Core Text
וכל הנשא מנבלתם. בְּכָל מָקוֹם שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר טֻמְאַת מַשָּׂא הִיא חֲמוּרָה מִטֻּמְאַת מַגָּע, שֶׁהַנּוֹשֵׂא טָעוּן כִּבּוּס בְּגָדִים:

English: Where the Torah speaks of impurity through carrying, it is more stringent than impurity through contact, because the carrier must wash his garments.

Type of Learning

Halachic distinction — The source interprets the verse through its wording and context.

What Is Learned

Rashi distinguishes impurity caused by carrying from impurity caused by mere contact: carrying is the more stringent category and requires washing the carrier’s garments.
