Siman 375 — The Gallery of the Upper Rooms, and What Does Not Forbid in the Courtyard

The Gallery of the Upper Rooms, and What Does Not Forbid in the Courtyard

4 seifim in the Shulchan Aruch of the Mechaber; 5 in the Shulchan Aruch HaRav, under its own numbering. Do the residents of the upper rooms, who go down to the courtyard by the ladder of their gallery, forbid the residents of the courtyard? And to whom do the mound and the pillar between the courtyard and the gallery, and the ledges of the walls between the courtyard and the upper room, go, when they did not make an eruv together? The siman answers, among other things, according to the ladder, the eruv the residents of the gallery make among themselves, the height of ten tefachim and the distance of four tefachim, the matzeivah in front of the gallery and the height of the ledges.
