Commentaire sur Halla 1:8

עִסַּת הַכְּלָבִים, בִּזְמַן שֶׁהָרוֹעִים אוֹכְלִין מִמֶּנָּה, חַיֶּבֶת בַּחַלָּה, וּמְעָרְבִין בָּהּ, וּמִשְׁתַּתְּפִין בָּהּ, וּמְבָרְכִין עָלֶיהָ, וּמְזַמְּנִין עָלֶיהָ, וְנַעֲשֵׂית בְּיוֹם טוֹב, וְיוֹצֵא בָהּ אָדָם יְדֵי חוֹבָתוֹ בְּפֶסַח. אִם אֵין הָרוֹעִים אוֹכְלִין מִמֶּנָּה, אֵינָהּ חַיֶּבֶת בַּחַלָּה, וְאֵין מְעָרְבִין בָּהּ, וְאֵין מִשְׁתַּתְּפִין בָּהּ, וְאֵין מְבָרְכִין עָלֶיהָ, וְאֵין מְזַמְּנִין עָלֶיהָ, וְאֵינָהּ נַעֲשֵׂית בְּיוֹם טוֹב, וְאֵין אָדָם יוֹצֵא בָהּ יְדֵי חוֹבָתוֹ בְּפֶסַח. בֵּין כָּךְ וּבֵין כָּךְ, מִטַּמְּאָה טֻמְאַת אֳכָלִין:

La pâte pour chiens, aussi longtemps que les bergers en mangeraient, est obligatoire à Challah . Et on peut faire un Eruv [enceinte de l'espace partagé via la nourriture partagée pour permettre de continuer le Shabbat] à partir de celui-ci. Et on peut entrer dans un Shittuf [un partenariat d'espace pour continuer le Shabbat] avec lui, et on récite les bénédictions [avant et après avoir mangé] dessus, et on peut inviter à Zimmun [appeler ceux qui ont mangé ensemble , au moins trois, pour se réunir pour la bénédiction après le repas] sur elle, et on peut la faire cuire lors d'un festival, et une personne peut utiliser cette pâte pour remplir son obligation à la Pâque [de manger Matsah, ]. Si les bergers ne voulaient pas en manger, ce n'est pas obligé dans Challah , on ne peut pas l'utiliser pour un Eruv ou entrer dans un Shittuf avec lui, et on ne dit pas la bénédiction dessus, et on ne dit pas le Zimmun dessus, et il ne peut pas être cuit lors d'un festival, et on ne remplit pas son obligation avec lui à la Pâque. Dans les deux cas, la pâte est soumise au Tumat Okhalin [l'impureté rituelle affectant la nourriture].

Bartenura on Mishnah Challah

בזמן שהרועים אוכלים ממנה – that the coarse bran was not mixed into it so much.
Ask RabbiBookmarkShareCopy

English Explanation of Mishnah Challah

Dough for dogs:
If shepherds eat it: it is subject to hallah, and one may use it to make an eruv or a shittuf; and one should say the blessings over it, and one should make an invitation for birkat hamazon over it; and it may be made on a festival; and one fulfills his obligation with it on Pesah.
If this dough was prepared well so that the shepherds could also eat it, then it is treated as human food, even though it was made mostly for animals. This has implications in five areas of halakhah: a) it is subject to hallah: Only human food is subject to hallah. b) and one may use it to make an eruv, or a shittuf: An eruv or a shittuf is a common meal which allows one to carry from a house into a courtyard or from a courtyard into the adjoining alleyway on Shabbat. An eruv can also allow one to travel further than the Shabbat limit, which is 2000 cubits from the border of the city (see the introduction to Eruvin for more information). If this dough is eaten by shepherds then it counts as potential human food and can be used to make an eruv or shittuf. c) and one should say the blessings over it, and one should make an invitation for birkat hamazon over it: Before eating this dough one would say “hamotzi” and afterwards “birkat hamazon.” In addition, if eating in a group of at least three, the invitation to recite birkat hamazon would be recited. d) and it may be made on a festival: only human food can be made on Yom Tov, a festival. e) and one fulfills his obligation with it on Pesah: if it was not leavened, then one could use it for matzah on Pesah.

Bartenura on Mishnah Challah

חייבת בחלה – for since it is fit for shepherds, they call it bread.
Ask RabbiBookmarkShareCopy

English Explanation of Mishnah Challah

But if shepherds do not eat it: it is not subject to hallah; and one may not use it to make an eruv, or a shittuf; and one does not say the blessings over it, and one does not make an invitation for birkat hamazon over it; and it may not be made on a festival; and one does not fulfill his obligation with it on Pesah. If it was made in a poor fashion, so that the shepherds would not want to eat it, then it doesn’t count as food and none of the above halakhot apply.

Bartenura on Mishnah Challah

ומערבין בה – for buildings with a common court [they make an Eruv], to take out [food] from one’s home to the courtyard.
Ask RabbiBookmarkShareCopy

English Explanation of Mishnah Challah

In either case it is susceptible to ritual defilement affecting food. Even if it was made in a poor fashion, shepherds might still come to eat it occasionally. Therefore, in any case, the dough is subject to the rules of food impurity. Only food that is eaten solely by animals, for instance straw, would not be subject to these rules.

ומשתתפין בה – the formation of a fictitious partnership in an alley, to remove [food] from the courtyard to the alley.
