Não se pode ficar em um domínio privado e beber em domínio público, ou em domínio público, e beber em domínio privado, a menos que ele traga a cabeça e a maior parte do corpo para o local onde bebe. [Isso, quando ele bebe com recipientes dos quais ele precisa—um decreto para que ele não venha trazê-los (ao seu domínio). Mas com vasos dos quais ele não precisa, é permitido, mesmo que ele não traga a cabeça e a maior parte do corpo para o domínio (da água)]. Da mesma forma, com um barril (para prensagem de vinho), [em relação ao dízimo (ma'aser). Se a cabeça e a maior parte do corpo estiverem no tanque, ele bebe sem o dízimo, sendo "casual" (em oposição ao "fixo"), mas fora do tanque, ele não tem permissão para beber sem o dízimo, sendo esse " fixo "beber". Pode-se receber (água) de uma mazcheilah (uma calha do telhado) [É chamado "mazcheilah", pois qualquer coisa que "rasteja" ao longo de uma parede ou no chão é chamada "zochel", viz. (Deuteronômio 32:24): "zochalei afar" ("rastreadores no pó")] abaixo de dez tefachim [Entende-se assim: Alguém pode ficar em domínio público e receber (água) a mazcheilah em um navio (que é realizada) menos de dez tefachim (do domínio de domínio público. ("receba" :) especificamente, conforme explicado na gemara. Mas ele não pode pressionar a boca ou um vaso contra uma mazcheilah que esteja a menos de três tefachim do telhado, mesmo que seja inferior a dez tefachim (do solo do domínio público) .Porquanto percorre toda a parede e a menos de três tefachim do telhado, é considerado o telhado e ("pressionando , "etc.) constituiria transportar do telhado, um domínio privado, para o domínio público.]; e ele pode beber de um cachimbo em qualquer caso. [Isto é, seja" recebendo "ou" pressionando "um cachimbo sempre se projeta para o domínio público (a gemara qualifica isso como se referindo a um tubo que não é de quatro por quatro tefachim e, portanto, não é um domínio em si.)]
Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
וישתה ברה"ר – and these words regard with utensils that require him, for we make the decree as perhaps a person will carry it, but with utensils that don’t require him, it is permissible, even if he didn’t bring in his head and the majority of his body into the public domain.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
וכן בגת – regarding tithing, that if he brought his head and the majority of his body into the wine-pressing vat, he can drink without tithing, for it is considered a ‘chance’/incidental drinking but outside the wine-pressing vat, he is not allowed to drink without tithing for that would be regular drinking.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
A man may not stand in a private domain and drink in the public domain or stand in a public domain and drink in a private domain unless he puts his head and the greater part of his body into the domain in which he drinks. If one stands in one domain and drinks from another, he is considered to be bringing water from one domain to the other. This is the opposite of the case of urinating in the previous mishnah. However, this is permitted if his head and most of his body are in the domain in which he is drinking. Even though his legs are in the other domain, since the water won’t really go directly down to his legs this is permitted.

And similarly concerning a winepress. The same rule as above also applies to standing outside of a winepress and drinking directly from the winepress. This is prohibited unless his head and most of his body is in the area of the winepress. The Talmud explains that this is prohibited even if the winepress is only a karmelit and not a private domain.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
המזחלה – like a kind of sloping building made next to a wall where water is running or on top of the ground which is called “flowing”/זוחל as it is written (Deuteronomy 32:24): “[with venomous] creepers in dust.”

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
A man may intercept water from a gutter at a level below ten handbreadths, This refers to someone standing in the public domain who wishes to collect the runoff rainwater overflowing from the gutters on a roof. He may not collect this water directly from the gutter because the gutter is in the private domain and he is in the public domain. What he should do is put his vessel ten handbreadths within the ground of the public domain and catch the water there. Once the water is within the ten handbreadths mark it is already in the public domain and he is therefore not taking water from one domain to another.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
למטה מעשרה טפחים – is our reading, and this is how it should be understood: A person stands in the public domain and catches [liquid] in a vessel that is ten handbreadths lower from the water that is coming down from the gutter/spout and he catches it explicitly as it explains in the Gemara (Talmud Eruvin 99b) but he does not combine/join and attach to the mouth or the utensil to the spout which is less than three [handbreadths] nearest the roof, even though it is less than ten [handbreadths], nevertheless, for since it is lying on the length of the wall and within three [handbreadths] of the roof, it is like the roof and it is like removing from the roof which is the private domain to the public domain.

English Explanation of Mishnah Eruvin
And from a water-spout he may drink in any manner. Whereas the gutter goes all the way around the wall, the water spout goes straight from the wall emptying out in the public domain. It does not have the status of a private domain and therefore he may drink directly from it.

Bartenura on Mishnah Eruvin
ומן הצנור מ"מ – that is to say, whether it catches or whether it attaches because the spout always protrudes and goes out to the public domain, and in the Gemara (Talmud Eruvin 99b) it establishes that when the spout lacks four [handbreadths] by four [handbreadths] it doesn’t divide a domain to itself.
