Comentario sobre Kidushín 3:13
רַבִּי טַרְפוֹן אוֹמֵר, יְכוֹלִין מַמְזֵרִים לִטַּהֵר. כֵּיצַד. מַמְזֵר שֶׁנָּשָׂא שִׁפְחָה, הַוָּלָד עֶבֶד. שִׁחְרְרוֹ, נִמְצָא הַבֵּן בֶּן חוֹרִין. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, הֲרֵי זֶה עֶבֶד מַמְזֵר:
R. Tarfon dice: Mamzerim puede limpiarse. ¿Cómo es eso? Si un mamzer se casa con una esclava, el niño es un esclavo. Si él (su padre) lo libera, el hijo es un hombre liberado (que puede casarse con un israelita). [Incluso ab initio un mamzer puede casarse con una esclava para limpiar a sus hijos.] R. Eliezer dice: Él (el hijo) es un esclavo mamzer. [la halajá está de acuerdo con R. Tarfon. Y R. Tarfon reconoce que si un fiador se casa con un mamzereth, el niño es un mamzer, porque un fiador no tiene pedigrí.]
Bartenura on Mishnah Kiddushin
ממזר שנשא שפחה – and even ab initio, a Mamzer can marry a maid-servant in order to purify his children. And the Halakah is according to Rabbi Tarfon. But Rabbi Tarfon admits that a slave who married a Mamzeret, the child is a Mamzer, for the slave has no pedigree

Introduction
This mishnah continues to discuss personal status and lineage. The specific issue is whether or not a mamzer can purify his lineage.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kiddushin
Rabbi Tarfon says: mamzerim can be purified. How is this so? If a mamzer marries a slave woman, her son is a slave; if he frees him, it is found that the son is a free man. Rabbi Eliezer says: behold, he is a slave mamzer. Rabbi Tarfon uses the rules in the previous mishnah to find a means by which a mamzer can have a child that is not a mamzer. A mamzer is allowed to marry a slave woman, even though a non-mamzer cannot. If the mamzer owns the slave woman, then he owns the child. If he frees the child the child loses his mamzer status and becomes a regular Israelite. Rabbi Eliezer, however, holds that such a “trick” does not work. The status of the child is “slave mamzer.” When his father/master frees him, he is no longer a slave but he is still a mamzer.
