**מֵזִיד.** לְשֵׁם זְנוּת וְלֹא לְמִצְוַת יִבּוּם:

**אֲפִלּוּ הוּא שׁוֹגֵג וְהִיא מְזִידָה.** לֹא מִבַּעְיָא הֵיכָא דְּהִיא מִכַּוְּנָה לְמִצְוָה, אֶלָּא אֲפִלּוּ הֵיכָא דְּתַרְוַיְהוּ לֹא מְכַוְּנֵי לְמִצְוָה, כְּגוֹן שֶׁהוּא מְכַוֵּן לְאִשָּׁה אַחֶרֶת וְהִיא נִתְכַּוְּנָה לְשֵׁם זְנוּת, קָנָה, דְּאָמַר קְרָא (דברים כה) יְבָמָהּ יָבֹא עָלֶיהָ, מִכָּל מָקוֹם:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
אפילו הוא שוגג והיא מזידה – needless to say where she intended [to fulfill] the Mitzvah but rather even where both of them don’t have the intention [of fulfilling] the Mitzvah such as the case where he intends for another woman, and she had the intention for the sake of unchastity, he has acquired her [as his wife], as it states in Scripture (Deuteronomy 25:5): “ Her husband’s brother shall unite with her: [he shall take her as his wife and perform the levir’s duty],” anyway.

**הַמְּעָרֶה.** שֶׁלֹּא גָּמַר בִּיאָתוֹ אֶלָּא הִכְנִיס עֲטָרָה בִּלְבַד. וּפְגִיעַת עֲטָרָה בְּלֹא הַכְנָסָה קְרוּיָה נְשִׁיקָה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
המערה – that he did not complete his coition, but rather, he inserted the corona of his membrum virile alone, and the meeting of the corona without insertion is called “kissing.”

**לֹא חָלַק בֵּין בִּיאָה לְבִיאָה.** בֵּין בִּיאָה כְּדַרְכָּהּ לְבִיאָה שֶׁלֹּא כְּדַרְכָּהּ, דִּכְתִיב (ויקרא כ) מִשְׁכְּבֵי אִשָּׁה, מַגִּיד הַכָּתוּב שֶׁשְּׁתֵּי מִשְׁכָּבוֹת יֵשׁ בְּאִשָּׁה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
לא חלק בין ביאה לביאה – whether a coition in its proper manner or a coition not in its proper manner, as it is written (Leviticus 20:13): “[If a man lies with a male] as one lies with a woman,” the Biblical verse tells us that there are two ways of sexual gratification.

**אוֹ עַל הַפְּסוּלוֹת כְּגוֹן אַלְמָנָה לְכֹהֵן גָּדוֹל וְכוּ'.** פְּסָלָהּ לִכְהֻנָּה מִשּׁוּם זוֹנָה. וְאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵשֶׁת יִשְׂרָאֵל שֶׁנֶּאֶנְסָה מֻתֶּרֶת לְבַעֲלָהּ, פְּסוּלָה הִיא לִכְהֻנָּה. וּגְרוּשָׁה נַמִּי, אִי בַּת כֹּהֵן הִיא מִפְסְלָה בְּהַךְ בִּיאָה מִתְּרוּמָה דְּבֵי נַשָּׁא:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
או על הפסולות כגון אלמנה לכהן גדול וכו' – she is invalidated to the priesthood because she is unfit to marry a Kohen (as a harlot), even though that the wife of an Israelite who was raped is permitted to her husband, but she is invalid to the priesthood, and a divorcee as well, if she is the daughter of a Kohen, she invalidates herself by this coition from Terumah of wife’s house.

[Bartenura on Mishnah Yevamot 6:2:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bartenura%20on%20Mishnah%20Yevamot/r/6:2:3)

**מַמְזֶרֶת וּנְתִינָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל.** לָאו אַפְּסוּלָה לִכְהֻנָּה קָאֵי, דְּהָא פְּסוּלָה וְקַיְמָא, אֶלָּא לְעִנְיַן הַעֲרָאָה נָקַט לֵיהּ, לְמִלְקֵי עֲלָהּ בְּהַעֲרָאָה כִּגְמַר בִּיאָה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ממזרת ונתינה לישראל – it dos not refer to her being invalidated to the priesthood, for she is invalidated and enduring, but rather to the matter of the first stage of sexual connection, the Mishnah took it as punishing her as the first stage of sexual connection which is like the completion of coition.

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

**רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מַכְשִׁירִין.** עַד שֶׁתִּבָּעֵל וְתֵעָשֶׂה חֲלָלָה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא כא) וְלֹא יְחַלֵּל, שְׁנֵי חִלּוּלִין, אֶחָד לָהּ וְאֶחָד לְזַרְעָהּ. וְלֵית הִלְכָתָא כְּוָתַיְהוּ, אֶלָּא אַף מִן הָאֵרוּסִין לֹא יֹאכְלוּ בַתְּרוּמָה:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
רבי אליעזר ור"ש מכשירין – until she has sexual intercourse and becomes the female issue of a priest’s illegitimate connection (or a priest’s wife illegitimately married to him), as it states (Leviticus 21:15): “that he may not profane [his offspring among his kin, for I the LORD have sanctified him],” two profanations: one- hers, and the other to her seed. But the Halakha is not according to him, but rather, even from betrothal, they should not consume Terumah.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
מן הארוסין כשרות – and even the first Tanna/teacher [of our Mishnah] did not invalidate from the betrothal, other than while they are alive for she has to be on her guard to an invalid coition, but not if they (i.e., the men) died.

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

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
כהן הדיוט לא ישא אילונית וכו' – and the same law applies for a Israelite male, and it (i.e., the Mishnah) did not take [the example of] a Kohen other than because of the dispute of Rabbi Yehuda who stated, that a Kohen, even if he has a wife and children, should not marry a barren woman, which is not the case regarding an Israelite male, but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.

ושנבעלה בעילת זנות – such as for example those liable for violation of negative commandments or those liable for violation of positive commandments, and all the more so, those liable for extirpation or death by the Jewish court , but a person who comes upon a unmarried woman has not made her a harlot.

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

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ושהה עמה עשר שנים וכו' – as we find with Abraham after he tarried with his wife for ten years without her giving birth, he married Hagar and for the days that he lived with her outside the Land [of Israel], the did not count in the number, for perhaps dwelling outside of the land caused it, and all the days that the husband or the wife are sick or are imprisoned and in a similar manner we speak that they prevent sexual intimacy, they do not count to the number of ten years.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
גרשה מותרת לינשא לאחר – for perhaps it was not her, but rather him [who was infertile], and when he divorces her, he gives her the Ketubah settlement if she claims that it is from him [who was infertile] who does not have a spermatic emission which does not shoot forth like an arrow (i.e., does not fructify), and they place an oath upon her if she knows that he does have a spermatic emission which does shoot forth like an arrow , and she makes against him false claim which is a lie.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
האיש מצווה על פריה ורביה ולא האשה – as it is written (Genesis 1:28): “Be fertile and increase, [fill the earth] and master it,” and [the word] "כבשה" is written without a “VAV.” It is the way for a man to conquer the woman; he is commanded on “being fertile and increase.”
