Mishnayos Maaser Sheni Perek 3 Mishnah 6

מעשר שני פרק ג׳ משנה ו׳

6

Produce whose processing was completed and it passed through Jerusalem, its second tithe must be brought back and eaten in Jerusalem. If its processing had not been completed, [such as] baskets of grapes [that were going] to the wine-press or baskets of figs [that were going] to the drying-place: Bet Shammai says: its second tithe must be brought back and be eaten in Jerusalem. But Bet Hillel says: it may be redeemed and eaten anywhere. Rabbi Shimon ben Judah says in the name of Rabbi Yose: Bet Shammai and Bet Hillel did not disagree concerning produce whose processing had not been completed that its second tithe may be redeemed and be eaten anywhere. What did they disagree about? About produce whose processing was completed. Bet Shammai says that its second tithe must be brought back and be eaten in Jerusalem. And Bet Hillel says that it may be redeemed and be eaten anywhere. [The second tithe of] demai may [always] be brought in and taken out again and be redeemed.

Bartenura

שנגמרה מלאכתן – for tithing, as is taught in the first chapter of [Tractate] Maaserot (Mishnah 5): “When is their harvesting time to make them liable for tithing?”

ועברו בתוך ירושלים – while they were still forbidden eatables, pending the separation of Levitical and priestly gifts (טבל).

יחזור מעשר שני שלהן – he should return their Second Tithes, for he holds that gifts that were not separated as offering (i.e., to be consecrated), are also like those which were consecrated, the sacred precincts [of Jerusalem] have retained it (and it cannot be redeemed and taken out of Jerusalem again – see Makkot 19b) for Second Tithe.

ושלא נגמרה מלאכתן – such as baskets of grapes for the vat for wine pressing, etc., but baskets of grapes for eating, have been completely harvested.

למוקצה – a place where we spread the dates out to dry which is called the storage of fruits/מוקצה.

רבי שמעון בן יהודה אומר וכו' – He thinks that according to the School of Hillel, gifts that were not separated as offering (i.e., to be consecrated) are not like similar to those which were consecrated; alternatively, even if they were similar to those consecrated, these words refer to [the matter] of the remainder of things, but since the matter of the sacred precincts [of Jerusalem] retaining them is Rabbinic, the School of Hillel is liberal. But the Halakha is according to Rabbi Shimon ben Yehuda, for the Schools of Shammai and Hillel did not disagree other than on fruit which had not completely harvested, according to the words of the First Tanna/teacher of the Mishnah.

והדמאי – eatables forbidden pending the separation of sacred gifts that had been doubtfully tithed.

נכנס – to Jerusalem

ויוצא ונפדה – outside of Jerusalem after it had left, and one is not required to return it [to Jerusalem]. And this concluding segment of the Mishnah, according to the first teacher [of the Mishnah] is necdssary and is according to the School of Hillel.

שנגמרה מלאכתן. למעשר, כדתנן בפ״ק דמעשרות איזהו גרנן למעשר:

ועברו בתוך ירושלים. בעודן טבל:

יחזור מעשר שני שלהן. דקסבר מתנות שלא הורמו כמי שהורמו דמיין, וקלטוהו מחיצות למעשר שני:

ושלא נגמרה מלאכתן. כגון סלי ענבים לגת וכו׳. אבל סלי ענבים לאכילה נגמרה מלאכתן:

למוקצה. מקום ששוטחין בו תאנים ליבש קרוי מוקצה:

רבי שמעון בן יהודה אומר וכו׳ סבר דלב״ה מתנות שלא הורמו לאו כמי שהורמו דמיין. אי נמי אפילו כמי שהורמו דמיין הני מילי [לענין] שאר דברים, אבל לענין קליטת מחיצות דרבנן, מקילין ב״ה. ואין הלכה כר״ש בן יהודה, שלא נחלקו ב״ש וב״ה אלא על פירות שלא נגמרה מלאכתן כדברי ת״ק:

והדמאי. טבל של דמאי:

נכנס. לירושלים:

ויוצא ונפדה. חוץ לירושלים אחר שיצא, ואין צריך לחזור. והך סיפא לתנא קמא איצטריך ואליבא דבית הלל:
