###### Eruvin 72a:1
[Eruvin 72a:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:1)

וְחַד אָמַר: בְּיַיִן דְּכוּלֵּי עָלְמָא לָא פְּלִיגִי דְּבָעֵינַן תַּרְתֵּי, כִּי פְּלִיגִי בְּפַת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And one said:** In the case **of wine, everyone agrees that two are required,** both a merging of alleyways and a joining of courtyards. **When they disagree** is in a case where an *eiruv* was established **with bread:** Rabbi Meir maintains that both a merging of alleyways and a joining of courtyards are required, whereas the Rabbis say that one is sufficient.


###### Eruvin 72a:2
[Eruvin 72a:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:2)

מֵיתִיבִי: וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים אוֹ מְעָרְבִין אוֹ מִשְׁתַּתְּפִין. מַאי לָאו: אוֹ מְעָרְבִין בְּחָצֵר בְּפַת, אוֹ מִשְׁתַּתְּפִין בְּמָבוֹי בְּיַיִן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara **raises an objection** from the *baraita* itself. **And the Rabbis say:** One may **either establish an *eiruv* or a merging** of alleyways. **What,** does it **not** mean that one **either establishes an *eiruv* in the courtyard with bread or a merging in the alleyway with wine,** which indicates that they also disagreed in a case where a merging of alleyways was established with wine?

[Eruvin 72a:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:3)

אָמַר רַב גִּידֵּל אָמַר רַב, הָכִי קָאָמַר: אוֹ מְעָרְבִין בְּחָצֵר בְּפַת — וּמוּתָּרִין כָּאן וְכָאן, אוֹ מִשְׁתַּתְּפִין בְּמָבוֹי בְּפַת — וּמוּתָּרִין כָּאן וְכָאן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Giddel said that Rav said** that the Rabbis were **saying as follows:** One may **either establish an *eiruv* in the courtyard with bread, and** it would **be** rendered **permitted** to carry both **here,** in the courtyard, **and there,** in the alleyway, **or** one may **establish a merging** of alleyways **in the alleyway with bread, and** it would **be** rendered **permitted** to carry both **here,** in the courtyard, **and there,** in the alleyway.

[Eruvin 72a:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:4)

אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה אָמַר רַב: הֲלָכָה כְּרַבִּי מֵאִיר. וְרַב הוּנָא אָמַר: מִנְהָג כְּרַבִּי מֵאִיר. וְרַבִּי יוֹחָנָן אָמַר: נָהֲגוּ הָעָם כְּרַבִּי מֵאִיר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Yehuda said that Rav said: The *halakha* is in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Meir. And Rav Huna said:** No clear halakhic ruling was issued in his favor, but **the custom is in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Meir.** Therefore, if someone asks, he should be instructed to act accordingly. **And Rabbi Yoḥanan said:** It is not even a custom established by the Sages. Rather, **the people were accustomed** to act **in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Meir,** and we do not tell them they have acted inappropriately.

[Eruvin 72a:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:5)

**מַתְנִי׳** חֲמִשָּׁה חֲבוּרוֹת שֶׁשָּׁבְתוּ בִּטְרַקְלִין אֶחָד, בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים: עֵירוּב לְכׇל חֲבוּרָה וַחֲבוּרָה, וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: עֵירוּב אֶחָד לְכוּלָּן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**MISHNA:** With regard to **five groups** of people **who spent Shabbat in one hall [*teraklin*]** that was subdivided by partitions into separate rooms, each of which had a separate entrance to a courtyard that was shared with other houses, **Beit Shammai say: An *eiruv*** is required **for each and every group,** i.e., each group must contribute separately to the *eiruv* of the courtyard, as each is considered a different house. **And Beit Hillel say: One *eiruv*** suffices **for all of them,** as the partitions do not render the different sections separate houses.


###### Eruvin 72a:6
[Eruvin 72a:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:6)

וּמוֹדִים בִּזְמַן שֶׁמִּקְצָתָן שְׁרוּיִין בַּחֲדָרִים אוֹ בַּעֲלִיּוֹת, שֶׁהֵן צְרִיכִין עֵירוּב לְכׇל חֲבוּרָה וַחֲבוּרָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And** Beit Hillel **concede** that **when some of them occupy** separate **rooms or upper stories, they require** a separate ***eiruv* for each and every group,** and the fact that they are in the same building does not render them one unified group.


###### Eruvin 72a:7
[Eruvin 72a:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Eruvin/r/72a:7)

**גְּמָ׳** אָמַר רַב נַחְמָן: מַחְלוֹקֶת בִּמְסִיפָס, אֲבָל בִּמְחִיצָה עֲשָׂרָה — דִּבְרֵי הַכֹּל עֵירוּב לְכׇל חֲבוּרָה וַחֲבוּרָה. אִיכָּא דְּאָמְרִי, אָמַר רַב נַחְמָן: אַף בִּמְסִיפָס מַחְלוֹקֶת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**GEMARA:** **Rav Naḥman said:** The **dispute** applies only where they divided the hall **with a partition of pegs [*mesifas*]. However,** if they divided it **with** a sturdy **partition ten** handbreadths high, **all agree** that a separate contribution to the ***eiruv*** is required **for each and every group,** as this certainly divides the hall into separate living quarters. **Some say** a different version of the previous passage, according to which **Rav Naḥman said** as follows: **Even** where they merely divided the room **with a partition of pegs,** there is a **dispute** about whether this is considered a full-fledged partition.

פְּלִיגִי בַּהּ רַבִּי חִיָּיא וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בְּרַבִּי. חַד אָמַר: מַחְלוֹקֶת בִּמְחִיצוֹת הַמַּגִּיעוֹת לַתִּקְרָה, אֲבָל מְחִיצוֹת שֶׁאֵין מַגִּיעוֹת לַתִּקְרָה — דִּבְרֵי הַכֹּל עֵירוּב אֶחָד לְכוּלָּן. וְחַד אָמַר: מַחְלוֹקֶת בִּמְחִיצוֹת שֶׁאֵין מַגִּיעוֹת לַתִּקְרָה, אֲבָל מְחִיצוֹת הַמַּגִּיעוֹת לַתִּקְרָה — דִּבְרֵי הַכֹּל צְרִיכִין עֵירוּב לְכׇל חֲבוּרָה וַחֲבוּרָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara relates that **Rabbi Ḥiyya and Rabbi Shimon, son of Rabbi** Yehuda HaNasi, **disagreed about** this issue. **One** of them **said:** This **dispute is with regard to partitions that reach the ceiling, but** with regard to **partitions that do not reach the ceiling, all agree** that **one *eiruv*** suffices **for all of them,** as the partitions do not turn the compartments into separate houses. **And one said:** This **dispute is with regard to partitions that do not reach the ceiling, but** with regard to **partitions that reach the ceiling, all agree** that the compartments are considered separate living quarters, and **they require** a separate contribution to the ***eiruv* for each and every group.**
