve this dilemma, but it is suggested that under the floor was sanctified as well
• why is receiving the blood with one's left hand patul, unfit because of an imperfection?
• the rabbis argue about whether or not the left hand can be used for different rites, ex. receiving the blood, by looking for connections between words used in different situations
• A number of different rites are compared in order to understand why the right hand must be used in some situations but not in all situations
