R. Eliezer sagt: Yom Tov in der Nähe des Schabbats, beide (unmittelbar) davor oder danach —einer platziert zwei Eruvin und sagt: "Mein erster Eruv ist im Osten und der zweite im Westen" (oder) "Mein erster im Westen und der zweite im Osten." [Wenn er am ersten Tag in eine Richtung und am zweiten Tag in eine andere Richtung gehen musste, kann er am Vorabend des ersten Tages einen Eruv im Osten und Westen platzieren und sagen: "Lass meinen Eruv dazu die Ost-Effekt-Akquisition für mich heute für morgen, und lassen Sie meine Eruv-West-Effekt-Akquisition für mich morgen für den zweiten Tag ben hashmashoth. " Denn R. Eliezer ist der Ansicht, dass Schabbat und Jom Tov nicht als ein langer Tag angesehen werden, sondern als zwei getrennte Heiligkeiten und der Ben-Hashmashoth des Erwerbs der ersten Effekte für sich selbst und nicht für den zweiten Tag.] "Mein Eruv ist (für) der erste (Tag) und der zweite als die Menschen meiner Stadt. " [Das heißt, wenn er nur am ersten Tag und am zweiten Tag gehen musste, musste er sich nicht von seinem Platz bewegen, und er möchte nicht zweitausend von seinem Tchum in beide Richtungen verlieren, er platziert einen Eruv in die Richtung, in die er am ersten Tag gehen möchte, und er sagt: "Lassen Sie seine Eruv-Wirkung für mich für morgen erwerben, und am zweiten Tag werde ich wie die Männer meiner Stadt sein", die keinen Eruv gemacht haben. Oder, wenn er am zweiten Tag und nicht am ersten gehen musste, sagt er: "Lassen Sie diesen Eruv-Effekt für mich morgen Ben Hashmashoth erwerben, und am ersten Tag werde ich wie die Männer meiner Stadt sein."] Und Die Weisen sagen: Er macht einen Eruv in eine Richtung (für beide Tage) oder er macht überhaupt keinen Eruv; oder er macht zwei Tage lang einen Eruv oder er macht überhaupt keinen Eruv. [Dies ist dasselbe wie "in eine Richtung" oben. Warum muss es erwähnt werden? Das sagen die Rabbiner zu R. Eliezer: Stimmen Sie nicht zu, dass er für einen Tag einen Eruv entweder in eine Richtung oder gar nicht macht? Denn er kann nicht sagen: "Lass meinen Eruv einen halben Tag im Osten und einen halben Tag im Westen sein." Auch für zwei Tage— das heißt, für Schabbat und Jom Tov —er macht einen Eruv wie für einen Tag oder er macht überhaupt keinen Eruv. Denn die Rabbiner zweifeln daran, ob Schabbat und Jom Tov als ein Tag angesehen werden oder nicht. Also regieren sie hier streng— dass er keinen Eruv in zwei Richtungen machen darf, indem sie eine Heiligkeit darstellen könnten —und strikt dort, wobei unten gesagt wird, dass wenn es am ersten Tag gegessen würde, es keinen Eruv für den zweiten Tag gibt, da sie zwei verschiedene Heiligkeiten darstellen könnten und nicht als ein langer Tag angesehen werden könnten.] Was tut er (wenn er wünscht das eruv für zwei tage in eine richtung)? Er [der Bote] nimmt es am ersten Tag [dh am Vorabend des Jom Tov vor dem Schabbat] und wartet auf Dunkelheit [bis der Eruv die Akquisition bewirkt]. Dann nimmt er es und kehrt zurück, [damit es nicht verloren geht und er hat keinen Eruv für den zweiten Tag, wie es gelehrt wird: "Wenn sein Eruv am ersten Tag gegessen wurde, ist es ein Eruv für den ersten Tag, aber nicht für den zweiten."] und am zweiten Tag wartet er für dunkel und isst es. [Er nimmt es am zweiten Tag zurück. Denn es wird entschieden, dass, wenn jemand am ersten Tag einen Eruv mit einem Laib macht und am zweiten Tag einen Eruv mit einem Laib machen möchte, er dies mit demselben Eruv tun muss, den er am Tag zuvor als solchen bezeichnet hat ( nichts sagen), aber nicht mit einem anderen Laib. Denn er müsste es als Eruv bezeichnen, und dies würde eine Vorbereitung von Jom Tov bis zum Schabbat darstellen.] Damit er an seinem Gehen gewinnt [Das heißt, er bewirkt, dass er am nächsten Tag (über das Tchum hinaus) geht ] und (er wird gefunden), um an seinem Eruv zu gewinnen, [den er isst. Und an jenem Tag nach dem Schabbat, wo dies nicht möglich ist, nimmt er es am ersten Tag dorthin und isst es nicht, und er kehrt am zweiten Tag dorthin zurück, um zu sehen, ob es noch da ist. (Wenn es so ist), wartet er auf Dunkelheit, danach kann er es essen, wenn er es wünscht.] Wenn es am ersten Tag gegessen wurde, ist es ein Eruv für den ersten, aber nicht für den zweiten. R. Eliezer sagte zu ihnen: Sie stimmen mir zu, dass es sich um zwei (verschiedene) Heiligkeiten handelt. [Denn Sie sagen, wenn sein Eruv am ersten Tag gegessen wurde, dient es nicht für den zweiten Tag. Und wenn es eine Heiligkeit wäre, würde es als ein langer Tag gerechnet, so dass der Ben-Hashmashoth des ersten Tages für beide Tage den Erwerb bewirken würde. Da es sich also um zwei Heiligkeiten handelt, kann er auch einen Eruv in zwei Richtungen machen! Und die Rabbiner folgen in beiden Fällen der strengen Regelung, wie oben erwähnt, und zweifeln daran, ob es sich um eine oder zwei Heiligkeiten handelt. Die Halacha entspricht R. Eliezer, dass Schabbat und Jom Tov zwei Heiligkeiten sind.]
Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
מערב אדם שני עירובין – if he wants to walk on the first day (i.e., whether it is Shabbat or Yom Tov) to this direction and on the second day to that direction, he can make an Eruv to the east and to the west on the eve of the first day, “My Eruv of the east, will acquire for me today for the needs of tomorrow, and my Eruv of the west will acquire for me at twilight of the morrow for the needs of the second day.” For Rabbi Eliezer holds that Shabbat and Yom Tov – they are not like one long day, but rather two [separate days] of holiness, and at twilight of the first, for him he acquires, and not on the second day.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
Introduction
This mishnah deals with setting up a Shabbat border eruv for two consecutive days, one of which is Shabbat the other of which is a festival. As an aside, we learn in this mishnah that just as it is prohibited to go beyond the Shabbat border (2000 cubits) so too on a festival it is prohibited to go beyond the same distance. This is somewhat of an innovation for the verse in the Torah which implies that people must not travel refers only to Shabbat.

עירובי בראשון ובשני כבני עירי – meaning to say, and if he did not need to walk other than on the first day, and on the second [day], he doesn’t need to move from his place, and does not want to lose neither the two-thousand cubits from one direction nor the two-thousand cubits from the other direction, he should make one Eruv to the side/direction that he wishes to go on the first day, and state: “My Eruv will acquire for me for the needs of tomorrow, but on the second [day], I will be like the people of my city/town, who did not make an Eruv.” Or, if he needed to go on the second, but not on the first, he would state: “his Eruv will acquire for me at twilight of the morrow and on the first [day], I will be like the people of my city/town.”

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
Rabbi Eliezer says: if a festival day immediately precedes or follows Shabbat a man may prepare two eruvs and make the following declaration: “my eruv for the first day is that of the east and for the second day is that of the west”; “the one for the first day is that of the west and the one for the second day is that of the east”; “my eruv is for the first day, and for the second day I will be as the people of my town”; or “my eruv is for the second day, and for the first day I will be as the people of my town”. Rabbi Eliezer allows one to make two separate eruvin, one for Shabbat and one for the festival. These two eruvin can function differently. That is to say each can work on opposite sides of the city. Alternatively, he can set up an eruv for one day and have it not be effective for the next day. Rabbi Eliezer holds that Shabbat and the festival are two distinct entities of holiness, and therefore he can set up two different eruvin.

או מערב לשני ימים – that is, to one direction as we state above. But further than this, why do I need it? But rather, this what the Rabbis said to Rabbi Eliezer: “If you admit that for the first day, that you will either make an Eruv in a certain direction or will not make an Eruv at all, for you are not able to say that for half a day, my Eruv is towards the east and half a day, my Eruv is towards the west. For two days also, which are for Shabbat and Yom Tov, either make an Eruv like for the first day, or do not make an Eruv at all,” for the Rabbis doubt whether Shabbat and Yom Tov is it to be considered like one long day or not, make it here for a stringency, for one cannot make an Eruv in two directions for perhaps it is one holiness (i.e., Shabbat and Yom Tov), and here for a stringency as they state later on, we will eat on the first, for there is no Eruv for the second, for perhaps they are two [separate days] of holiness and not like one long day.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
But the sages say: he either prepares an eruv for one direction or none at all; he either prepares one eruv for the two days or none at all. The sages hold that it is impossible for a person to set up two different eruvin for two consecutive days. Either he sets up an eruv for both days, in which case he loses his ability to leave town on the side for which he did not set up an eruv, or he just doesn’t set up an eruv at all and is limited to going 2000 cubits outside of the city in each direction.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
How should he act? He brings [the eruv] on the first day, he lets it get dark and then he takes it and goes away. On the second day [he again carries the eruv to the same place] and lets it grow dark and then he may eat it. He thus benefits both in his going and in [eating] his eruv. The sages now explain how one should set up an eruv if he wishes it to work for two days. What he needs to avoid is the eruv being eaten up before the second day begins, for this will mean that the eruv is not effective on the second day, as we shall learn in the next section. What he should do is take the eruv to wherever he wants it to be (assumedly 2000 cubits outside of the city so that he can later go another 2000 cubits from there) and make sure it is there at dusk on the eve of the first day. This is the time which “sets” the eruv, and it must be in place at this time. As long as it is there at this time, it need not remain there all day. Therefore, he may take it back with him into town, or anywhere he wants to go within the limit. At the second day, he should again make sure that the eruv is in the same place at dusk. Once it is there through dusk, he may eat it. In this way, he gets to extend his Shabbat limit and still eat his eruv (you can have your eruv and eat it too!).

ונוטל ובא לו – lest he lose it and will not have for himself an Eruv for the second day, as it is taught, it is consumed by his Eruv on the first day for the Eruv of the first day and there is no Eruv for the second day.

On the second day [he again carries the eruv to the same place] and lets it grow dark and then he may eat it. He thus benefits both in his going and in [eating] his eruv. Rabbi Eliezer now responds to the sages by saying that they have in essence admitted that the two days are distinct. He knows this because the sages agree that if he set up an eruv for the first day and it didn’t exist when the second day began, the eruv is not valid. If the sages agree that the two days are distinct entities of holiness, then they should agree that one could set up two different eruvin. If they weren’t then the eruv which was good for the first day should also be good for the second, even if it has been eaten up. The mishnah does not provide an answer from the sages. In the Talmud it is explained that the sages don’t know whether the two days are distinct or not, and therefore they are strict in both cases. They don’t allow two different eruvin to be set up, lest they are not distinct. On the other hand, they say that the eruv which was set up for the first day must exist on the second day lest they are distinct holinesses and the eruv for one is not effective for the other.

ובשני – and he returns and sends it on the second day. For we hold that a person who makes his Eruv with bread on the first day and wants to make an Eruv with bread on the second, he must make his Eruv with the same Eruv itself that he called a name upon from yesterday, but now he is silent. But not with another piece of bread, for he must designate this now the name of Eruv, and he would be like preparing from Yom Tov for Shabbat.

But Yom Tov that follows Shabbat, it is not possible like this, which he sends it on the first day and does not eat it and returns and goes there on the second [day] to see if the Eruv awaits the night [at the Sabbath limit], and if he wants, he can eat from it afterwards (i.e., after the Sabbath).

מודים אתם לי שהן שתי קדושות – that you have stated that if the Eruv is consumed on the first day, there is no Eruv on the second, but if there is one level of holiness, it is for him like one long day, and he acquires at twilight that of the first day for both of them, but since they are two separate [days of] holiness, he can make an Eruv also for two directions, but the Rabbis here follow the stringency and there the stringency as we have stated, because they had doubts. But the Halakha is according to Rabbi Eliezer that Shabbat and Yom Tov are two [separate] days of holiness.
