The opening

Daf 2a

A sukkah which is more than twenty cubits high is not valid. Rabbi Judah validates it.

One which is not ten handbreadths high, or which does not have three walls, or which has more sun than shade, is not valid.

GEMARA. We have learned elsewhere: [The crossbeam] of an alley [whose entrance] is more than twenty cubits high should be lowered. Rabbi Judah says: this is unnecessary.

Now why is it different that when it comes to the Sukkah it is declared invalid, while with when it comes to [the cross-beam over] the alley, a remedy is indicated?

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
