MISHNAH: If one supports his sukkah by the frame of the couch it is qualified. Rebbi Jehudah says, if it cannot stand by itself it is disqualified.

HALAKHAH: Rebbi Immi said, because from the middle of the couch it is less than ten hand-breadths. Rebbi Abba said, because one does not base it on what is impure. But was it not stated, it happened that the people of Jerusalem were lowering their couches through their windows and putting thatching over them? If you are saying, because one does not base it on what is impure, here it is put on what is impure. Therefore the reason only is because from the middle of the couch it is less than ten hand-breadths.
