של בית נמר – It is the name of a place, as it is written (Numbers 32:36): “Beth-nimrah, [and Beth-haran as fortified towns or as enclosures for flocks].” They tie a rope at the same of the standing corn and continue reaping until the rope runs out and place the Peah the entire rope, and they go back and tie and place the Peah, that is from each and every artisan, that is to say, from each and every row and for this reason they mention these for praise.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
נכרי שקצר את שדהו וכו' – as it is written concerning gleaning and the corner of the field (Leviticus 19:9): “When you reap [the harvest of your land…],” excluding that when heathens reaped it, and concerning that which is forgotten, it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “When you reap the harvest in your field and overlook a sheaf in the field, [do not turn back to get it]..,” from here they said that a heathen which reaped his field and afterwards converted is exempt.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שאין השכחה אלא בשעת עמור – and at the time of carrying sheaves home, he was a convert and liable in all the commandments, but the Rabbis hold that since there is the forgotten sheaf of the Omer, and there is that which is forgotten with the standing corn, as it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “and overlook a sheaf in the field,” to include that which is forgotten with the standing corn, that which exists with that which is forgotten of the standing corn exists with that which is forgotten of the grain sheaf, and that convert who harvests while reaped that which was not that which was forgotten of the standing corn for at that time he was a heathen, and even though he has not converted, it is not that which is forgotten of the grain sheaf. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
קמה ופדה עומרים פטורה – Since the Biblical verse that we exclude the harvest of a heathen, also excludes the harvest of that which is sanctified [to the Temple] for it is not your harvest, but regarding the matter of that which is forgotten, there is a dispute between Rabbi Yehuda and the Rabbis when one sanctified the standing corn and redeemed sheaves of grain just as they disputed regarding a heathen that reaped his field and afterwards converted.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
עד שלא באו לעונת המעשרות – that is giving the pile of grain an even shape when he smooths the face of the pile with a winnowing shovel, but if at that same time, if they were in the hand of the [Temple] treasurer, they are exempt, and if not, the Sanctification does not redeem them.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
רבי אליעזר אומר זכה לו – a dispute of Rabbi Eliezer and the Rabbis concerning a rich person that gathered Peah to make assignment to a poor person, for Rabbi Eliezer holds that we say two Miggos (i.e., that a deponent’s statement is accepted as true on the ground that, if he had intended to tell a lie, he might have invented one more advantageous to his case); [the first] Miggo – that if he had wanted to make his possessions ownerless he would be a poor person and that it is appropriate for him, now also, it is appropriate for him. And [the second] Miggo, that if he wanted, he could have taken possession for himself, he also gave possession to his friend, but the Rabbis hold that we say [only] one Miggo; two Miggos we don’t say, but from a poor person to a poor person, everyone says that it is appropriate, and the Halakha is according to the Sages.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
של נכרי חייב במעשרות – for since the heathen is not liable in gleanings, that which is forgotten and the corner of the field/Peah, it is like the other grain of the heathen which is liable for tithes.

אלא אם כן הפקיר – to the poor and to the rich, for that which is ownerless is exempt from tithes. But our Mishnah is according to Rabbi Meir who said that there is no acquisition in the Land of Israel for a heathen to be released from tithes. But the Halakha is not according to this.

תוך היד – it refers to falling, that is, if it is within the hand and it falls [or] within the sickle and it falls, for that which falls from one’s hand and from the sickle is for the poor, but if it falls from the back of the hand [or] from the shaking of the hand, and from the back of the sickle from the power of the movement of the sickle, it belongs to the owner, and this not through the [act of] harvesting.
