Kommentar zu Shabbat 13:6
צְבִי שֶׁנִּכְנַס לַבַּיִת וְנָעַל אֶחָד בְּפָנָיו, חַיָּב. נָעֲלוּ שְׁנַיִם, פְּטוּרִין. לֹא יָכֹל אֶחָד לִנְעֹל וְנָעֲלוּ שְׁנַיִם, חַיָּבִין. וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן פּוֹטֵר:
Wenn ein Hirsch [von selbst] in ein Haus eingetreten ist und einer (die Tür) daran verschlossen hat, haftet er [es wird als gefangen betrachtet]. Wenn zwei es verschlossen haben, sind sie befreit, [dies wird als "zwei, die eine Arbeit verrichteten" betrachtet.] Wenn man es nicht (allein) sperren konnte und zwei es verriegelten, haften sie. [Da zwei erforderlich sind, um es zu verschließen, führt jeder eine Arbeit aus, denn ohne ihn wäre dies nicht möglich.] R. Shimon befreit (sie). [Die Halacha stimmt nicht mit R. Shimon überein.]
Bartenura on Mishnah Shabbat
צבי שנכנס – [a deer who enters] on its own into the house and someone locks [the door] before him, that is his “hunting.”

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
Introduction
This mishnah is similar to 10:5 above, where we learned that if two people jointly perform a labor that could have been performed by one person, they are exempt. If they jointly perform a work that required two people, the sages say that both are liable and Rabbi Shimon exempts them both.

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
If a deer enters a house and one person shuts [the door] before it, he is liable. By closing the door, she is liable, even though she didn’t actually cause the deer to come into the house.

Bartenura on Mishnah Shabbat
לא יכול אחד לנעול – it is the manner to lock it in with two [people], each of them has [performed] a [forbidden] labor that without him [doing so], it would not have been accomplished.

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
If two shut it, they are exempt. If one could not shut it, and both shut it, they are liable. Rabbi Shimon exempts them. If two shut the door, both are exempt because they have both performed only half a labor. However, if the door was so large (or the people so small!) that they could only close it together, they are both liable. Rabbi Shimon exempts them, because he holds that two people can never be liable for one jointly performed labor.
