שלש ארצות לשביעית – they are divided for the matter of the law of the Seventh Year.

כל שהחזיקו עולי בבל (all-of the land- that was occupied by those who returned from Babylonia)- Ezra and his followers when they came up from Babylonia.

לא נאכל ולא נעבד (may not be eaten, nor the land cultivated) – for the working of this land is forbidden in the Seventh Year, and if it is worked and it grows, it is prohibited to eat from those things that grow. Another explanation, and this is the essence, it is not eaten after the Seventh Year without removal and is not cultivated in the Seventh Year.

מכזיב ועד הנהר ועד אננום – Kezib is in a continuous line/stretched towards the north to the side of the east, and a strip goes out from Acre/Akko that sits/dwells on a square of the Land of Israel on the northeastern angle and that strip is drawn/stretched towards the north and goes until Kezib, and another strip is stretched from Acre/Akko towards the east and in it is the river mentioned here, and these two strips were conquered by those who came up from Egypt, and were not conquered by those who came up from Babylonia (following the first Exile in 586-516 BCE).

ועד אמנום – this is Mount Hor that is written in the boundaries of the Land [of Israel] in the Torah portion אלה מסעי/”These were the marches [of the Israelites],” (Numbers 34:8): “From Mount Hor draw a line [to Lebo-Hamath, and let the boundary reach Zedad],” we translate in Aramaic in the Jerusalem [Talmud] the Mount of Amamum, and it is in the north of Land of Israel to the western side near the Great Sea (i.e., the Mediterranean Sea), and this also, those who came up from Babylonia did not conquer, therefore, it is eaten after the removal, and regarding the other language, if it (i.e., that land) was cultivated in the Seventh Year, it can be eaten, for the first holiness was sanctified only for that particular time, but was not sanctified for the future [days] to come , and is not worked, and regarding working [the land]/cultivation, they were more stringent to prohibit than the Rabbis.

מנהר ומאמנום ולפנים – such is written in all the books, and more, would be pleasant if we had had the reading "ולחוץ"/gong to outside [the Land]/ But it is possible to interpret in a forced manner “from the river and beyond – to the side of the river outward to the Land, and similarly, from the beginning of Mount Amanum and beyond to the side of the Mount is called “beyond/inside.”

עושים בתלוש – even with those who are suspected [of violating the Seventh Year by working the land], whereas in the Land of Israel, it is taught in the Mishnah (Tractate Sheviit, Chapter 5, Mishnah 9), that “she may not sift or grind [flour] with her [since the grain was gathered in violation of the law].”

סוריא – Aram Naharayim and Aram Tzovah that David conquered, and it is not like the Land of Israel for all matters because it was conquered before he (i.e., David) conquered the entire land of Israel, and in some of the laws, it was made to be like the Land of Israel and in some of them, like the Diaspora/outside the Land of Israel.

אבל לא במחובר – as for example, harvesting olives, harvesting [grain] and harvesting grapes, and especially that which is guarded, but that which is declared ownerless, even in the Land [of Israel], it is permitted, as it is taught in Torat Kohanim (the Halakhic Midrash on the Book of Leviticus), from that which is guarded/preserved, you cannot harvest grapes, but you may harvest grapes from that which is declared ownerless, and the reason that they decreed in Syria regarding that which is attached, in order that they should not leave the Land of Israel and reside in Syria, and regarding that which is detached, they permitted in order that the poor people that are in the land of Israel will find a bit of room/space in Syria which is close by to them, and they won’t have to leave from the Land of Israel to the Diaspora/outside the Land of Israel.

כל שכיוצא בו מותר בא"י – according to the Torah, such as for example, something detached, even though from the Rabbis, it is prohibited without a change of form we perform it in Syria just as we normally do and we don’t need to change anything. Alternatively, this is what he said: All that is in a similar manner is permitted in the Land [of Israel] with something declared ownerless, they perform it in Syria, even with something guarded/preserved, but that which is attached is prohibited from the Rabbis in the Land [of Israel] even when it is declared ownerless.

בצלים שירדו עליהם גשמים – onions of the Sixth [Year] which entered into the Seventh [Year, and rain fell upon them and they grew, if the leaves blackened with the knowledge that they grew and added, and the growth of the Seventh Year came and nullified the essence, even though it is a lot. But if the leaves became green, they we go and they wither and it is not from the Land [of Israel] that they increased.

אם יכולין ליתלש בעלין – it is the manner of onions when they are compee that leave on their own from the land and are easy to detach, and if the leaves are strong, and when you grab hold of them, you are able to detach the onions from the ground, then they have certainly grown during the Seventh Year.

כנגד כן למוצאי שביעית מותרים – we are not speaking about onions of the Seventh Year that went out to the aftermath of the Seventh Year, fo we ae not lenient with them all that much, for the permitted growth of a little bit will raise the prohibition, but the ending clause [of the Mishnah] also speaks regarding onions of the Sixth Year that were uprooted in the Sixth Year and then return and were replanted in the Seventh Year, and after they grew a little bit in the Seventh Year, he uprooted them and replanted them in the Eighth Year, and because they had grown already in the Sixth Year, they did n’t add even a little bit in the Seventh Year, and they were prohibited, as when they returned and added a little bit in the Eighth Year, he retracted that permission and nullified the minute prohibition, for also that of the Sixth Year assisted to nullify it the end of permitted growh. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Hanina ben Antigonos.

משיעשה כיוצא בו – from what is sown on the aftermath of the Seventh Year there is growth in a similar manner that we suspend concerning it; alternatively, because the permit is greaterthan the prohibition and it was abolished.

הבכיר – a place that its fruit ripens more quickly than in the rest of the places.

הותר האפל – for we assign it that he brought them from the place of those that ripen early.

מוצאי שביעית מיד – because they would thing vegetables from outside the Land [of Israel] and it was greater than the vegetation of the Land of Israel. But I heard the reason since that in two or three days, [the new crop] of the same vegetable has become ripe.

שמן שריפה – impure oil of heave-offering since it is fit for burning, they call it “burning oil,” and hey made an preference in the Land [of Israel] for burning, as we find in the ritually unfit holy things that are burned in their places, and similarly, the fruit/produce of the Seventh Year requires removal in the Land [of Israel] as it is written (Leviticus 25:7): “[and your cattle and the bests] in your land may eat all its yield. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

אין מביאין תרומה מחוצה לארץ לארץ – since the heave-offering/Terumah, which Kohanim search after it to the granaries/threshing floors, the Rabis wee concerned that the Kohanim would pursue after it and they would go outside the Land [of Israel] to bring the Terumah. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.
