What methods can be used to fix an enclosure larger than beit saatayim (5,000 square cubits) that was not enclosed for living purposes in order to allow one to carry within the space? If done in a particular manner, one can either put up a new wall (debate regarding how far it needs to be from the new wall or if it can even be put up on top of the existing wall) or make the space smaller than or equal to beit saatayim. Is the issue regarding how a wall can or cannot be built the same as building a wall in property in order to acquire property that a convert without inheritors left after dying (that is considered ownerless property)? There is a case of a woman who tried to acquire ownerless property of a convert after his death but since it was done incorrectly and someone else acquired it in the correct manner after her, she was not granted the land. In exasperation, she started screaming but there was nothing to do to help her as she hadn't done it in the proper manner. What is the law regarding an enclosure that was a beit saatayim with a wall separating it from a courtyard, in the case where the wall was breached? Can one carry in the enclosure or in the courtyard?
