משנה: יָשַׁב אֶחָד עַל הַפֶּתַח וְלֹא מִילְאָהוּ וְיָשַׁב הַשֵּׁנִי וּמִילְאָהוּ הַשֵּׁנִי חַייָב. יָשַׁב הָרִאשׁוֹן עַל הַפֶּתַח וּמִילְאָהוּ וּבָא הַשֵּׁנִי וְיָשַׁב לוֹ בְצִידּוֹ אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁעָמַד הָרִאשׁוֹן וְהָלַךְ לוֹ הָרִאשׁוֹן חַייָב וְהַשֵּׁנִי פָּטוּר. לְמַה זֶּה דוֹמֶה. לְנוֹעֵל אֵֶת בֵּיתוֹ לְשׁוֹמְרוֹ וְנִמְצָא צְבִי שָׁמוּר בְּתוֹכוֹ: MISHNAH: If one sat in the door opening but did not fill it9In this case the deer could escape if it passed by the person sitting in the door opening. While this is unlikely, legally the deer is not caught. and a second person came and filled it, the second is liable. If the first one sat in the door and filled it when the second came and sat next to him, even though the first one got up and left, the first is liable and the second not liable. To what can this be compared? To one who locks his house in order to watch it and it turns out that a deer is kept inside10If the door was locked without the person knowing that a deer was inside there could be no liability since there could be no intention..
הלכה: ז׳. רִבִּי שַׁמַּי בָעֵי. מָהוּ לִיתֵּן לִפְנֵיהֶן מְזוֹנוֹת. ייָבֹא כְהַהִיא דְתַנִּינַן תַּמָּן. אֵין נוֹתְנִין מַיִם לִפְנֵי דְבוֹרִים וְלִפְנֵי יוֹנִים שֶׁבַּשּׁוֹבָךְ. שֶׁאֵין עוֹשִׂין תַּקָּנָה לְדָבָר שֶׁאֵינוֹ מִן הַמּוּכָן. וְהָכָא כֵן. HALAKHAH: 7. Rebbi Shammai asked, may one feed them81In the interpretation of S. Liebermann, the three questions of R. Shammai refer to the three statements of R. Yose ben R. Abun in the name of Rav Ḥuna. This first question is about caring for a wild animal legally caught on the Sabbath.? It comes following what we have stated there82Shabbat 24:3:1" href="/Jerusalem_Talmud_Shabbat.24.3.1">Mishnah Šabbat 24:3.: “one does not provide water to bees and to pigeons in a dovecot,” for one cannot provide for something which is not prepared83Anything which is not potential food on the Sabbath.. And here it is the same.
רִבִּי שַׁמַּי בָעֵי. מָהוּ לְכַפּוֹת עָלָיו כֶּלִי. ייָבֹא כַּהִיא דְאָמַר רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֵּירִבִּי יַנַּאי. אֲנִי לֹא שָׁמַעְתִּי מֵאַבָּא. אֲחוֹתִי אָֽמְרָה לִי מִשְּׁמוֹ. בֵּיצָה שֶׁנּוֹלְדָה בְיוֹם טוֹב סוֹמְכִין לָהּ כֶּלִי בִּשְׁבִיל שֶׁלֹּא תִּתְגַּלְגֵּל. אֲבָל אֵין כּוֹפִין עָלֶיהָ כֶלִי. שְׁמוּאֵל אָמַר. אַף כּוֹפִין עָלֶיהָ כֶלִי. רִבִּי שַׁמַּי בָעֵי. מָהוּ לְקוֹשְׁרוֹ בְחֶבֶל. ייָבֹא כַּהִיא דְאָמַר רִבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר. מוּתָּר לְהִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ עַל צִידְדֵי בְהֵמָה בַּשַּׁבָּת. הִיא צִידְדֵי בְהֵמָה הִיא צִידְדֵי אִילָן. כָּל־שֶׁמּוּתָּר לְהִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ עַל צִידְדֵי בְהֵמָה מוּתָּר לְקוֹשְׁרוֹ. כָּל־שֶׁאָסוּר לְהִשְׁתַּמֵּשׁ עַל צִידְדֵי בְהֵמָה אָסוּר לְקוֹשְׁרוֹ. Rebbi Shammai asked, may one put a vessel over it84This refers to the third statement. If in rescuing a person from a collapsed house one finds a hoard of coins, may one cover these on the Sabbath?? It comes following 85Shabbat 4:2:6" href="/Jerusalem_Talmud_Shabbat.4.2.6">Chapter 4, Notes 40–41. The parallel formulation in Shabbat.42b">Babli 42b is not applicable to the question raised here. what Rebbi Simeon ben Rebbi Yannai said: I did not hear from my father; my sister told me in his name. For an egg which was laid on the Sabbath one leans it against a vessel so it should not roll off. But one does not cover it with a vessel. But Samuel says, one even may cover it with a vessel. Rebbi Shammai asked, may one tie it86The deer which was found in the house when it was locked. with a rope? It comes following 87Shabbat 5:2:2" href="/Jerusalem_Talmud_Shabbat.5.2.2">Chapter 5, Notes 41–42. Shabbat.154b">Babli 154b. what Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar said, it is permitted to use the sides of an animal on the Sabbath. There is no difference between sides of an animal and sides of a tree. In any case where one is permitted to use the sides of an animal one is permitted to tie it; in any case where one is prohibited to use the sides of an animal one is prohibited to tie it.
