נֶאֱכֶלֶת עִם הַזָּר עַל הַשֻּׁלְחָן, וְנִיתֶּנֶת לְכׇל כֹּהֵן שֶׁיִּרְצֶה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**may be eaten with a non-priest** present **at the** same **table.** The Sages did not issue a decree prohibiting this lest the non-priest partake of the *ḥalla*, as the separation of *ḥalla* outside of Eretz Yisrael is itself a rabbinic decree. This proves that the Sages do not issue one decree to prevent violation of another decree. **And** similarly, *ḥalla* from outside of Eretz Yisrael **may be given to any priest that** one **wishes,** even an uneducated priest who would not guard its state of ritual purity. This is in contrast to *ḥalla* from Eretz Yisrael, which may be given only to priests who observe the *halakhot* of ritual purity.

[Chullin 104b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:2)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ אַבָּיֵי: בִּשְׁלָמָא אִי אַשְׁמוֹעִינַן חַלַּת חוּצָה לָאָרֶץ בָּאָרֶץ, דְּאִיכָּא לְמִיגְזַר מִשּׁוּם חַלַּת הָאָרֶץ דְּאוֹרָיְיתָא, וְלָא גָּזְרִינַן – אִיכָּא לְמִשְׁמָע מִינַּהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Abaye said to** Rav Yosef: **Granted,** your inference would be valid **if** the mishna in tractate *Ḥalla* had **taught us** this with regard to ***ḥalla* from outside of Eretz** Yisrael that had been brought **into Eretz** Yisrael. **As** in that case, **there** could be reason **to decree** against eating it while a non-priest is at the same table, despite the fact that the non-priest eating it is prohibited only by rabbinic law, **due to** the concern that one might come to eat ***ḥalla* from Eretz** Yisrael, which is prohibited to the non-priest **by Torah law,** at the same table as a non-priest; **and** yet **we do not decree** against this practice. If so, **there** would be grounds **to learn from** this mishna that the Sages do not issue one decree to prevent violation of another decree.


###### Chullin 104b:3
[Chullin 104b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:3)

אֶלָּא חוּצָה לְאָרֶץ, מִשּׁוּם דְּלֵיכָּא לְמִיגְזַר הוּא. אֲבָל הָכָא, אִי שָׁרֵית לֵיהּ לְאַסּוֹקֵי עוֹף וּגְבִינָה, אָתֵי לְאַסּוֹקֵי בָּשָׂר וּגְבִינָה, וּמֵיכַל בָּשָׂר בְּחָלָב דְּאוֹרָיְיתָא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**But** the mishna actually teaches this *halakha* with regard to *ḥalla* from **outside of Eretz** Yisrael that remains there. It therefore proves nothing about compound decrees, as it can be claimed that the practice **is** permitted only **because there is no** reason **to decree.** Since by Torah law the obligation of *ḥalla* does not apply outside of Eretz Yisrael, there is no chance that such behavior will lead to transgression of Torah law. **But here, if you permit one to place** the meat of **birds and cheese** on the same table, some might **come to place** the **meat** of domesticated animals **and cheese** on a single table **and** to **eat** this **meat** cooked **in milk,** thereby transgressing a prohibition **by Torah law.**


###### Chullin 104b:4
[Chullin 104b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:4)

מַתְקֵיף לַהּ רַב שֵׁשֶׁת: סוֹף סוֹף צוֹנֵן בְּצוֹנֵן הוּא! אָמַר אַבָּיֵי: גְּזֵירָה שֶׁמָּא יַעֲלֶה בְּאִילְפָּס רוֹתֵחַ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Sheshet objects to** the premise of Rav Yosef’s inference: Even if one were to posit that the meat of birds in milk is prohibited by Torah law, **ultimately** this is still a decree issued due to another decree, as **it is** a case of **cold** food **in** another **cold** food, consumption of which is itself prohibited by rabbinic law. **Abaye said:** It is a rabbinic **decree, lest one place** the meat with cheese **in a boiling stewpot,** which is a manner of cooking and therefore prohibited by Torah law.


###### Chullin 104b:5
[Chullin 104b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:5)

סוֹף סוֹף, כְּלִי שֵׁנִי הוּא, וּכְלִי שֵׁנִי אֵינוֹ מְבַשֵּׁל! אֶלָּא גְּזֵירָה שֶׁמָּא יַעֲלֶה בְּאִילְפָּס רִאשׁוֹן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara counters: **Ultimately,** even a stewpot is only **a secondary vessel,** i.e., not the vessel that was on the fire, **and** as a rule, **a secondary vessel does not cook. Rather,** one must say that it is a rabbinic **decree, lest one place** the meat with cheese **in a stewpot** that is **a primary** vessel, i.e., that was on the fire. This is certainly cooking meat in milk, and it is prohibited by Torah law.

[Chullin 104b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:6)

**מַתְנִי׳** הָעוֹף עוֹלֶה עִם הַגְּבִינָה עַל הַשּׁוּלְחָן, וְאֵינוֹ נֶאֱכָל, דִּבְרֵי בֵּית שַׁמַּאי. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: לֹא עוֹלֶה וְלֹא נֶאֱכָל. אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹסֵי: זוֹ מִקּוּלֵּי בֵּית שַׁמַּאי וּמֵחוּמְרֵי בֵּית הִלֵּל.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**MISHNA:** **The** meat of **birds may be placed with cheese on** one **table but** may **not be eaten** together with it; this is **the statement of Beit Shammai. And Beit Hillel say:** It may **neither be placed** on one table **nor be eaten** with cheese. **Rabbi Yosei said: This is** one **of the** disputes involving **leniencies of Beit Shammai and stringencies of Beit Hillel.**

בְּאֵיזֶה שׁוּלְחָן אָמְרוּ? בְּשׁוּלְחָן שֶׁאוֹכֵל עָלָיו, אֲבָל בְּשׁוּלְחָן שֶׁסּוֹדֵר עָלָיו אֶת הַתַּבְשִׁיל – נוֹתֵן זֶה בְּצַד זֶה, וְאֵינוֹ חוֹשֵׁשׁ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The mishna elaborates: **With regard to which table** are these *halakhot* **stated?** It is **with regard to a table upon which one eats. But on a table upon which one prepares the cooked food, one** may **place this** meat **alongside that** cheese or vice versa, **and** need **not be concerned** that perhaps they will be mixed and one will come to eat them together.

[Chullin 104b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:8)

**גְּמָ׳** רַבִּי יוֹסֵי הַיְינוּ תַּנָּא קַמָּא? וְכִי תֵּימָא: אֲכִילָה גּוּפַהּ אִיכָּא בֵּינַיְיהוּ, דְּקָאָמַר תַּנָּא קַמָּא: בְּהַעֲלָאָה קָא מִיפַּלְגִי, בַּאֲכִילָה לָא פְּלִיגִי, וַאֲמַר לֵיהּ רַבִּי יוֹסֵי: אֲכִילָה גּוּפַהּ מִקּוּלֵּי בֵּית שַׁמַּאי וּמֵחוּמְרֵי בֵּית הִלֵּל.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**GEMARA:** The Gemara challenges: The opinion of **Rabbi Yosei is** identical to that of **the first *tanna*. And if you would say** that there **is** a difference **between them** with regard to the permissibility of **eating itself, as the first *tanna* says** that Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel **disagree with regard to placing** meat of birds with cheese on one table, which indicates that **with regard to eating they do not disagree, and Rabbi Yosei said** in response **to** this that they also disagree with regard to the permissibility of **eating** meat of birds in milk, and this is **itself** one **of the** disputes involving **leniencies of Beit Shammai and stringencies of Beit Hillel,** one can refute this claim.


###### Chullin 104b:9
[Chullin 104b:9](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Chullin/r/104b:9)

וְהָתַנְיָא, רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר: שִׁשָּׁה דְּבָרִים מִקּוּלֵּי בֵּית שַׁמַּאי וּמֵחוּמְרֵי בֵּית הִלֵּל, וְזוֹ אַחַת מֵהֶן – עוֹף עוֹלֶה עִם הַגְּבִינָה עַל הַשּׁוּלְחָן, וְאֵינוֹ נֶאֱכָל, דִּבְרֵי בֵּית שַׁמַּאי. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: לֹא עוֹלֶה וְלֹא נֶאֱכָל!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The refutation is as follows: **Isn’t it taught** in a *baraita* that **Rabbi Yosei says** that **six matters** are included **as the** disputes involving **leniencies of Beit Shammai and stringencies of Beit Hillel, and this is one of them:** The meat of **birds is placed with cheese on** one **table, but** it may **not be eaten** together with it; this is **the statement of Beit Shammai. And Beit Hillel say:** It may **neither be placed** on one table **nor be eaten** with cheese. Evidently, Rabbi Yosei agrees that even according to Beit Shammai the meat of birds may not be eaten with cheese.

אֶלָּא, הָא קָמַשְׁמַע לַן: מַאן תַּנָּא קַמָּא? רַבִּי יוֹסֵי – כׇּל הָאוֹמֵר דָּבָר בְּשֵׁם אוֹמְרוֹ מֵבִיא גְּאוּלָּה לָעוֹלָם, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר ״וַתֹּאמֶר אֶסְתֵּר לַמֶּלֶךְ בְּשֵׁם מׇרְדֳּכָי״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rather, this** is what the mishna **teaches us: Who is the first *tanna*?** It is **Rabbi Yosei.** The identification is important, since **whoever reports a statement in the name of the one who said it brings redemption to the world. As it is stated** with respect to the incident of Bigthan and Teresh: **“And Esther reported it to the king in the name of Mordecai”** (Esther 2:22), and Mordecai was later rewarded for saving the king’s life, paving the way for the miraculous salvation.

תְּנָא אַגְרָא חֲמוּהּ דְּרַבִּי אַבָּא: עוֹף וּגְבִינָה נֶאֱכָלִין בְּאַפִּיקוֹרַן. הוּא תָנֵי לַהּ, וְהוּא אָמַר לַהּ: בְּלֹא נְטִילַת יָדַיִם וּבְלֹא קִינּוּחַ הַפֶּה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The Gemara continues discussing the consumption of poultry cooked in milk. The Sage **Agra, the father-in-law of Rabbi Abba, taught:** The meat of **birds and cheese may be eaten freely** [***apikoren***], i.e., there is no need to be strict in this matter. The Gemara notes: **He,** Agra, **teaches it and he says it,** i.e., explains his statement: The meat of birds and cheese may be eaten **without washing** one’s **hands and without wiping the mouth** between the consumption of each.

רַב יִצְחָק בְּרֵיהּ דְּרַב מְשַׁרְשְׁיָא אִיקְּלַע לְבֵי רַב אָשֵׁי, אַיְיתוֹ לֵיהּ גְּבִינָה – אֲכַל, אַיְיתוֹ לֵיהּ בִּשְׂרָא – אֲכַל, וְלָא מְשָׁא יְדֵיהּ. אָמְרִי לֵיהּ: וְהָא תָּאנֵי אַגְרָא חֲמוּהּ דְּרַבִּי אַבָּא: עוֹף וּגְבִינָה נֶאֱכָלִין בְּאֶפִּיקוֹרֶן, עוֹף וּגְבִינָה – אִין, בָּשָׂר וּגְבִינָה – לָא!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara relates: **Rav Yitzḥak, son of Rav Mesharshiyya, happened** to come **to the house of Rav Ashi. They brought him cheese,** and **he ate** it. Next **they brought him meat,** and **he ate** it **without** first **washing his hands.** The members of Rav Ashi’s household **said to him: But didn’t Agra, the father-in-law of Rabbi Abba, teach** only that the meat of **birds and cheese may be eaten freely?** One can infer that with regard to the meat of **birds and cheese, yes,** one may eat them without washing one’s hands in between, but with regard to the **meat** of domesticated animals **and cheese, no,** one may not.

אֲמַר לְהוּ: הָנֵי מִילֵּי בְּלֵילְיָא, אֲבָל בִּימָמָא הָא חָזֵינָא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rav Yitzḥak **said to them: This statement** of Agra applies only if one eats them **at night,** as one cannot see whether some of the food of the previous dish still remains on his hands, and he must therefore wash them. **But** if one eats **by day, I** can **see** that no food remains on his hands, and consequently there is no need to wash them.

תַּנְיָא: בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים: מְקַנֵּחַ, וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: מֵדִיחַ. מַאי ״מְקַנֵּחַ״ וּמַאי ״מֵדִיחַ״?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**It is taught** in a *baraita*: **Beit Shammai say:** Between the consumption of meat and milk one must **wipe** out his mouth, **and Beit Hillel say** that he must **rinse** his mouth. The Gemara asks: **What** is the meaning of the word: **Wipe [*mekane’aḥ*], and what** is the meaning of the word: **Rinse [*mediaḥ*]?**
