נגעים פרק ח׳ משנה ג׳
Bartenura
בהרת – like the size of a split [Cilician] bean.
ובה שער לבן – surely it comes to tell us that blossoming [of the bright white spot] purifies after all of the tokens/signs of defilement.
פרחה במקצתו טמא – it is necessary to inform us that even if it blossomed through most of his body, that we don’t say, the majority is like the whole. Alternatively it informs us that at the end of the first week or at the end of the second week he is impure with blossoming over part of his body even whatever the amount because of spreading.
בהרת. כגריס
ובה שער לבן. הא קמ״ל דפריחה מטהרת אחר כל סימני טומאה:
פרחה במקצתו טמא. אצטריך לאשמעינן אפילו פרחה ברובו, דלא אמרינן רובו ככולו. אי נמי אשמעינן דבסוף שבוע ראשון או בסוף שבוע שני טמא בפריחת מקצתו אפילו בכל שהוא משום פשיון:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
