Um ziz [pedra ou madeira projetando-se da parede sobre o domínio público, mais de dez tefachim acima do solo do domínio público] —eles [os do andar superior] podem colocar (objetos sobre ele) e retirá-lo no Shabbath, [pois o ar (isto é, a atmosfera) do domínio público alcança apenas dez tefachim. E são apenas vasos quebráveis, como xícaras e frascos, que podem ser colocados ali, mas não inquebráveis, para que não caiam no domínio público e venham a ser recuperados.] Alguém pode ficar em um domínio privado e se mover (um objeto) em domínio público, [ou seja, ele pode ficar em sua casa ou no telhado e pegar um objeto em domínio público e colocá-lo em outro lugar no domínio público, mesmo que sua cabeça e a maior parte de seu corpo não estejam em público domínio no lugar do objeto, e não decretamos (contra isso) para que ele não o aceite], e ele pode permanecer em domínio público e mover (um objeto) em um domínio privado, desde que ele o faça não o remova dos quatro côvados [em que estava deitado].

Introduction
This mishnah contains two independent mishnayot. The first deals with a ledge in front of a window and the second deals with a person standing in one domain and moving objects in another.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
נותנין עליו – those who live above and take them from him, for the airspace of the public domain does not extend other than up to ten [handbreadths] , and specifically for utensils that break like cups and glass which we place on it. But we do not do so for utensils that do not break, lest they fall into the public domain and they will go and carry them.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
If there was a ledge in front of a window it is permitted to put objects on it or to remove objects from it on Shabbat. The ledge in front of the window of a house is assumedly more than ten handbreadths above the public domain. As we learned in yesterday’s mishnah, the air more than ten handbreadths above the public domain is not considered to be part of the public domain. Therefore, it is permitted to move objects from the house onto the ledge and vice versa. Some commentaries add that the ledge must be four handbreadths wide and long so that it can be considered a private domain.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
עומד אדם ברה"י – in the house or on the roof and he takes an object here and places it there in the public domain, and even though his head and most of his body stands in the public domain in the place of the object, we do not decree that perhaps he will bring it near him.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
A man may stand in a private domain and move objects in a public domain or he may stand in a public domain and move objects in a private domain, provided he does not take them beyond four cubits. The mishnah teaches that a man may stand in one domain and move objects within another domain and that we are not concerned lest he come to bring something from one domain into the other. Had we had that concern we would not have allowed him to stand in one domain and even touch an object in another domain. The only thing that he is not allowed to do is stand in the private domain and move an object four cubits in the public domain, since this is always prohibited.
