What is a distant journey? From Modi'in and beyond, or a like distance in any direction —- [these are] the words of R' Akiva.  R' Eliezer says: From the threshold of the Temple Courtyard and beyond.  Said R' Yose: Therefore there is a dot over the letter hei, as if to say, not because it is literally distant, but rather from the threshold of the Temple Courtyard and beyond.
