Comentário sobre Arachin 6:4
הָיָה מִין אֶחָד מְרֻבֶּה וּמִין אֶחָד מֻעָט, אֵין אוֹמְרִים לוֹ לִמְכֹּר מִן הַמְרֻבֶּה וְלִקַּח לוֹ מִן הַמֻּעָט, אֶלָּא נוֹתְנִין לוֹ שְׁנֵי מִינִין מִן הַמְרֻבֶּה וְכֹל שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ מִן הַמֻּעָט. הַמַּקְדִּישׁ אֶת נְכָסָיו, מַעֲלִין לוֹ אֶת תְּפִלָּיו:
Se ele tinha muitas [ferramentas] de um tipo, e poucas de outro tipo, elas podem não dizer a ele para vender muitas e comprar algumas, mas uma deixa para ele duas das que ele tem muitas e todas ele tem daqueles dos quais ele tem poucos. Quem consagra [todos] seus bens ao templo, eles incluem seus tefilin na avaliação.

English Explanation of Mishnah Arakhin
If he had many [tools] of one kind, and few of another kind, they may not say to him to sell the many and buy some of the few, but one leaves him two of the kind of which he has many and all that he has from those of which he has few. If he only has one of a certain type of tool, but many of another, he doesn’t get the opportunity to sell some tools in order to buy a second tool of the kind of which he has only one. Rather, they just apply the rule as it is normally applied they leave him with two of every kind, and if only has one, too bad for him.

Bartenura on Mishnah Arakhin
וכל שיש לו מן המועט – they leave for him and we don’t sell him another. For in order that it is sufficient for him until now with this, now also it will be sufficient for him. For you might have thought that until now there were people that would lend him, because he had one kind of utensil to lend him another, now that the treasurer took from the abundant [tools], there is no found who would lend him [another], therefore, we will sell him another, it comes to tell us that this is incorrect (see Talmud Arakhin 24a).

English Explanation of Mishnah Arakhin
One who consecrates [all] his possessions to the Sanctuary, they count his tefillin in the evaluation. Tefillin count in assessing the value of one’s property. So if one dedicates the value of his property to the Temple, he must include in the assessment the value of his tefillin. [This brings back memories of the day my wife and I bought our first apartment. I remember taking out the mortgage and buying the house and then realizing that before that moment, the most valuable item I owned were my tefillin!]
