Tosefta zu Peah 8:6
מִדָּה זוֹ אֲמוּרָה בְּכֹהֲנִים וּבִלְוִיִּם וּבְיִשְׂרְאֵלִים. הָיָה מַצִּיל, נוֹטֵל מֶחֱצָה וְנוֹתֵן מֶחֱצָה. הָיָה לוֹ דָבָר מֻעָט, נוֹתֵן לִפְנֵיהֶם, וְהֵן מְחַלְּקִין בֵּינֵיהֶם:
Diese Maßnahme gilt für Priester, Leviten und Israeliten. Wenn jemand etwas retten will [z. B. für arme Verwandte], kann er die Hälfte behalten und die Hälfte geben. Wenn er eine kleine Menge hat [weniger pro anwesender armer Person als die angegebenen Mengen], stellt er sie vor sie und sie teilen sie unter sich auf.
Tosefta Peah
They may not give a poor person wandering from place to place less than a loaf worth a pundion at a time when four seahs [of wheat cost] one sela (see Peah 8:7, following Kulp Tr.). If he spends the night [at a place], they must give him the cost of what he needs for the night (ibid.), oil and pulse. If he stays over Shabbat they must give him enough food for three meals (ibid.), oil, pulse, fish, and vegetables. In what context does this apply? [It applies] when they know him, [in which case] they even clothe him (Y. Peah VIII.6.8). [But] if he [is someone who] is just going around to all the entrances [i.e., begging from door to door], they do not get involved with him in every thing (see Ketubot 67b:9).
