**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שתי הלחם. לחם הפנים נילוש אחת אחת – as it is written concerning it (Leviticus 24:5): “[You shall take choice flour and bake of it twelve loaves,] two-tenths of a measure for each loaf,” which teaches that they are kneaded one by one. And from where [do we learn] that their baking is two at a time? The inference teaches us (Leviticus 24:6): “Place them/ושמת אותם [on the pure table before the LORD in two rows, six to a row].” The first placement that you do from them, that is in the oven, will be in the [plural] language of “them/אותם”, that implies that he would place two in two molds/frames together in the oven. It is possible that even the two loaves are like this, as the inference teaches us (ibid.,): “Place them,” that you should have said, “place them” [regarding the shewbread/לחם הפנים ], what does the inference each us – those – you place two by two in the oven, but you do not place the two loaves – two by two, but rather one at a time.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ובטפוס – like דפוס/mold or frame – PURMA in the foreign tongue, like a sort of box that you take its cover and its two walls one opposite the other, so also the bread, you would have two walls and wide rims at the bottom of the vessel and you prepare the dough within the mold that it is made like a kind of mold.

וכשרות בבית פאגי – Maimonides states that it is a place close to the Temple Mount from outside (see Tractate Menahot, Chapter 7, Mishnah 3 – as a special place for the baking of meal-offerings) that they would bake the meal-offerings thee. From the language of (Daniel 1:12-13): “[Please test your servants for ten days, giving us legumes to eat and water to drink. Then compare our appearance with that of the youths] who eat of the king’s food, [and do with your servants as you see fit].” But the Halakha is onot other than according to the words of the first Tanna/teacher.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ודוחות את השבת – because it is impossible to perform its kneading and its rolling and its baking from the day before, for since it is sanctified in a vessel, it becomes defiled staying overnight [This principle is also taught in Tractate Shabbat, Chapter 19, Mishnah 1 with regard to ritual circumcision and in Tractate Pesahim, Chapter 6, Mishnah 2 with regard to the Passover offering].

**וְאֵינוֹ דּוֹחֶה לֹא אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת וְלֹא אֶת יוֹם טוֹב.** לְפִי שֶׁאֵין אוֹפִים וּמְבַשְּׁלִים בְּיוֹם טוֹב אֶלָּא מַה שֶּׁאוֹכֵל בְּאוֹתוֹ הַיּוֹם בִּלְבַד:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ואינו דוחה לא את השבת ולא את יום טוב – because they don’t bake or cook on the Festival other than what one eats on that day alone.

רבן שמעון בן גמליאל אומר וכו' – but the Halakha is not according to Rabban Shimon ben Gamaliel.
