**טַבַּעַת אָדָם.** כְּגוֹן טַבַּעַת שֶׁל אֶצְבַּע. אֲבָל טַבַּעַת שֶׁהִתְקִינָהּ לַחְגֹּר בּוֹ מָתְנָיו וְלִקְשֹׁר בָּהּ בֵּין כְּתֵפָיו, טְהוֹרָה, וְהַיְנוּ טַבַּעַת כֵּלִים. וְטַעֲמָא, מִשּׁוּם דְּלֹא רַבֵּי קְרָא לְטֻמְאָה אֶלָּא תַכְשִׁיטֵי אָדָם וְלֹא תַכְשִׁיטֵי בְהֵמָה וְכֵלִים:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
טבעת אדם – as for example the ring of a finger. But the ring that they established to gird his loins and to and to tie it between his shoulders is ritually pure, and that is a ring of vessels. And the reason is because Scripture did not include anything other than ornaments of a man, but not the ornaments of an animal and vessels.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**

**וְשֶׁל אֲסִירִין.** עוֹשִׂין כְּמִין פְּגִימָה בַקּוֹרָה לְהַכְנִיס בָּהּ רֶגֶל אָדָם [וּמַנִּיחִין עֵץ אָרֹךְ עַל גַּבָּהּ] וְאֵין יָכוֹל לָצֵאת. וּבִלְשׁוֹן מִקְרָא קוֹרֵהוּ סַד, וְתָשֵׂם בַּסַּד רַגְלַי (איוב יג). וְקוֹרוֹת שֶׁל חִצִּים וְשֶׁל אֲסִירִין הָאֲמוּרִין כָּאן, דְּמַתֶּכֶת נִינְהוּ וְלֹא שֶׁל עֵץ:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
ושל אסירין (and that of prisoners) – that they make like a kind of notch in the beam to bring into it the foot of a man [and they place a long piece of wood on top of it] and one is not able to go out/escape. And in the language of Scripture, they call it a סד/stocks (Job 13:27 – though the verse is slightly misquoted by Bartenura who writes: וישם בסד רגלי – while the Biblical text writes): "ותשם בסד רגלי"/”that You put my feet in the stocks [and watch all my ways].” But the beams of arrows and of prisoners that are mentioned here are of metal and not of wood.

**קוֹלָר.** שֶׁנּוֹתְנִים בְּצַוַּאר הָאֲסִירִים. [וְהוּא סוֹגֵר]. תַּרְגּוּם וַיִּתְּנֻהוּ בַסּוּגַר (יחזקאל יט), בְּקוֹלָרִין. וּמִשּׁוּם דְּקוֹלָר עָשׂוּי שֶׁיִּשָּׂאֶנּוּ עִמּוֹ בְכָל מָקוֹם שֶׁהוֹלֵךְ, חֲשׁוּב כְּלִי מַעֲשֶׂה טְפֵי מִקּוֹרַת הָאֲסִירִים שֶׁאֵינוֹ זָז בָּהּ מִמְּקוֹמוֹ, הִלְכָּךְ קוֹלָר טָמֵא:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
קולר (prisoner’s chain/collar around the neck) – that they place on the neck of prisons. [And it closes]. The Aramaic translation of "ויתנהו בסוגר" (Ezekiel 19:9)/”With hooks he was put in a cage, [They carried him off to the king of Babylon and confined him in a fortress],” with the prisoner’s chain/collar around the neck, and because the prisoner’s collar was made that he would carry with him in every place that he goes, it is considered a usable vessel more than the beam of prisoners which does not move with it from its place. Therefore, the prisoner’s collar/chain is ritually impure.

**חוּץ מִשֶּׁל אֶשְׁכְּרוֹעַ.** גָּרְסִינַן. וְהוּא מִין אֶרֶז. תְּאַשּׁוּר, מְתַרְגְּמִינַן אֶשְׁכְּרוֹעַ. וְגָלְמֵי כֵלִים שֶׁנַּעֲשׂוּ מֵעֵץ זֶה, טְהוֹרִין, לְפִי שֶׁקְּלִפָּתוֹ עָבָה וְקָשָׁה, וְאֵין חֲשׁוּבִין כֵּלִים עַד שֶׁתּוּסַר קְלִפָּתָם וְתִגָּמֵר מְלַאכְתָּם. וְגִרְסַת הַתּוֹסֶפְתָּא, חוּץ מִשֶּׁל פִּירָשָׁע, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהֵן מְחֻסָּרִים שְׁלִיקָה. וּפִירָשָׁע הוּא עֲצֵי גֹּפֶר. וְכֵלִים הַנַּעֲשִׂים מִמֶּנּוּ אֵין מְלַאכְתָּן נִגְמֶרֶת אֶלָּא בִשְׁלִיקָה, שֶׁמַּכְנִיסִים אוֹתָן בָּאֵשׁ וּמוֹצִיאִין שֶׁלֶק, וְשׁוּב אֵין יְרֵאִים שֶׁמָּא יִסָּדְקוּ:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
חוץ משל אשכרוע (except for the ones made from boxwood/ebony) – We have this reading. And it is a kind of cedar, תאשור which we translate into Aramaic as boxwood/ebony. And unfinished vessels that were made from this wood, are pure, because its husk/skin is thick and hard, but they are not considered vessels until their husks are removed and the work [in creating/forming them] is completed. But the reading of the Tosefta is: חוץ משל פירשע/except for ebony or box wood (see Tosefta Kelim Bava Metzia 2:19), because they are lacking boiling [before they can be used]. And פירשע/ebony or boxwood is a resinous wood. But vessels made from it – their work is not [considered to be] completed other than through boiling, that we bring them into the fire and we remove seething, overboiled matter and furthermore, they are not fearful that perhaps they will split.

**גְּרוֹפִית שֶׁל זַיִת.** עָנָף שֶׁל זַיִת קָרוּי גְּרוֹפִית. כְּמוֹ שֶׁל תְּאֵנָה דְנִקְרָא יִחוּר. וְאִם עָשׂוּ כְלִי מִן הַגְּרוֹפִית, גֹּלֶם הוּא וְאֵינוֹ מְקַבֵּל טֻמְאָה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
גרופית של זית (a vessel made out of a piece of an olive tree) – a branch of an olive is called a גרופית/a vessel made out of a piece of it, like that of a fig which is called a young shoot [of a fig tree]. But if they made a vessel from a piece of an olive tree, it is an unfinished product and it does not become accessible to receive ritual impurity.

**עַד שֶׁיִּשְׁלֹק.** שֶׁיַּכְנִיסוּ אוֹתָן בָּאֵשׁ עַד שֶׁיּוֹצִיאוּ הַשֶּׁלֶק שֶׁלָּהֶן. וְאֵין הֲלָכָה כְּרַבִּי יְהוּדָה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2022:**
עד שישלק – until we bring them into the fire that will remove their seething/overboiled matter. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.
