    MISHNAH: He who sells a ship sold the mast, and the sail, and the anchors, and all steering gear, but he neither sold the slaves, nor the storage bags, nor the load. If he said, “it and all that is in it,” all is sold. He who sold a truck “two-wheeled cart”. did not sell the mules; he who sold the mules did not sell the truck. He who sold the yoke did not sell the cattle; he who sold the cattle did not sell the yoke. Rebbi Jehudah says, the price is an indicator. How is that? If he said to him, sell me your yoke and harness for 200 denars 8:8. , it is obvious that yoke and harness are not worth 200 denars. But the Sages say, the price is no indicator. He who sells a donkey did not sell its gear. Nahum the Mede says, he sold the gear. Rebbi Jehudah says, sometimes it is sold, sometimes it is not sold. How is this? If a donkey was standing there with his gear on it and he said, sell me this donkey, his gear is sold; your donkey, for this one the gear is not sold. He who sells a donkey sold the foal; he who sold a cow did not sell its young. He who sold a dungheap sold the manure; he who sold a cistern sold its water. He who sold a beehive sold the bees; he who sold the dovecote sold the pigeons. He who bought the yield of a dovecote leaves the first brood to fledge, of a beehive takes three swarms and then intermittently, honeycombs leaves two honeycombs, olive trees to cut down leaves two handbreadths. HALAKHAH: “He who sells a ship.” etc. It was stated: He who sells a ship sold the ladder to enter the ship. and the water tank in it but did not sell the sleeping gear, nor the mats, nor the barge nor the rowboat), rowboat and fishing boat are one and the same, except that בוצית is Babylonian and דוגית Palestinian usage.. . Symmachos says, he sold the fishing boat. 2:5, Notes 73–89 . The conditions of land use attributed to Joshua are discussed in the Babli in Bava qamma 80b–82a . Since the distribution of land by Joshua was irrelevant for the Second commonwealth, a reference to “conditions of Joshua” is simply one to common law. In Tosephta Bava qamma Chapter 8 , Joshua is not mentioned. The conditions which Joshua imposed. Rebbi Levi ben Birai in the name of Rebbi Joshua ben Levi: four. One may collect grasses everywhere except from a field of fenugreek where it is forbidden because of robbery. There 2:5 . , we have stated: “Or fenugreek where grasses appeared, one does not require him to weed.” So is the Mishnah: One does not require him to uproot. As one of Joshua’s conditions you say, one may collect grasses everywhere except from a field of fenugreek where it is forbidden because of robbery. This implies that he does not want them. He said, there if he sowed it to make sheaves, but here when he sowed it for seeds . Did Joshua made conditions for the benefit of sinners ? Rebbi Samuel bar Naḥman in the name of Rebbi Jonathan: He would like it if they were uprooted and lying before him. And he mentions a vineyard field, as Rebbi Yannai R. Zeriqan in the name of the House of R. Yannai. said: all spontaneous growth25:5 , 11 . is forbidden except for what appears on a fallow field, or a field ready to be ploughed under, a vineyard or a field grown for seeds . A fallow field, for he does not care. A field ready to be ploughed under, for he wants to improve his field. A vineyard, not to forbid his vineyard.) . A field grown for seeds, for he does not want it; and if you say he does, he would like it if they were uprooted and lying before him. 9:3, Notes 119–134 . The Babli ( Bava qamma 81a ) notes that one of Joshua’s stipulations was that a “corpse of obligation”, an unattended corpse found far from any organized settlement, must be buried on the spot it was found. There, we have stated 9:3 . : “If somebody find a corpse in original position, lying as usual, he takes him and his surroundings.” Rav Ḥisda said, this implies that it is permitted to remove a corpse of obligation, since we have stated: “he takes him and his surroundings.” And how much? Rebbi Samuel in the name of Rebbi Jonathan: Up to three finger-breadths, the place where fluid penetrates. Rebbi Ze‘ira says, this is not reasonable; it is forbidden to remove a corpse of obligation. If you would say, it is permitted to remove him, since you are going to ruin the whole field, would it be permitted to remove him? Since it is obvious for the Tanna that it is forbidden to remove a corpse of obligation, therefore, one needs the Mishnah. Rav Ḥisda said, it follows him who said, it is permitted to remove a corpse of obligation; I am saying that he was buried on a permitted path. But whould one not have to worry that maybe he was a corpse of obligation? Corpses of obligation are infrequent. One walks on permitted paths from the moment the harvest is cleared up to the second rainfall 6b ). , and one may take shoots to plant from everywhere except from olive trees and vines. From olives trees from the very young and the very old, but if it was like a ṭrgwl for טרגול (Krauss). Possibly טרגול is forbidden as looking like something used at the Athenian festival of the Thargelia, at which first fruits and humans were sacrificed (E. G.)? even from the very young it is forbidden. Rebbi Tanḥum from Kefar Gun in the name of Rebbi Eleazar ben Rebbi Yose: Four. One collects grasses from everywhere on condition that one not uproot. And one relieves himself behind a wall. 81a . Rebbi Eleazar ben Rebbi Yose in the name of Rebbi Tanḥum: Up to a place where he lets wind and is not heard. And one grazes in forests, even the tribe of Jehudah in the tribe of Naftali, and one gives Naftali an entire region South of the lake, as it is said, “lake and South of it he inherits, 33:23 ; cf. Tosephta Bava qamma 8:18 , Sifry Deut. 355, Babli Bava qamma 81b . Since the territory of Naftali was the North-East corner of the Land of Israel, Joshua could not have understood the verse to mean: “West and South he inherited.” The location of Naftali therefore is validly discussed among the rules attributed to Joshua. ” the words of Rebbi Yose the Galilean. Rebbi Aqiba says, “lake” is Lake Samokhonites, “and South” is Lake Tiberias. 2:9, Notes 347–353 . And one may step to one side. Rav Jehudah in the name of Rav: Even into a field full of saffron. How? Does one have to pay or not? Since Rav Jehudah said, even into a field full of saffron, that means, one pays pay.” The next sentence shows that the reading of L is correct. The argument here is that saffron is so valuable that any stepping into the field causes considerable damage to the farmer; it is unconscionable that he should not be indemnified. . Rebbi La said, since Rav Jehudah said, even into a field full of saffron, that means, one does not pay. But one cannot deviate more than necessary. Let us hear from the following: 2:9, Notes 347–353 . Rabban Gamliel and Rebbi Joshua were on the road [and stepped aside because of obstacles on the road] when they saw Jehudah ben Pappos, who was sinking, coming towards them. Rabban Gamliël said to Rebbi Joshua: Who is this one who makes an exhibition of himself? He answered: This is Jehudah ben Pappos, all whose deeds are done for Heaven’s sake. Rebbi Samuel in the name of Rebbi Jonathan: If one wants to build a new village, one gives him four roads to the four directions of the compass. Rebbi Ḥanina asked before Rebbi Mana, how? From four cubits to eight or from eight to sixteen? He told him, from eight to sixteen so that one truck may leave and the other come.

    MISHNAH: He who buys two trees on another’s property did not acquire the land; Rebbi Meїr says, he acquired the land. If they grew, he need not cut them. What grows from the stem is his, from the roots is the owner’s of the ground. If they died, he has no land. If he bought three, he bought the land. If they grew, he has to cut them. What grows from the roots is his. If they died, he has the land. HALAKHAH: “He who buys two trees on another’s property,” etc. (The words) [In the House of] Rebbi Yannai they said, what sees the shadow is root, what sees the sun is stem. Rebbi Ḥama bar Uqba in the name of Rebbi Yose: What grows from its roots and its stem is root, from its stem but not its roots is tree. Rebbi Joḥanan said 1:2, Note 18 ). , he who buys three trees buys the land in between them, under them, and outside of them the width of the harvester and his bag 1:2 Note 19 ) . Rebbi Eleazar said, while he has no access, he has the width of the harvester and his bag outside of them.

    MISHNAH: He who sells the head of a large animal did not sell the feet; if he sold the feet he did not sell the head. If he sold the windpipe “windpipe” (Pliny) (E. G.)} he did not sell the liver; if he sold the liver he did not sell the windpipe. But for a small animal, if he sold the head he sold the feet18:3 ). ; if he sold the feet he did not sell the head. If he sold the windpipe he sold the liver; if he sold the liver he did not sell the windpipe. HALAKHAH: “He who sells the head of a large animal,” etc. Rebbi Isaac asked: If he sold half of the head, did he sell half of the legs? If he sold half of the windpipe, did he sell half of the liver? [If he sold half of the liver,] did he sell half of the windpipe? Let us hear from the following: “If he sold him the entire foot, the entire head, the entire intestines, he gives to the Cohen and does not deduct from the price 9:8–9 ; Babli Ḥulin 132a . . If he bought by weight, he gives to the Cohen and deducts from the price.”

    MISHNAH: Four situations for sellers. If one contracted to sell high quality wheat and it turned out to be low quality, the buyer may annul the contract. Low quality and it turned out to be high quality, the seller may annul the contract. Low quality and it turned out to be low quality, high quality and it turned out to be high quality, neither of them may annul the contract. Brown grain and it turned out to be white grain, white grain and it turned out to be brown grain, olive wood and it turned out to be sycamore wood, sycamore wood and it turned out to be olive wood, wine and it turned out to be vinegar, vinegar and it turned out to be wine, either of them may annul the contract. If somebody sold produce to another and this one moved it without measuring, he took possession 1:5 ; Bava meṣia‘ 4:2. . If he was measuring without moving, he did not take possession. If he is intelligent, he rents its place 1:5 . . If somebody buys flax from another he he did not take possession until he moved it from place to place; but if it still was standing on the ground and he plucked anything, he took possession. If somebody sold wine or oil to another and it rose or fell in price, if it was before the measure was filled it is for the seller, after the measure was filled for the buyer. If a broker was involved and the amphora broke, it broke for the broker. He is obligated to let it drip three drops. If he tilted and emptied it, [the remainder] is for the seller. The grocer does not have to let it drip three drops 3:8 reports that a grocer who was a holy man never emptied measuring cups into his client’s vessel but gave them his measuring vessel so they could pour themselves and take all the time to empty the vessel to the last drop.) . Rebbi Jehudah says, Friday evenings close to sundown he is not liable. HALAKHAH: “Four situations for sellers.,” etc. How is this? If the measuring vessel belonged to the seller, he has the property rights, if to the buyer, he has the property rights. Rav Jehudah in the name of Samuel, Rebbi La in the name of the Great Rebbi Jehudah, so is the Mishnah: If the measuring vessel belonged to a third person. It was stated: Rebbi Jehudah says, Friday evenings close to sundown he is not liable since he has permission, but the Sages say, in any case he is liable contradicts the Mishnah which frees the retail grocer from the obligation to wait for three drops. . What is the reason for what Rebbi Jehudah said? “If he is hired, it is paid for by his wages. 22:14 . The quote has nothing to do with the preceding baraita but refers to the sentence in the Mishnah which holds the broker responsible for the delivery; in Tosephta 5:2 this is R. Jehudah’s opinion. The verse quoted states that if a hired animal dies, the fee paid for it represents indemnification. The fee paid to the broker is indemnification for the risk which he assumes. Pseudo-Jonathan translates the verse: “If he works for a fee, his loss is covered by his fee.” ”

    MISHNAH: Somebody sent his son to a grocer who measured him oil for an assarius and he gave him the assarius ; if he broke the flask and lost the assarius to get oil for an assarius and an assarius in change. But the ms. evidence and Maimonides’s text do not support the emendation. , the grocer is liable. Rebbi Jehudah holds him not liable since for that he sent him. The Sages agree with Rebbi Jehudah that if the flask was in the child’s hand and the grocer measured into the flask, the grocer is not liable. The wolesaler cleans his measuring vessels once every thirty days, the householder every twelve months. Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel says, it is the other way around. The retail grocer cleans his measuring vessels twice a week, wipes his weights clean once a week, and cleans his scales after each weighing. Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel said, when has this been said? For fluids, but for dry matter it is not necessary; he has to let [the scales] bend down a handbreadth. If he weighed strictly by eyesight he has to give him surplus, one tenth for fluids and one twentieth for dry products. At a place where one is used to small measures he should not use large ones, to large measures he should not use small ones, to level one must not heap, to heap one must not level. HALAKHAH: “Somebody sent his son to a grocer,” etc. Rebbi Abba bar Mamal said, for the tenths he has to let bend down a handbreadth. It is written 19:36 . : “Fair scales, fair weights.” From here 25:15 : “A full and fair weightstone you shall have, a full and fair ephah you shall have, that your days be prolonged on the land which the Eternal, your God, gives to you.” the Sages said that any commandment whose reward is noted, the court is not warned about. “You shall have, 25:15 ; in Lev. 19:36 the plural is used, יִהְיֶה לָכֶם. It is a generally accepted talmudic principle of interpretation that a commandment formulated in the plural is addressed to every individual. In Lev. 19:36 , the verse ends: I am the Eternal, your God, I Who took you out from the land of Egypt, on which Sifra Qedošim Pereq 8(10 ) notes: “On condition that you accept the obligation of fair measures, for every person who accepts the obligation of fair measures confirms the Exodus, and everyone who violates the obligation of fair measures negates the Exodus.” But commandments in the singular are considered as commandments in the collective, addressed to the community. ” appoint market overseers2:1 (23c l. 26, Note 22 ) the transliteration is אגורנימום. over this 294. This inference clearly contradicts the prior statement that oversight over measures is not a public duty. . Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya said, so is the baraita : Any commandment whose reward is noted the court is not punished about. Rav was appointed market overseer by the Head of the Diaspora; he intervened about measuring vessels but not prices also, control of prices is described as an anomaly. . The Head of the Diaspora jailed him. Rav Qarna went to see him and said, the market overseer about whom they spoke was for measures but not prices. He answered, but you had stated: the market overseer is for both measures and prices. He said to him, go out and tell them, the market overseer is for measures but not prices. He went out and said to them, a person who teaches hidden things they send to jail! At a place where one is used to small measures he should not use large ones, to large measures he should not use small ones, to level one must not heap, to heap one must not level.
