Kommentar zu Bava Batra 2:10
מַרְחִיקִין אֶת הַמִּשְׁרָה מִן הַיָּרָק, וְאֶת הַכְּרֵשִׁין מִן הַבְּצָלִים, וְאֶת הַחַרְדָּל מִן הַדְּבוֹרִים. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי מַתִּיר בַּחַרְדָּל:
Eine Mischrah [ein Ort, an dem Flachs eingeweicht wird, der Grüns in der Nähe verdirbt] ist von Grüns und Lauch (sind distanziert) von Zwiebeln, [Lauch ist schädlich für Zwiebeln, die in ihrer Nähe sind] und Senf (distanziert) entfernt. von Bienen [Senf verdirbt Honig und macht ihn scharf]. R. Yossi erlaubt es mit Senf, [denn er kann ihm sagen: "Bevor du mir sagst, ich soll meinen Senf von deinen Bienen entfernen, entferne deine Bienen von meinem Senf! Denn sie kommen und essen meine Senfblumen!" Die Halacha stimmt mit R. Yossi überein.]

English Explanation of Mishnah Bava Batra
A pool for soaking flax must be distanced from vegetables, and leeks from onions, and mustard plant from bees. Rabbi Yose permits mustard plant. This simple mishnah lists things that will spoil other things if kept near them and therefore must be distanced from them. [Note: part of the processing of flax, a major material for clothing, was soaking it in water].
