בַּחֲבָלִין, טָהוֹר. הַחֶבֶל מֵאֵימָתַי הוּא חִבּוּר לַמִּטָּה, מִשֶּׁיְּסָרֵג בָּהּ שְׁלֹשָׁה בָתִּים. וְהַנּוֹגֵעַ מִן הַקֶּשֶׁר וְלִפְנִים, טָמֵא. מִן הַקֶּשֶׁר וְלַחוּץ, טָהוֹר. נִימֵי הַקֶּשֶׁר, הַנּוֹגֵעַ בְּצָרְכּוֹ, טָמֵא. וְכַמָּה הוּא צָרְכּוֹ, רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, שָׁלֹשׁ אֶצְבָּעוֹת:
Chi smonta un letto per immergerlo e [mentre lo fa] tocca le corde rimane puro. La corda: quando inizia a essere considerata connessa al letto? Una volta annoda tre file di maglie. E [se un'altra corda era legata a questa] e una persona la tocca: se dal nodo verso l'interno, diventa impuro, ma se dal nodo verso l'esterno, rimane puro. Per quanto riguarda le estremità libere del nodo, chi tocca quella parte necessaria per [il nodo] diventa impuro. E quanto è necessario per questo? Il rabbino Yehudah dice: tre sopracciglia.
Jerusalem Talmud Moed Katan
“One tightens.” Rebbi Yasa said, Ḥizqiah and Rebbi Joḥanan disagree. Ḥisqiah said: making a lattice, warp and woof; tightening, either warp or woof. Rebbi Joḥanan said: making a lattice, either warp or woof; tightening, if it is loose he tightens it. Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba said, everybody agrees that making a lattice means warp and woof. Where do they disagree? About tightening. Ḥisqiah said: either warp or woof; Rebbi Joḥanan said: if it is loose he tightens it. Rebbi Yasa instructed Samuel bar Ḥanina that “making a lattice” means warp and woof. We do not know whether this follows Ḥizqiah or it follows Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba and everybody’s opinion. Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya said before Rebbi Ze`ira: a Mishnah says so that making a lattice means warp and woof, as we have stated there, “when is the rope connected to the bed? If he plaited three boxes.” Could you say warp without woof or woof without warp? Could one pitch woof and make a lattice?
