Talmud for Shabbat 7:1

תמן למה הוא חייב. תמן הוא זרק ואחר קיבל. ברם הכא הוא זרק הוא קיבל. ותהא פשיטא ליה שהוא פטור. אילו זרק בימין והוציא וקלט בשמאל שמא אינו חייב מן הדין פיו. ופיו לאו כאחר הוא. וכא שמאלו כאחר הוא. א"ר יודן פשיטא ליה לר' יוחנן שזרק בימין וקלט בשמאל שהוא חייב. ומה צריכה ליה בזורק בימין וקלט בימין. רבנן דקיסרין ר' שמי בשם ר' אחא אפילו זרק בימין וקלט בשמאל צריכה לה חייב. אין תימר פיו. ופיו כיון שאוכלה כאחר הוא. ברם הכא ידו כאחר הוא. ר' מנא בעי מעתה הוציא כגרוגרת בשתי ידיו יהא פטור משום שנים שעשו מלאכה אחת. א"ל ר' חייא בר אדא ודא הוא בעשותה. ולא כן תני יחיד שעשאה חייב. שנים ג' שעשו פטורין. א"ר יוחנן היה עומד בר"ה וקלט גשמים מאויר מחיצות והוציא חייב. רבי בון בר חייה בשם ר' זעירא בחוטף כן הא אם קלט פטור. מה בין נתן לו אחר מה בין נתנו לו שמים. אתייא כר'. דר' עבד אויר מחיצות כממשה. היה עומד בפנים וידו מלאה פירות. פשוטה לחוץ וקדש עליו היום אסור להחזירה. ר' אחא בשם ר' בא כמאן דמר אסור להשתמש באויר עשרה. אית תניי תני מותר. הוין בעיי מימר מאן דמר מותר בשיש שם רוחב ד'. ומאן דמר אסור בשאין שם רוחב ד'. אמר רבי יוסי בי רבי בין זה ובין זה כמאן דמר אסור להשתמש באויר עשרה. מיי כדון מאן דמר אסור למטה מעשרה. ומאן דמר מותר למעלה מעשרה: העני חייב ובעל הבית פטור. רב יהודה בשם שמואל והוא

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). In standing up to recite the Prayer ('Amida), the feet must be met. There are two opinions on this subject, viz. that of R. Levi, and that of R. Shimon. The one says: it is to imitate the angels; the other says: it is to imitate the priests. The latter opinion is founded on the verse, " Neither shalt thou go up by steps to mine altar" (Exod. xx. 2); for the priests had to go to the altar by placing the toe beside the heel, and the heel beside the toe (i.e. by taking very little steps). The former opinion is based on the verse, " And their feet were straight feet" (Ezek. i. 7). Now, II. Hanina bar-Andira, in the name of R. Samuel bar-Zootai, says : The angels have no knee-joint, according to (Dan. vii. 16), " I came near unto one of them, that stood (always) by.'" R. Hoona says: If one sees the priests in the Synagogue at the time of their first blessing of the people, one must say: «' Bless the Lord, ye his angels" (Ps. ciii. 20); if at the second benediction: "Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts" (Ps. ciii. 21); if at the third benediction: "Bless the Lord, all his works" (Ps. ciii. 22). For the Prayer of Mousaph (additional)

MISHNAH: One who brings out wine to mix a cup1As explained in the Halakhah, the normal size of a cup is an Italic quartarius, 0.133 1 or 4.5 US fl. oz. Wine was never drunk unmixed; the standard is one part of wine for three parts of water. This makes the volume of wine needed for one cup 0.0331 1 or 1 1/8fl. oz., milk for a sip, honey to put on a sore spot, oil to anoint a small limb2A small limb of a newborn baby., water to mix eye salve3Chapter 7, Note 344., and all other fluids by a quartarius, and all waste water by a quartarius. Rebbi Simeon says, all are by a quartarius; these measures were said only for those who store them4He holds that people do not store a volume less than a quartarius of any fluid; therefore smaller amounts create liability only for persons who would store smaller amounts. Cf. Chapter 7, Note 458..

Jerusalem Talmud Bava Kamma

MISHNAH: There are four main categories of damages1Most rules of payment for damages may be derived from the examples of damages treated in Ex. 21–22, as explained in the Halakhah.: The bull2An agressive bull goring with his horns; Ex. 21:28–32;35–36., and the pit3A person digging a pit in the public domain is responsible for any damage caused by his action; Ex. 21:33–34., and the devourer4Damage caused by an animal other than goring: feeding (“the tooth”) and trampling (“the foot”), Ex. 22:4. The Aramaic root בעי is found in Pseudo-Jonathan to Num. 22:2 as translation of Hebrew לחך “to devour”. The unusual expression מַבְעֶה is used to subsume two legal terms under one., and the setting on fire5Ex. 22:5.. The bull is not like the devourer, nor the devourer like the bull6Since goring, trampling, and devouring are all ascribed to the same animal, the question arises why the bull has to be mentioned in two different categories both in the Mishnah and in the biblical text. The details are given only in the Babli: An animal which gores is intent on causing damage; therefore the rules are different for known agressive or generally not agressive animals since these require different levels of supervision. But the rules for damage caused by feeding and trampling are the same for all animals.; neither of them who are alive is like the pit7It is obvious and confirmed by all other sources that the positions of “pit” and “fire” have to be switched. which is not alive, nor either of them which move in causing damage is like the fire7It is obvious and confirmed by all other sources that the positions of “pit” and “fire” have to be switched. which does not move in causing damage. The common theme of them is that they are usually causing damage and you are obligated to watch them, and if damage was caused the person causing the damage is obligated to pay the damages in best quality land8If the person causing the damage cannot pay, the person collecting damages can foreclose the culprit’s land with the highest value per unit of surface area. As biblical law, this applies to damages caused by unattended animals, Ex. 22:4..

MISHNAH: If one throws from a private domain to the public domain or from the public domain to a private domain or from a private domain to another private domain when a public domain is between them, Rebbi Aqiba declares him liable1Under certain conditions as discussed in the Halakhah. but the Sages declare him not liable2Since motion requires start and finish, they consider it a Sabbath violation only if either one of start or finish was in a private and the other in the public domain or both in the public domain at a distance greater than 4 cubits..
