**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
נטל את ידו משטיפה אחת – we call it one rinsing all the while that he didn’t pour other than on one hand until the joint/wrist, and it is sufficient once with his one hand, even though there isn’t in the vessel one-quarter of a LOG other than it comes from the remnants of purity. But for both of his hands, even though they come from the remnants of purity, they are not effective until he pours twice. The first [rinsing] until the joint/wrist and the second time up until the joint/wrist. But Maimonides explains: from one pouring is from one rinsing [of water on his hands]. But when he pours both of his hands with one rinsing, the waters become defiled on his one hand, and it is found hat he washes the second with water that became defiled, and his hands were not purified until he poured a second [rinsing] of water from one-quarter of a LOG. But when he pours [water] on only one hand, through that rinsing, his hand is purified, but when he pours water a second time to purify the water that is on his hand, it is sufficient with less than one-quarter of a LOG. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Meir.

**נָפַל כִּכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה.** הֵיכָא דְּנָטַל אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנִים מֵרְבִיעִית, וְנָפַל עֲלֵיהֶם כִּכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה, אוֹ נָגַע בְּכִכָּר שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה עִם הַמַּיִם שֶׁבְּיָדוֹ קֹדֶם שֶׁיְּנַגְּבֵם, אוֹ קֹדֶם שֶׁיִּשְׁפֹּךְ עֲלֵיהֶן מַיִם שְׁנִיִּים:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
נפל ככר של תרומה – where he poured the first waters from one-quarter of a LOG [of a single rinsing] and a loaf of heave-offering/Terumah fell up upon them, or a loaf of heave-offering came in contact with the waters that were on his hand prior to his drying them, or prior to his pouring upon them a second time [for consuming heave-offering].

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
על השניים טהור – for the second [rinsing] are pure. But if he poured the first [rinsing] and the second [rinsing] in one place and a loaf of heave-offering fell on the water, it is impure, as it is taught in the concluding clause [of the Mishnah], that the second [rinsing] does not purify anything other than the water that is on his hand, meaning to say the first [rinsing] that is on his hands, the second [rinsing] purifies, but the firs [rinsing] that fell to the ground, the second [rinsing] does not purify.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ידיו טמאים – even though he placed upon them the second [rinsing], because the water that is on the pebgle became defiled on account of his hand, and the second [rinsing] of the water do not purify anything other than the water that is upon his hand, but not the water that is upon the pebble or the splinter/chip. Another explanation: “and there is found on his hands a chip or a pebble, and everything that interposes/forms a partition in the pouring water on the hands, even though he placed a second [rinsing] on his hands, the hands are ritually impure, and he did not purify it on account of the second [rinsing] of water, for the second [rinsing] of water does not purify other than the water that is upon the hand, gut not the hands themselves.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
כל שהוא מבריית המים טהור (whatever originates in water is clean) -as for example gnats and mosquitos that grow in the water, if they fell upon the hands at the time of pouring [of water for ritual washing], they do not interpose, for since they originate in the water. But the Halakha is not according to Rabban Simeon ben Gamaliel.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
חזרו ליד טהורה - for since the first [rinsing of the hands] did not go past the wrist, the second [rinsing of the hands] were not defiled through their going out beyond the rest But when the first [rinsing of the hands] and the second [rinsing of the hands] went out beyond the wrist and returned to the hand, it is defiled, because the second [rinsing of the hands] with the first that went beyond the wrist, for the second [rinsing of the hands] does not purify the first [that go forth] beyond the wrist, but rather only until the wrist alone they purify.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
נטל את הראשונים לידו אחת – that he poured the first [rinsing of the hands] on each individual hand separately, and afterwards combined the two hands to pour upon them the second [rinsing of the hands], his hands are impure. For when he combined his hands, his hands wee defiled through their contact/touching one another, for eh water that was on this one defiles the water that was on top of its fellow [hand], like that they defiled a loaf of heave-offerings, and the hands were defiled on account of the impure liquids. But when he poured the second [rinsing of the hands], they did not purify the first [rinsing of the hands], because they were defiled on account of the waters of its partner, but on the contrary also the second [rinsing of the hands] were defiled by them. And especially when he poured the first [rinsing of the hands] this one (i.e., one hand) for itself and that one (i.e., the other hand) for itself, but if he poured the first [rinsing of the hands] for the two hands as one, the two hands are considered as one hand and hey don’t defile one another. Such is what I found as an explanation of this Mishnah in the explanations/commentaries of my Rabbis/Teachers. But Maimonides explained, that if he poured the first [rinsing of the hands] on only one hand alone, and afterwards combined both hands to pour upon them the second [rinsing of the hands], his hands are impure, for the second [rinsing of the hands] are defiled by the hand that was not purified, and they return and defile the pure hand.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
טהורה – but if after he rubbed it he returned and touched the same water that had come from his hand to his head or to the wall, it is defiled.. For those waters are defiled and they return and defile the hand that touched them. Even though that all the while that he did not rub, they are [purified/ as we need to say] with the rubbing, for when he rubbed and went back and touched, he made it worse.

**שְׁנֵי כִכָּרִים טְמֵאִים.** דָּאֳכָלִים טְמֵאִים מְטַמְּאִים אֶת הַיָּדַיִם, כְּדִתְנַן לְקַמָּן בְּפֶרֶק ג'‏ [מִשְׁנָה ב'], כָּל הַפּוֹסֵל אֶת הַתְּרוּמָה מְטַמֵּא אֶת הַיָּדַיִם לִהְיוֹת שְׁנִיּוֹת:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שני ככרים טמאים - that impure foods defile the hands, as it is taught in the Mishnah [of Tractate Yadayim] in Chapter 3 [Mishnah 2]: “Whatever imparts unfitness to heave-offering imparts uncleanness to the hands to become second-degree of ritual uncleanness.”

**הַיָּדַיִם כְּמוֹ שֶׁהָיוּ וְהַכִּכָּרִים כְּמוֹת שֶׁהָיוּ.** הַטָּמֵא בְּטֻמְאָתוֹ וְהַטָּהוֹר בְּטָהֳרָתוֹ:

הידים כמו שהיו והככרים כמות שהיו – that which is defiled in its defilement and that which is pure in its purity.
