**כְּלֵי מַתָּכוֹת פְּשׁוּטֵיהֶן טְמֵאִים.** דְּלֹא אִתַּקַּשׁ לְשַׂק:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
כלי מתכות פשוטיהן טמאים (metal vessels: their flat parts are impure) – for there is no analogy to a sack (see Leviticus 11:32; “And anything on which one of them falls when dead shall be impure: be it any article of wood, or a cloth, or a skin or a sack – any such article that can be put to use shall be dipped in water and it shall remain impure until evening; then it shall be pure; also see Tractate Kelim, Chapter 2, Mishnah 1: “Vessels of wood, and vessels of leather, and vessels of bone and vessels of glass: when they are flat, they are clean, and when they form receptacles, they are [susceptible of becoming] unclean.”).

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
חזרו לטומאתן הישנה – The Sages made a decree regarding metal vessels that he melted them and made from them new vessels, that they return to their former defilement/uncleanness. This is a decree lest they say that the breaking of these utensils purifies them and their immersion [in a Mikveh] purifies them. Just as their breakage does not require the coming of sunset, for behold, we use them the entire day that they were defiled and he broke them and he returned and made of hem new [vessels], so [also] their being immersed does not require the coming of sunset, and it comes to make the heave offering and Holy Things in vessels that their sunset had not as yet arrived (see Talmud Shabbat 16b – this is the ordinance of Shimon ben Shetach).

**לֹא לְכָל טֻמְאָה אֶלָּא לְטֻמְאַת הַנָּפֶשׁ.** רַבָּן שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן גַּמְלִיאֵל סָבַר דְּטַעֲמָא דְגָזְרוּ עַל כְּלֵי מַתָּכוֹת שֶׁיַּחְזְרוּ לְטֻמְאָתָן יְשָׁנָה אֵינָהּ אֶלָּא גְזֵרָה שֶׁמָּא תִשְׁתַּכַּח תּוֹרַת מֵי חַטָּאת מִן הַכֵּלִים, שֶׁאֵין לְךָ אָדָם מַמְתִּין שִׁבְעַת יָמִים אֶלָּא שׁוֹבְרָן מִיָּד וְחוֹזֵר וְעוֹשֶׂה אוֹתָן חֲדָשִׁים, הִלְכָּךְ לֹא גָזְרוּ אֶלָּא לְטֻמְאַת מֵת בִּלְבַד שֶׁצְּרִיכִים הַזָּאַת שְׁלִישִׁי וּשְׁבִיעִי. וְאֵין הֲלָכָה כְּרַבָּן שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן גַּמְלִיאֵל:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
לא לכל טומאה אלא לטומאת נפש – Rabban Shimon ben Gamaliel holds that the reason that they (i.e., the Rabbis) decreed regarding metal vessels that they return to the former uncleanness is not other than a decree lest the law of the waters of purification be forgotten from the vessels, for there isn’t a person that waits seven days but rather he breaks them immediately and makes from them (i.e., the vessels) anew, therefore, they didn’t decree other than regarding defilement from a corpse alone that requires sprinkling [of a mixture of ashes of the red heifer with special water] on the third and seventh days (see Numbers 19:12: “He shall purify himself with it on the third day and on the seventh day, and then be pure.”). But the Halakha is not according to Rabban Shimon ben Gamaliel.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
טהורים – for we are not concerned in all of these that perhaps they came from an impure vessel and he returned and made from them [another] vessel, they returned to their earlier defilement, for all of these did not appear to be able to receive defilement ever, because they are unfinished vessels [lacking a receptacle], and unfinished metal vessels are not susceptible to receive defilement. And this is taught in the Tosefta (see Tosafot Yom Tov on this entry which referred me to Kelim Bava Metzia 2:17: “And what are the unfinished wooden objects which are unclean? Whatever one is destined to smooth, to scrape, to hollow out or to plane. [If] they lacked a cup, a border, an ear, or a hand, they are unclean. [If] they lacked hollowing, they are clean” (see also Tractate Kelim, Chapter 12, Mishnah 8). And which are those unfinished metal vessels? That which are destined to smooth, to adorn with designs, to scrape/plane, to make a rim by hollowing out the center/rounding off, and to beat with a mallet, that which is missing a chain surrounding the rim of the vessel or a handle is pure.
