Talmud for Bava Metsia 7:1

מציאת בנו ובתו הקטנים ועבדו ושפחתו הכנענים ומציאת אשתו הרי אילו שלו מציאת בנו ובתו הגדולים ועבדו ושפחתו העברים מציאת אשתו שגירשה אע"פ שלא נתן לה כתובתה הרי אילו שלהן:

R. Aha said: It is written (in Gen. xliv. 3): "As soon as the morning was light." The Tori calls the light "morning." R. Ishmael taught: It is written "every morning," so as to give a limit for him who desires to know when the morning commences. R. Yosse bar R. Aboon said: If you think to call night, the time that the sun takes to traverse the heavens (from dawn to radiancy), it would be equivalent to saying that the day and the night do not resemble each other (the night would lengthen out to the morning by this addition; but we are taught that on the first day of the Equinox of Nissan ', and on the first day of the Equinox of Tissri, the day and the night are equal). R. Hoona says: One can accept the usual custom as a term of comparison. Thus, when the king starts to go out, he is said to be out; but when he commences to return, he is not said to be returned, until it is an accomplished fact (it is the same with the sun).

MISHNAH: If somebody lease24Mishnah 7:8 states that the lessee pays for what is lost or stolen but not for what is robbed, or by natural causes is broken or dies. a cow from another person and then lends25The borrower pays for anything that happens to the object he rented (Mishnah 7:8). it out to a third person. If it died a natural death, the lessee shall swear that it died a natural death and the borrower has to pay the lessee. Rebbi Yose said, how can this one treat another person’s cow as his merchandise26Why should the lessee get the value of the cow and its owner get nothing?? But [the value of] the cow shall be returned to its owner.

Jerusalem Talmud Maasrot

From here129The Mishnah which states that a laborer can sign away his right to eat from the harvest for a financial consideration. Then he can also hire out his adult children or slaves without right to eat for additional payment. If he would sell himself as a Hebrew slave (assuming that the Jubilee laws are in effect, cf. Ševiït 1:1, Note 7), he could stipulate in exchange for a lump sum payment that his wife would not be supported by his master. they said, 130Mishnah Baba Meẓi‘a 7:6. That Mishnah is not discussed in either Talmud.“a person may renounce for himself, his adult son or daughter, or his adult male or female slave, or his wife, because they have a mind. But he may not renounce for his minor son or daughter, or his minor male or female slave, or his animal131He cannot rent out his animal for threshing and stipulate that it may be muzzled., because they have no mind.”
