חָבִית שֶׁשָּׁקְעָה לְתוֹךְ בּוֹר שֶׁל יַיִן וְנָגַע בּוֹ טְבוּל יוֹם, מִשָּׂפָה וְלִפְנִים, חִבּוּר. מִן הַשָּׂפָה וְלַחוּץ, אֵינוֹ חִבּוּר. רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן בֶּן נוּרִי אוֹמֵר, אֲפִלּוּ עַל גַּבָּהּ רוּם קוֹמָה וְנָגַע כְּנֶגֶד פִּיהָ, חִבּוּר:
Regarding a barrel [containing <i>terumah</i> wine] which sank into a cistern of [<i>chullin</i>] wine, and a <i>tevul yom</i> touched it, if [he touched the wine in the barrel] from the rim and inwards, it is considered connected [i.e. all the wine in the barrel is impure]; if from the rim and outwards, it is not considered connected [i.e. it is all pure]. Rabbi Yohanan ben Nuri says: even if he touched [the wine] opposite the mouth of the barrel, above it [at a distance] the height of a person, it is considered a connection.
