הֲרֵי כּוּלָּן מְכוּרִין.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**all these** components **are sold** as part of the sale of the house.

[Bava Batra 65b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:2)

**גְּמָ׳** לֵימָא מַתְנִיתִין דְּלָא כְּרַבִּי מֵאִיר – דְּאִי רַבִּי מֵאִיר, הָא אָמַר: מָכַר אֶת הַכֶּרֶם – מָכַר תַּשְׁמִישֵׁי כֶרֶם!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**GEMARA:** The Gemara suggests: **Let us say that the mishna** that distinguishes between different types of household items **is not in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Meir. As if** it is in accordance with the opinion of **Rabbi Meir, doesn’t he say** in a *baraita* (78b): If **one sold a vineyard, he has sold** all of **the utensils of the vineyard,** including the movable ones? The same should be true for the sale of a house.


###### Bava Batra 65b:3
[Bava Batra 65b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:3)

אֲפִילּוּ תֵּימָא רַבִּי מֵאִיר – הָתָם קְבִיעַ, הָכָא לָא קְבִיעַ. וְהָא מַפְתֵּחַ דּוּמְיָא דְּדֶלֶת קָתָנֵי – מָה דֶּלֶת דִּקְבִיעָא, אַף מַפְתֵּחַ דִּקְבִיעַ! אֶלָּא מְחַוַּורְתָּא, מַתְנִיתִין דְּלָא כְּרַבִּי מֵאִיר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara answers: **You** may **even say** that the mishna was taught in accordance with the opinion of **Rabbi Meir,** as a distinction can be made between the two cases. **There,** in the case of a vineyard, the reference is to utensils that are **fixed** in the vineyard and never removed from it, and therefore they are included in the sale, while **here,** in the case of a house, the mishna is referring to utensils that are **not fixed** in the house, and therefore they are not part of the sale. The Gemara objects: **But doesn’t** the mishna **teach** the *halakha* governing **a key in similar fashion to** the *halakha* governing **the door,** indicating that **just as a door** is **fixed** in the house, **so too, a key** is **fixed** in the house? **Rather, it is clear** that **the mishna is not in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Meir.**

תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן: הַמּוֹכֵר אֶת הַבַּיִת – מָכַר אֶת הַדֶּלֶת וְאֶת הַנֶּגֶר וְאֶת הַמַּנְעוּל, אֲבָל לֹא אֶת הַמַּפְתֵּחַ; מָכַר אֶת הַמַּכְתֶּשֶׁת הַחֲקוּקָה, אֲבָל לֹא אֶת הַקְּבוּעָה; מָכַר הָאִיצְטְרוֹבֵיל, אֲבָל לֹא אֶת הַקֶּלֶת, לֹא אֶת הַתַּנּוּר, וְלֹא אֶת הַכִּירַיִם, וְלֹא אֶת הָרֵיחַיִם. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר: כׇּל הַמְחוּבָּר לַקַּרְקַע – הֲרֵי הוּא כַּקַּרְקַע.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The Sages taught** in a *baraita* (*Tosefta* 3:1): One **who sells a house has sold the door and the door bolt and the lock, but** he has **not** sold **the key. He has sold the mortar that was hollowed out** of the ground **but not** the mortar **that was fixed** to the ground after its construction. **He has sold the** immovable **lower millstone but not the** portable **upper stone.** And he has sold **neither the oven, nor the double stove, nor the hand mill. Rabbi Eliezer says:** The principle is that **any** item **attached to the ground is** considered **like the ground** and included in the sale.

[Bava Batra 65b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:5)

בִּזְמַן שֶׁאָמַר לוֹ: ״הוּא וְכׇל מַה שֶּׁבְּתוֹכוֹ״ – הֲרֵי כּוּלָּן מְכוּרִין. בֵּין כָּךְ וּבֵין כָּךְ – לֹא מָכַר לֹא אֶת הַבּוֹר, וְלֹא אֶת הַדּוּת, וְלֹא אֶת הַיָּצִיעַ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**When** the seller **says to** the buyer: I am selling you **it and everything that is in it, all these** components **are sold** along with the house. **Both** in **this** case **and** in **that** case **he did not sell the pit or the cistern or the gallery,** as they are considered separate entities that are not at all part of the house.


###### Bava Batra 65b:6
[Bava Batra 65b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:6)

תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן: צִינּוֹר שֶׁחֲקָקוֹ וּלְבַסּוֹף קְבָעוֹ – פּוֹסֵל אֶת הַמִּקְוֶה. קְבָעוֹ וּלְבַסּוֹף חֲקָקוֹ – אֵינוֹ פּוֹסֵל אֶת הַמִּקְוֶה. מַנִּי? לָא רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר וְלָא רַבָּנַן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ **The Sages taught** in a *baraita*: **A duct that one hollowed out and afterward attached** to the ground or to a building **invalidates a ritual bath** through the water it channels to the bath. The water in a ritual bath must be gathered directly from rain or a stream, not drawn with vessels. If one hollowed out a log and used it to channel water into the bath, this is considered drawn water, as he used a vessel. By contrast, if **one attached it** first **and afterward hollowed it out, it does not invalidate the ritual bath.** Before the log was hollowed out, it was already attached to and considered part of the ground, and therefore the act of hollowing it out does not turn it into a vessel. The Gemara asks: **Whose** opinion is this? It appears to be **neither** the opinion of **Rabbi Eliezer, nor** that of **the Rabbis.**


###### Bava Batra 65b:7
[Bava Batra 65b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:7)

הֵי רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר? אִילֵימָא רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר דְּבַיִת – דִּלְמָא הַיְינוּ טַעְמָא, דְּרַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר סָבַר: מוֹכֵר בְּעַיִן יָפָה מוֹכֵר, וְרַבָּנַן סָבְרִי: מוֹכֵר בְּעַיִן רָעָה מוֹכֵר!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara clarifies the question: To **which** opinion of **Rabbi Eliezer** is this referring? **If we say** it is referring to the opinion of **Rabbi Eliezer** in the aforementioned *baraita* **with regard to** the sale of **a house,** that any item attached to the ground is considered part of the house and is sold along with it, there is a difficulty. As **perhaps this is the reasoning** employed in the dispute with regard to the sale of a house, **that Rabbi Eliezer holds** that **one who sells, sells generously** anything that is attached to the ground, **while the Rabbis hold** that **one who sells, sells sparingly,** selling only utensils that serve an intrinsic function in the house and nothing else, even if they are attached to the ground. But this teaches us nothing about the opinions of Rabbi Eliezer and the Rabbis with respect to a ritual bath.

[Bava Batra 65b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Bava%20Batra/r/65b:8)

וְאֶלָּא רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר דְּכַוֶּורֶת דְּבוֹרִים? דִּתְנַן: כַּוֶּורֶת דְּבוֹרִים – רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר: הֲרֵי הִיא כַּקַּרְקַע – וְכוֹתְבִין עָלֶיהָ פְּרוֹזְבּוּל,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**But rather,** the reference must be to the opinion of **Rabbi Eliezer concerning a beehive. As we learned** in a mishna (*Shevi’it* 10:7): With regard to **a beehive** attached to the ground by clay, **Rabbi Eliezer says: It is like land, and** therefore **one may write a document that prevents the Sabbatical Year from canceling an outstanding debt [*prosbol*]** based **upon it.** Such a document cannot be written unless the borrower owns some land, and a beehive is considered like land for this purpose.
