Aramaic scholars out there? Under the verb repas, Pael "to shake, shatter" Jastrow gives "merapsan igarai" (I think that's how you'd vocalize it) from Kiddushin 63b. Maybe someone on the list can look it up? He translates the phrase of which this is part as "These my traditions are apt to shatter roofs (are hard to understand)."
