**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
... 6) Rebbi says: Since it says 'mincha [shel esronim],' it means he specified one [amount]. Perhaps he specified to bring a mincha of one issaron; if he brings 60 issaron in place of [lit. 'in the vessel of] one issaron, it could be an extraneous mincha. Rebbi is of the opinion that since he specified exaclt how big the mincha will be, [he must bring that exact one], therefore he must bring 60 menachot from 1 through 60, one of 1 issaron, one of two issarons, one of three, one of four, until 60. He will find himself bringing in total 1830 issaron of flour, and for certain one of them will fulfill his vow, and it is not a Nedava. The halacha is not according to Rebbi. [If you specified, and forget what you specified, you bring only a 60 issaron mincha.]

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
יביא ששים עשרון – for more than this he is not able to supply. But if he vowed less than this, if does not matter to us, for he makes a condition and states how many he specified will be for my vow and the rest will be a free-will offering (see also, Mishnah 8 in this chapter).

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
רבי אומר – since he said “a meal-offering,” that implies one, so we see, he established it in one utensil, but if he would bring sixty in one utensil, perhaps he vowed less than this, it would be an additional meal-offering, for Rabbi holds that the appointment of a portion is substantial, therefore, he should bring sixty meal-offerings from one until sixty, one of one Isaron, and one of two {Esronim] and one of three [Esronim] and one of four [Esronim] until sixty. That it is found that he brings among them all one thousand eight hundred and thirty Esronim, for certainly vowed one of them, but it is not a free-will offering. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi [Judah the Prince].

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
והמעלה את הקומץ בחוץ חייב – [is liable for] extirpation, for it is an offering on the altar. But with this general rule it is also offering up a handful inside for the burning on the altar is valid; therefore, five handfuls are considered and not any more, for the person who offers up a handful inside is not considered as a sixth handful.

יביא פר ועגל – male [bulls and calves] but not females, for a burnt offering is not furnished other than with males. But our Mishnah is [according to] Rabbi [Judah the Prince] who states further on (see the conclusion of Tractate Menahot, Chapter 12, Mishnah 8) that a person who vows a free-will offering of a small animal and he brings a large one has not fulfilled his religious obligation. But the Rabbis dispute him and state that one who vows a free-will offering and he brought a large one has fulfilled his religious obligation, for there is within the general category of that which is numerous that which is small in size. And the Halakha is according to the Sages.

For one who dedicates [to the Temple] dedicates generously, and for something undefined, the best of them is dedicated as it is written (Deuteronomy 12:11): “[then you must bring everything that I command you to the site where the LORD your God will choose to establish His name; your burnt offerings and other sacrifices, your tithes and contributions,] and all the choice votive offerings that you vow to the LORD.” And similarly, if he has three [lambs], we are concerning even for the middle-sized one , for we don’t know upon which of them occurs the dedication, if it is the large one which is done generally, or the middle-sized one which is generous [in comparison to] the small one. Therefore, both of them are forbidden. But however, if he did not make an offering to the altar of any other than one of them, and how do we act that he permits one of them and delays [the offering] of the middle-sized one until a blemish befalls it, and he redeems that one for the largest one. For whichever way you turn, if it is the middle-sized one upon which dedication occurs and not on the large one, indeed a blemish befell it and he redeemed it. But if it was on the large one upon which the dedication fell initially, and it is found that the middle-sized one was not consecrated from the outset.

בבית חוניו – The Temple that Khonyo, the son of Shimon HaTzaddik built in Alexandria of Egypt. For when Shimon HaTzaddik (see Tractate Avot, Chapter 1, Mishnah 2 – one of the last of the generation of the Great Assembly who stated that the world stands on three “pillars”: Torah, Divine Service and Deeds of Loving Kindness) [was about] to die (see the Baraita in Tractate Menahot 109b), he said to them (i.e., his sons): Khonyo, my son will serve in my place, because he is an expert and familiar with the Divine Service more than Shimei his brother. But Khonyo did not accept upon himself to become the High Priest because Shimei his brother was two and half years older than him. And Shimei was appointed as High Priest in place of his father. Subsequently, Khonyo became jealous of Shimei his brother, he (i.e., Shimei) said to him: “Come and I will teach you the order/arrangement of the Divine Service. He dressed him in a thin, fine linen shirt/undercoat, that women wear upon their flesh and upon it a small, narrow belt/girdle and he placed him near the Altar; he went and said to his brethren the Kohanim: “See what this person vowed and fulfilled to his beloved,” that day when I will be appointed to be High Priest, I will wear your fine linen shirt and I will gird myself with your belt/girdle. His brethren the Priests desired to kill him, he recounted to him the entire event, they wished to kill Khonyo, he (i.e., Khonyo) ran from before them to the house of the King. And yet, everyone who sees him states that this is him, he went to Alexandria of Egypt where there were myriads of Jews and made there a Temple and built an altar and offered upon it in the name of God. And regarding that altar Isaiah prophesied (Isaiah 19:19): “In that day, there shall be an altar to the LORD inside the land of Egypt [and a pillar to the LORD at its border].” And this House (i.e., Temple) stood for close to two hundred years and is called “The House of Khonyo” in his name. And everyone agrees that the sacrifices that they would offer there were not a sacrifice. Therefore, whomever said, “May a burnt-offering sacrifice be upon me” – and he offered it there did not fulfill his vow.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שאגלח בבית חוניו אם גלח בבית חוניו יצא – that this man who took the vow of becoming a Nazirite in order that he could shave in the House of Khonyo, he intended to cause himself suffering, but because he was close to the House of Khonyo and far from the land of Israel, he stated, “If I can [offer it] in the House of Khonyo, I will go to the trouble of doing so. More than that he is not able to cause himself suffering, but the designation of being a Nazirite does not fall upon him but he becomes like a person who took an oath that he would not drink wine until a certain time.
