**שְׁנֵי דַיָּנֵי גְזֵלוֹת.** שֶׁהָיוּ גוֹזְרִין גְּזֵרוֹת עַל הַגַּזְלָנִים וְקוֹנְסִים עֲלֵיהֶם קְנָסוֹת:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שני דייני גזילות (note that the opening words of this comment are different from what is written in the Mishnah, and seem to reflect a different manuscript in the hands of Rabbi Obadiah of Bertinoro) – they were making decrees regarding thieves and imposing fines upon them.

**שְׁנֵי דְבָרִים.** שֶׁאֵין חֲכָמִים מוֹדִים לוֹ:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שני דברים – that the Sages do not agree with him.

[Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:1:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Ketubot/r/13:1:3)

**תִּשָּׁבַע בַּסּוֹף.** כְּשֶׁיִּשְׁמְעוּ בוֹ שֶׁמֵּת וְתָבֹא לִגְבּוֹת כְּתֻבָּתָהּ, תִּשָּׁבַע שֶׁלֹּא עִכְּבָה בְיָדָהּ מִשֶּׁל בַּעְלָהּ כְּלוּם:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
תשבע בסוף – when they heard regarding him that he (i.e., the husband) had died, and she (i.e., the wife, now the widow) comes to collect her Ketubah, she takes an oath that she has not held back any property of her husband at all (after her husband’s death).

[Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:1:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Ketubot/r/13:1:4)

**וְלֹא תִשָּׁבַע בַּתְּחִלָּה.** בִּשְׁעַת גְּבִיַּת מְזוֹנוֹת. וְרַמְבַּ"ם פֵּרֵשׁ, תִּשָּׁבַע בַּסּוֹף, כְּשֶׁיָּבֹא בַּעְלָהּ וְיַכְחִישֶׁנָּה וְיֹאמַר הִנַּחְתִּי לָךְ מְזוֹנוֹת, תִּשָּׁבַע שֶׁלֹּא הִנִּיחַ לָהּ כְּלוּם:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ולא תשבע בתחלה – at the time of collection of support. But Maimonides explained that she should take an oath at the end when her husband would come and contradict her and say, “I left you support,” she should take an oath claiming that he had not left her anything.

[Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:1:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Ketubot/r/13:1:5)

**רַבָּן יוֹחָנָן בֶּן זַכַּאי אוֹמֵר.** וַהֲלָכָה כְּמוֹתוֹ. וְדַוְקָא אַחַר שְׁלֹשָׁה חֳדָשִׁים לִיצִיאַת הַבַּעַל פּוֹסְקִין מְזוֹנוֹת לָאִשָּׁה אִם תָּבְעָה מְזוֹנוֹת, אֲבָל קֹדֶם זְמַן זֶה לֹא, שֶׁחֲזָקָה אֵין אָדָם מַנִּיחַ בֵּיתוֹ רֵיקָן וְיוֹצֵא:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
רבי יוחנן בן זכאי אומר – and the Halakha is according to him, and especially after three months from the husband departing, they provide/assign support to the wife if she claimed support, but not prior to this time, for it is a legal presumption that a man does not leave his house empty and leaves.

**אִבֵּד אֶת מְעוֹתָיו.** דְּאָמַר, לֹא אָמַרְתִּי לְךָ הַלְוֵנִי וַאֲנִי אֶפְרַע. אֲבָל אִם הִלְוָה אֶת הָאִשָּׁה מָעוֹת לִמְזוֹנוֹתֶיהָ עַל מְנָת שֶׁתְּשַׁלֵּם לוֹ, הוּא תוֹבְעָהּ וְהִיא תוֹבַעַת אֶת הַבַּעַל וִישַׁלֵּם. וְאִם הַבַּעַל טוֹעֵן הִנַּחְתִּי לָהּ מְזוֹנוֹת, וְהִיא אוֹמֶרֶת לֹא הִנִּיחַ וְרוֹצָה לְהוֹצִיא מִמֶּנּוּ, נִשְׁבַּע הַבַּעַל שְׁבוּעַת הֶסֵּת וְנִפְטָר, וְיִהְיוּ הַמָּעוֹת חוֹב עָלֶיהָ לִכְשֶׁתִּתְאַלְמֵן אוֹ תִתְגָּרֵשׁ. וּבְהָא מַתְנִיתִין נַמִּי הֲלָכָה כְּרַבָּן יוֹחָנָן בֶּן זַכַּאי:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
אבד את מעותיו – that he said, “I did not say to you, lend me and I will pay it back,” but if he lent the woman money for her support/maintenance on the condition that she should pay him, he makes a claim [against her] and she makes a claim the husband and he pays. But if the husband claims, “I left her support,” and she states, “he did not leave me, and wants to remove [money] from him, the husband takes an oath of inducement (an oath instituted by the Sages where the defendant completely denies a claim, based upon the tradition of Rav Nahman – to clear himself of suspicion), and he is exempted, and the moneys would be liability upon her when she becomes a widow or a divorcee, and in this Mishnah also, the Halakha is according to Rabban Yohanan ben Zakkai.

**וּבִנְכָסִים מֻעָטִים.** שֶׁאֵין בָּהֶם פַּרְנָסָה שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ לִזְכָרִים וְלִנְקֵבוֹת. וְרַמְבַּ"ם פֵּרֵשׁ, כָּל שֶׁאֵין בָּהֶם לְפַרְנֵס הַבָּנִים וְהַבָּנוֹת עַד שֶׁיִּבָּגְרוּ הַבָּנוֹת, קָרוּי נְכָסִים מֻעָטִים:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
בנכסים מועטים – that they lack support for twelve months for males and females. And Maimonides explained that everyone who lack the means to support the boys and girls until the girls become adults is called meager resources/a small amount of property.


###### Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:3:2
[Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:3:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Ketubot/r/13:3:2)

**בִּשְׁבִיל שֶׁאֲנִי זָכָר הִפְסָדְתִּי.** כְּלוֹמַר, בִּשְׁבִיל שֶׁאֲנִי זָכָר וְרָאוּי לִירָשׁ בִּנְכָסִים מְרֻבִּים הִפְסַדְתִּי בִּנְכָסִים מֻעָטִים. וְאֵין הֲלָכָה כְּאַדְמוֹן:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
בשביל שאני זכר הפסדתי – meaning to say, with the fact that I am a male and designated/predestined to inherit with a great deal of property, I have lost out when there is a small amount of property/meager resources. But the Halakha is not according to Admon.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
והודה בקנקנים – empty [jars] without oil as for example where his fellow made a claim against him for ten pitchers of oil that I have that are with you.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
Admon states that there is an implication in this claim [for] oil and pitchers, and when he admitted to him about the empty pitchers, that is a partial admission of guilt and he requires taking an oath.


###### Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:4:3
[Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot 13:4:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Ketubot/r/13:4:3)

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
But the Sages state that there is no implication in this claim other than the oil alone which is the measure of ten pitchers, and when he admitted to him regarding the empty pitchers, what he claimed against him was not admitted to him, and what he admitted to him was not claimed against him, and there is no partial admission from the kind of a claim and he is not liable to take an oath, but the Halakha is according to Admon.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ופשט את הרגל – it is the language of contempt/disgrace, meaning to say, “take the plaster and dust that is under my feet. Another explanation: “Suspend me by my feet on the tree, for I lack what I can give to you” (i.e., he defaulted). And Maimonides explained, “and he shows him the foot”/ופשט את הרגל (i.e., refuses to give it to him), that he walked on the road from afar.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
העורר על השדה וכו' – Reuven protests concerning the field that is in the hand of Shimon, and says to him: “Levi who sold it to you stole it from me, and he is inscribed on the bill of sale that Levi wrote to Shimon who sold it to him.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
אדמון אומר יכול הוא שיאמר – just as I did not protest at the time when you purchased this field from Levi and I signed/inscribed as a witness in the midst of the document because Levi is a strong man and difficult to remove something from his hand, it was pleasant for me that it should be in your hand than that I would [try] to remove it from you in court.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
אבד את זכותו – for since and he signed, he admitted that he had no business with this, but the Halakha is not like Admon, and especially when he signed it as a witness, this is what Admon and the Sages were arguing about, but if he is signed as a judge to uphold the document, everyone agrees that he did not lose his right because he would be able to say: “I did not know what was written in the document for the judge who signs as the legal endorsement of a note, stating that it has been produced in court and found valid – to uphold the document and it is not necessary that he knew what was written in the document other than that he should recognize the signatures alone.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ילך לו בקצרה – by force against their will, he should take for himself the path to his field, but he should choose for himself the shortest path so that he would not have to take a lot. And at the time when people surround it from the four directions Admon agrees with the Sages that each person can say, “I brought proof that your path is [where the money was] collected and taken. But if one person surrounded it from the four directions, the Sages agree that whatever side you take, his path is with him. They did not dispute other than when one person surrounded it when he came under the power of four people. Admon states that one can say to him, whatever side you take, my path is with you. But the Sages say that one can say to him: How? If you were silent, you were silent, but if not, return the document to his master, and you will not be able to talk about the law with/to sue him. And the Halakha is according to the Sages.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
זה היה פקח שמכר לו את השדה – because this one abandoned his movable property, and he did not have from where he could he could mortgage on his lien and now he takes the property. Bu in a place where the purchaser gives Zuzim/money and afterwards the writing of a bill/document of sale, everyone does not disagree that the seller should have tarried with his lien of the money that received and should not write for him the document and since he wrote it, it proves that he does not have a lien upon him, but they argue in a place where they wrote the document and afterwards the purchaser gives the Zuzim/money. Admon holds that he should have sent a declaration (especially a protest before witnesses against a forced or unduly influenced action): “I will not see you other than in order that I am able to mortgage it.” But the Sages state: the fact that he did not send a declaration because he was afraid lest the matter should become known and he would have been prevented from purchasing the field, and the Halakha is according to the Sages.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
מפני שהנוה היפה בודק – the body and makes it sick. For the change in the period, even for [her] good is the beginning of stomach illness. But the Halakha is according to Rabban Gamaliel. But if a person from the land of the Galilee married a woman from the land of Judea or its opposite, we force her to go out with him, for it is on that account that he married her. And in every place, we remove [someone] from a city where most of it is idolatrous to a city where the majority is Israelite, but not from a city where its majority is Israelite to a city where its majority is idolatrous.

הכל מעלין – a person may force all the members of his household to make Aliyah with him to Jerusalem, and even if he purchased a Hebrew slave, that slave should go after him against his will, and even from a nice neighborhood to a bad neighborhood, and even from a city whose majority was Israelite to a city whose majority was idolatrous.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
קפוטקיא – this is Caphtor, and we call it Dima’t in Arabic. Its monies are large and weigh more than tose of the land of Israel. But because the Ketubah/marriage contract of a woman is from the words of the Scribes, they were lenient concerning it to pay her off with the least [amount of] money. But Rabbi Shimon ben Gamaliel holds that the Ketubah is from the Torah, and because of this, he goes according to the stricter position in this. But, the Halakah is not according to him.
