והטהור עובר טמא – as it is written regarding the leper (Leviticus 13:46): “[Being impure, he shall dwell apart;] his dwelling shall be outside the camp.”/ "מחוץ למחנה מושבו" , from here that his dwelling is impure, therefore, when the impure individual stands underneath the tree, the place of the tree becomes his dwelling place and the pure person that passes there is impure. But when the impure person passes and doesn’t stand to rest himself, this is not called his dwelling, and even though that the pure person sits there, the pure person is not susceptible to receive defilement.

טמאתו – for an analogy is made between leprosy and a corpse. But a leprous cloak that became defiled through oming in, we derive if from Scripture, as it is written (Leviticus 14:55): “for an eruption on a cloth or a house.”/"ולצרעת הבגד והבית", an analogy is made from a cloth to a house, for just as aa house defiles when one enters it, for it is written (Leviticus 14:46): “Whoever enters the house”/"והבא אל הבית וגו' ", even a cloth defiles through entry. From where do we learn that this includes everything as for example warp and woof and hides, the inference teaches us (Leviticus 13:59): "זאת תורת נגע-צרעת בגד הצמר [או הפשתים או השתי או הערב או כל כלי-עור לטהרו או לטמאו]."/ “Such is the procedure for eruptive affections of cloth, [woolen or linen, in warp or in woof, or of any article of skin, for pronouncing it pure or impure.],” an analogy is made between all of them to a cloth, just as a cloth defiles through entry, so all of them defile through entry.

והן טהורים עד שישהה בכדי אכילת פרס – as it is written (Leviticus 14:47): “Whoever sleeps in the house must wash his clothes, and whoever eats in the house must wash his clothes.” And it is taught in a Baraita: I have established only eating and sleeping, but from where can I derive that not eating or not sleeping [is included]? The inference comes to teach us, "יכבס את-בגדיו"/he must wash his clothes – is an inclusion (i.e., widening the scope of the Halakha), if so, why does it state (in Leviticus 14:47): "השכב בבית...והאכל בבית"/one who sleeps in the house….and one who eats in the house? To give a measurement to (Leviticus 13:46): "והבא אל-הבית"/whoever enters the house, which does not require washing of clothes until he remains there long enough eats while he is lying down, meaning to say, when he is reclining. And how much is the measurement of eating? In order to eat a piece of bread, which is one-half of a loaf of an Eruv (see Tractate Eruvin 8b and the dispute between Rashi and Maimonides; according to Rabbi Yohanan ben Beroka, a full loaf is six eggs and half of it is three eggs; according to Rabbi Shimon, the loaf is eight eggs and half of it is four eggs; Maimonides decides according to Rabbi Yohanan ben Beroka, whereas Rashi decides like Rabbi Shimon). According to the words of Rashi, they are four eggs, and according to the words of Maimonides they are three eggs.

But if he didn’t remain enough time in order to light a candle, it is not his dwelling, and that fact that [the master] throw him out is because he was preoccupied in lighting the candle because it was the onset of the Sabbath or on weekdays, and he was not able to bring it forth.

**נִכְנָס רִאשׁוֹן וְיוֹצֵא אַחֲרוֹן.** כְּדֵי שֶׁלֹּא יִטַּמְּאוּ הָעוֹמְדִים בְּבֵית הַכְּנֶסֶת בִּכְנִיסָתוֹ וּבִיצִיאָתוֹ, כְּשֶׁהוּא עוֹבֵר מִן הַפֶּתַח וְעַד הַמְּחִצָּה. דְּחָיְשִׁינַן שֶׁמָּא יַעֲמֹד מְעַט בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁהוּא עוֹבֵר, וְיִטַּמְּאוּ כָּל הָעוֹמְדִים שָׁם:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
נכנס ראשון ויוצא אחרון – in order that those who are standing in the synagogue do not become defiled through his entrance and his departure, when he passes from the entrance until the partition, for we are concerned lest he stand a bit at the time that he passes, and all of those standing there will be defiled.

**כֹּל הַמַּצִּיל בְּצָמִיד פָּתִיל.** כְּגוֹן כְּלִי חֶרֶס וְכָל הַנְהוּ דַחֲשִׁיב בְּמַסֶּכֶת כֵּלִים פֶּרֶק וְאֵלּוּ כֵלִים מַצִּילִים:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
כל המציל בצמיד פתיל – as for example an earthenware vessel and all of those are considered in Tractate Kelim in Chapter 10: “Which are the vessels that are protected by a tightly fitting lid?”

**כֹּל הַמַּצִּיל מְכֻסֶּה בְאֹהֶל הַמֵּת.** כְּגוֹן בּוֹר וְדוּת דְּלֹא בָעֵי צָמִיד פָּתִיל אֶלָּא כִסּוּי, כְּדִתְנַן בְּמַסֶּכֶת אֳהָלוֹת פֶּרֶק הַתַּנּוּר (משנה ו). וַהֲלָכָה כְּרַבִּי יוֹסֵי:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
כל המציל מכוסה אוהל המת – such as a pit and a cistern that don’t require a tightly fit lid but rather a covering, as is taught in Tractate Ahilot, Chapter 5 [The Oven] (Mishnah 6). And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yossi.
