[Avodah] kenignaot

[Simon Krysl]

It is from the KSA, but it does appear n the Gemara as well.
Thanks so much for all the answers.
It is still strange - the Hebrew in my KSA explaining kenignaot as cet
chayot, and the translaton ignorng that explanation (in the Gemara, accordng
to Jastrow, the word can refer both to actual hunts and to animal games
(amphitheatre)  but since  know nothing about the editing hstory of the KSA
(where does such square bracket explanation come from) I will leave it at
that. Unless someone has more suggestions.

Many thanks to all,
SK
