הַבַּיִת שֶׁנִּסְדַּק, טֻמְאָה בַחוּץ, כֵּלִים שֶׁבִּפְנִים טְהוֹרִין. טֻמְאָה בִפְנִים, כֵּלִים שֶׁבַּחוּץ, בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים, עַד שֶׁיְּהֵא בַסֶּדֶק אַרְבָּעָה טְפָחִים. בֵּית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים, כָּל שֶׁהוּא. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר מִשּׁוּם בֵּית הִלֵּל, פּוֹתֵחַ טָפַח:

If a house was cracked, if there is impurity outside, vessels that are inside are pure. If there is impurity inside, vessels that are outside, Beit Shammai says [they are pure] unless the crack is four handbreadths wide, but Beit Hillel says any size[d crack]. Rabbi Yosi says in the name of the House of Hillel that it must be a handbreadth's space.
