Jerusalem Talmud Bava Metzia 2:2

משנה: רִבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר. כָּל־דָּבָר שֶׁיֵּשׁ בּוֹ שִׁינּוּי חַייָב לְהַכְרִיז. כֵּיצַד מָצָא עִיגּוּל וּבְתוֹכוֹ חֶרֶס כִכָּר וּבְתוֹכוֹ מָעוֹת. רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר אוֹמֵר כָּל־כְּלֵי אֶנְפּוֹרִיָּא אֵינוֹ חַייָב לְהַכְרִיז. MISHNAH: Rebbi Jehudah says, anything out of the ordinary¹⁶The deviation from the norm serves as identifying mark. one has to make public. How is this? If he found a fig cake containing a potsherd, or a loaf containing coins. Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar said, merchandise of any kind¹⁷S. Lieberman, following B. Mussaphia, identifies as Greek ἐμπορία. If a new vessel is offered for trade and looks like any other new vessel of the same manufacture, no identification is possible. In the Tosephta, 2:1, R. Simeon ben Eleazar explicitly states that vessels which show signs of use must be advertised. one does not have to make public.

הלכה: רִבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר. כָּל־דָּבָר שֶׁיֵּשׁ בּוֹ שִׁינּוּי כול׳. תַּנֵּי. בִּמְשׁוּקָּע בּוֹ. הָכָא אַתָּ מַר. בִּמְשׁוּקָּע בּוֹ. וָכָא אַתָּ מַר. בְּנָתוּן בּוֹ דֶּרֶךְ הִינּוּחַ. הֵן דְּתֵימַר בִּמְשׁוּקָּע בּוֹ. בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים. וְהֵן דְּתֵימַר בְּנָתוּן בּוֹ דֶּרֶךְ הִינּוּחַ. בִּרְשׁוּת הַיָּחִיד. וַאֲפִילוּ בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים בְּנָתוּן בּוֹ דֶּרֶךְ הִינּוּחַ אֲנִי אוֹמֵר. דֶּרֶךְ נְפִילָה נָֽפְלָה עָלָיו. HALAKHAH: “Rebbi Jehudah says, anything out of the ordinary,” etc. It was stated: If it is embedded in it¹⁸Kneaded into the fig cake or baked into the loaf.. Here you say, if it is embedded in it. But there¹⁹Tosefta 2:8: One who found a container and produce in front of it, a wallet and coins in front of it, must make it public. you say, if it lies on top of it. When you say, if it is embedded in it, in the public domain²⁰Where the place is not a distinguishing mark.. When you say, if it lies on top of it, in a private domain. Maybe even in the public domain? If it lies on top of it, I am saying that if fell there.

רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר אוֹמֵר. כְּלֵי אֶנְפּוֹרִיָּא אֵינוֹ חַייָב לְהַכְרִיז. אָֽמְרָהּ רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן וְתַנֵּי לָהּ. וְאֵילּוּ הֵן. כְּגוֹן בַּדֵּי מְחָטִין וְצִינּוֹרִיּוֹת וּמַחֲרוֹזוֹת שֶׁלְּקַרְדּוּמוֹת. אֲמוֹרֵיהּ דְּרִבִּי יִצְחָק בַּר טֶּבְלַיי אַשְׁכָּח עֲזִיל כְּרִיךְ בְּמִקְטוֹרָה. אָתָא גַבֵּי רִבִּי יִצְחָק וְאוֹרֵי לֵיהּ כְּהָדָא דְרִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר דְּמַתְנִיתָן. אֲמוֹרֵיהּ דְּרִבִּי יוֹחָנָן אַשְׁכָּח עֲזִיל כְּרִיךְ בְּמִקְטוֹרָא. אָתָא לְגַבֵּי רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן. אָמַר לֵיהּ. הֵן אַשְׁכַּחְתִּינֵיהּ. בְּסִימְטָא. בְּפַלָטְיָא. דּוּ בָעֵי מִיפְתְרִינָהּ כְּהָדָא דְרִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר דְּמַתְנִיתָן. “Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar said, merchandise of any kind¹⁷S. Lieberman, following B. Mussaphia, identifies as Greek ἐμπορία. If a new vessel is offered for trade and looks like any other new vessel of the same manufacture, no identification is possible. In the Tosephta, 2:1, R. Simeon ben Eleazar explicitly states that vessels which show signs of use must be advertised. one does not have to make public.” Rebbi Joḥanan made this public and stated about it²¹Tosephta 2:1; Babli 24a.: “The following are these. For example needle strips²²Intact books of needles; an unused mass-produced article without individual marks., fire tongs²³Where it is easy to see that they were never used., and strips of axes²⁴Since one only uses one axe at a time, these were never used.. The Amora of Rebbi Isaac bar Tevlai found a web rolled in a scarf²⁵Latin amictorium “loose garment, throw, scarf, etc.”. Arukh explains as “burnoose”. In Ashkenazic rabbinic Hebrew used for “coat”.. He came before Rebbi Isaac bar Tevlai who instructed him following Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar. The Amora of Rebbi Joḥanan found a web rolled in a scarf. He came before Rebbi Johanan who asked him, where did you find it? In an alley²⁶Latin semita. A semi-private place, whose location might be a distinguishing mark and would have to be advertised., in a public square²⁷Latin platea, Greek πλατεῖα. Here R. Simeon ben Eleazar’s rule applies.? For he wanted to free him following Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar.
