**הַשּׁוֹחֶה לִשְׁתּוֹת.** בְּפִיו וּבִשְׂפָמוֹ הֲרֵי הֵן בְּכִי יֻתַּן. דְּהַיְנוּ טַעֲמָא, לְפִי שֶׁאֵין הַמַּיִם נִכְנָסִים לְפִיו אֶלָּא אִם כֵּן נוֹגְעִים בִּשְׂפָמוֹ תְחִלָּה, הִלְכָּךְ אַחְשְׁבִינְהוּ:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
השוחה לשתות, בפיו ובשפמו הרי הן בכי יותן ( he who kneels down to drink) – that is the reason, because the waters do not enter into his mouth unless they touch his moustache first, therefore we consider them [as being under the law of “when water is put on” – Leviticus 11:38).

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
הממלא בחבית, המים העולים אחריה (he who draws water with a jug, the water which comes up on its outer parts) – they are [considered as under the law of] “when water is put on,” (Leviticus 11:38), for it is impossible that they can enter until they reach its outer parts. But if he placed it underneath the spout [when its waters splash forth], that which comes up on its outer parts is not [considered as under the law of] “when water is put on,” for it is possible for it (i.e., the water) to spout forth continuously that it will descend into it (i.e., the jug) and not touch its outer parts.

**וְאִם בִּשְׁבִיל שֶׁיּוּדְחוּ יָדָיו.** נִתְכַּוֵּן לִטֹּל אֶת הַפֵּרוֹת מִן הַמַּיִם, הַפֵּרוֹת הֲרֵי הֵן בְּכִי יֻתַּן וּמֻכְשָׁרִים לְקַבֵּל טֻמְאָה מִכָּאן וּלְהַבָּא. דְּאַחְשְׁבַהּ לְהַךְ נְפִילַת פֵּרוֹת לִטֹּל יָדָיו בְּהַגְבָּהָתָן, וְהָוֵי לֵיהּ מַשְׁקֶה שֶׁסּוֹפוֹ לְרָצוֹן, דְּאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵין תְּחִלָּתוֹ לְרָצוֹן הֲרֵי זֶה בְּכִי יֻתַּן:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ואם בשביל שיודחו ידיו (and if he gave thought that his hands should be rinsed off) – for he had intended to take the fruit/produce from the water, the fruit/produce is under the law of “when water is put,” (Leviticus 11:38), and they are fit/susceptible to receive ritual impurity from now on. For he had considered in this falling of fruit/produce to ritually wash his hands while lifting them up [out of the water], for these for him a liquid that ultimately will be intentional, and even though it is not intentional at the outset, they are under the law of “when water is put.”

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ופשט אב הטומאה את ידיו לתוכה טמאה – for an earthenware vessel receives ritual defilement from a primary source of ritual impurity (i.e., a corpse) that touches him, his ritual immersion did not count, for even though he was in the ritual bath/Mikveh, because the waters that are in it (i.e., the dish) interpose between him and waters of the ritual bath/Mikveh.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
מגע טומאות טהורה – If it was not a primary source of ritual impurity that touched it, but rather a first-degree of ritual impurity, and he is called unclean [only by reason of] contact with unclean things, that is to say, he comes in contact with primary sources of ritual defilement, then the dish is ritually pure, for an earthenware vessel does not receive ritual defilement other than from a primary source of ritual defilement, and it is found that the dish was not defiled other than on account of impure liquids that were within it that had been defiled, and they go back and defile it, and because of this it does not defile, for the waters that were within it were dipped in the waters of a Mikveh/ritual bath and purified. But the rest of the liquids, as for example, wine, [olive] oil and milk, the ritual bath/Mikveh does not purify them, for they do not consider it the dipping of a vessel, filled with an unclean liquid, so as to make its surface level with the surface of the water into which it is dipped/contact between liquids (i.e., a ceremony of Levitical purification), therefore they return and defile the dish, for the Rabbis decreed upon liquids that they would defile, as a decree because of the liquid of a person afflicted with gonorrhea and/or a woman with a flux.

הממלא בקילון (if one draws water with the swipe and bucket for drawing water) – when the water is collected in one place and they (i.e., people) request to bring it to another field, they make for them a path that these waters can come in, and the name of that path that these waters are conducted [in a channel] is called a קילון /swipe and bucket for אם drawing water/duct, and up to three days this swipe and bucket does not dry up from the waters that were conducted/flowing into it, and they make the produce/fruit that fell into it susceptible [for ritual impurity], for these were done intentionally.

רבי עקיבא אומר אם נגבו מיד – Rabbi Akiba does not argue with the first Tanna/teacher, for a mere קילון/swipe and bucket for drawing water does not dry until three days. And the first Tanna/teacher is speaking about a mere קילון/swipe and bucket. But this is found explicitly in the Tosefta (Tractate Makhshirin, Chapter 2, Halakha 9) that Rabbi Akiba admits that with a mere קילון/swape-pipe it is three days.

בלעו משקים טמאים – as for example, that the wood was dry from the outside, but within, the liquids were absorbed, even though that he took them outside in order that the rain would fall upon them, for he reckoned them for rain, and even so, they are ritually pure, for they did not come in contact with impure liquids, for they absorbed them.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
לא יסיקם אלא בידים טהורות (he should kindle them only with clean hands)- so that the hands do not ritually defile the rain waters that were considered and they would return and defile the oven, for a liquid defiles a vessel. But with ritually pure hands, he is able to kindle them in the oven, and the oven is ritually pure, but we don’t say that ultimately the impure liquid that is absorbed will come out on account of the kindling, for the fire controls the wood and when the flame seizes them (i.e., the wood), the liquids cease inside them, and they don’t go out when they kindle them in the oven.

אם היו לחין (if they were wet/freshly cut) – these pieces of wood that had absorbed impure liquids and on account of their wetness/moisture, the liquids themselves came out from them, but if those liquids expunged the impure liquid that was absorbed and the liquids (i.e., the sap) were greater on their own than the absorbed [impure] liquid, [they are pure, according to Rabbi Shimon].
