''Excising the Gid Hanasheh (Sciatic Nerve)"
On this daf the Talmud relates a story, that shows us the great fear the rabbis had anyone violating Torah prohibitions.
It happened that Bar Piyouli was standing before Shmuel and was excising the gid hanasheh ( One is prohibited to consume the gid hanasheh) from a piece of thigh meat.
He was cutting it flush off the surface, in accordance with the opinion of Reb Yehuda.
Shmuel said to him
" Dig deeper into the meat,..... had I not witnessed this myself, you would have fed me something forbidden."
When Bar Piyouli heard that Shmuel was accusing him of feeding him that which was prohibited, he got frightened and the knife fell from his hand!
Shmuel to comfort him, said:
" Do not fear, I am not accusing you of being ignorant or negligent, I understand that the one who taught you how to excise the gid hanasheh, taught you in accordance with the opinion of R Yehuda, that one can remove the part of the gid hanasheh that is Biblically prohibited, but the meat surrounding it, does not have to be removed."
However my opinion is in accordance with R' Meir that one has to remove the meat that is attached to the gid hanasheh as well, I therefore suggested that you "dig deeper."
DIN: I am paraphrasing the words of Shmuel!
