May Hashem protect you as you do the work that enables our country to be free. עלה והצלח! The gemara brings a tannatic source to question Abaye's understanding of Rav Nachman regarding the size of a cubit (5 or 6 handbreadths). The gemara resolves the issue. The requisite amount, mechitza (separations) and chatzitza (one cannot be purified by a mikveh if there is a separation between the water and one's body) are all oral traditions passed down from Moshe at Sinai. The gemara questions each - aren't they mentioned in the Torah? The gemara explains what is meant by each term in order to answer the question.
