Original text
עכו"ם שהביא לולב לישראל מחוץ לתחום מותר ליטלו אפי' מי שהובא בשבילו: הגה ועיין לעיל סי' תקפ"ו סעיף כ"א וכ"ב וסי' ש"ז סעיף ג' אם מותר לומר לעכו"ם לילך אחריו או לחלל יום טוב בשבילו:
1. If a non-Jew brought a lulav to a Jew from outside of the techum, it is permitted even to the person that it was brought for. Rema: See 586:21, 586:22, and 307:3 for whether it is permitted to tell a non-Jew to walk [outside the techum] or to desecrate Yom Tov.
