Talmud sobre Kilayim 2:6
הָרוֹצֶה לַעֲשׂוֹת שָׂדֵהוּ מֵשָׁר מֵשָׁר מִכָּל מִין, בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים, שְׁלֹשָׁה תְלָמִים שֶׁל פָּתִיחַ. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים, מְלֹא הָעֹל הַשָּׁרוֹנִי. וּקְרוֹבִין דִּבְרֵי אֵלּוּ לִהְיוֹת כְּדִבְרֵי אֵלּוּ:
Si un hombre desea colocar su campo en camas [rectas] cada una sembrada con una especie diferente, [cuánto espacio debe dejar entre las camas] Beit Shammai dice, [el ancho de] tres crestas en el campo surcado y Beit Hillel dice, el ancho de un yugo Sharon [que es un yugo más ancho que lo normal]. Las palabras de estos y las palabras de aquellos son muy cercanas entre sí [no hay mucha diferencia entre ellos].
Jerusalem Talmud Peah
Rav said30Here starts the discussion of how large the interruption between two crops of the same kind must be so that two separate peot are due.: Fallow land and ploughed land of a bet rova‘31In general, surface area measurements are given in the Talmudim by the amount of seed grain needed for the area in cultivation. The measurements are standardized by the tradition that the courtyard of the Tabernacle, which was 50 by 100 cubits (Ex. 27:18), defined the area covered by two seah. One seah are six qab. Hence, the area covered by a quarter qab, the bet rova‘, is an area of 5000:48 = 104 1/6 square cubits. A cubit was at least 45 and at most 61 cm, probably 54.6 cm., other produce32For example, if two fields of wheat are separated by a strip of barley. even the tiniest amount. Rebbi Joḥanan said: Fallow land, ploughed land, and other produce at three preliminary furrows33Three wide parallel furrows. According to Rashi (Is. 28:24), in ploughing an uncultivated field one first ploughs wide and coarse “starter” furrows; for sowing one then ploughs narrow ones adapted to the particular seed. According to Maimonides (Kilaim 3:2), the coarse furrows serve to cover breaks in the soil which developed during the heat of summer. There is no practical difference between the two explanations. In any case, the total width of the three furrows cannot be larger than two cubits.. Do they disagree34Is it necessary to assume that Rav and R. Joḥanan present different traditions? One tries to avoid disagreements over basic measurements as much as possible.? What Rav said35In matters of the separating produce only. refers to produce subject to peah, what Rebbi Joḥanan said refers to produce not subject to peah36In the next paragraph it will be explained that, at least for Rebbis Meïr and Jehudah, plots subject to the obligation of peah are more powerful to interrupt between fields of the same kind than those not subject to it.. But did we not state that fallow or ploughed land is subject to peah37At least for the Sages who disagree with R. Meïr in the Mishnah. Since here Rav and R. Joḥanan give different measurements for identical situations, they seem to disagree.? What Rav said refers to an average field, what Rebbi Joḥanan said refers to a plot 50 by 238If the entire field, in this example 100 square cubits, is smaller than a bet rova‘, the rule of Rav becomes inapplicable and must be replaced by a smaller limit..
