Se alguém pega uma caixa de vendedor ambulante de especiarias, mesmo que haja muitas variedades, ele é responsável por apenas uma oferta pelo pecado, [sendo um ato de carregar.] Semente de jardim, menos que um figo. [Embora a quantidade de todos os alimentos seja do tamanho de um figo—com estes, uma vez que devem ser semeados, existe uma responsabilidade ainda menor que o tamanho de uma fig.] R. Yehudah b. Betheira diz (que há responsabilidade com) cinco (sementes de jardim). [A halachá não está de acordo com R. Yehudah b. Betheira.] Semente de pepino, dois. Semente de cabaça, dois. Semente de feijão egípcio, dois. [A semente do pepino é superior à maioria das sementes do jardim, e portanto a semente da cabaça e a semente do feijão egípcio.] Uma tremonha viva, de qualquer tamanho [pois é secretada para as crianças brincarem]; um morto, do tamanho de um figo [como em todos os alimentos]. Tziporeth k'ramim [um pássaro encontrado entre palmeiras jovens], vivo ou morto, de qualquer tamanho, pois é usado para curar [a mente]. R. Yehudah diz: Também alguém que pega uma tremonha viva imunda (é responsável) por qualquer tamanho, pois é secretado para as crianças brincarem. [E o primeiro tanna sustenta que um funil impuro não é secretado para uma criança, pois ele pode encontrá-lo e comê-lo. A halachá não está de acordo com R. Yehudah.]

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
If one carries out a peddler’s basket, even though it contains many types of things, he is liable for only one sin-offering. A peddler’s basket contains a variety of goods. We might have thought that one who carries such a basket full of different things from one domain to another would be liable for several sin-offerings, one for each thing in the basket. Therefore, the mishnah teaches that she is liable for only one, for the basket joins them together.

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
Garden seeds, less than the size of a dried fig; Rabbi Judah ben Batera ruled: five. Cucumber seed, two. Gourd seed, two. Egyptian bean seed, two. This section refers to seeds which will be used for planting. The mishnah lists the minimum amount of seeds of certain types of vegetables which would be planted in one furrow. With regard to garden-seeds, the first opinion holds that there must be a total amount of seeds equal to the size of a dried fig. Rabbi Judah ben Batera connects this rule with that which we learned above in mishnah two a person is allowed to plant five different kinds of seeds in one 6 by 6 handbreadth furrow.

פחות מכגרוגרת – even though all the foods, their measure is like a dried-fig’s bulk, these, since they exist for planting even with less that a dried-fig’s bulk, they are liable, but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda ben Beteyra who said five.

English Explanation of Mishnah Shabbat
A live clean locust, whatever its size. Dead, the size of a dried fig. The bird of the vineyards, whether live or dead, whatever its size, because they store it for a medicine. Rabbi Judah says: even one who carries out a live unclean locust, whatever its size, [is liable], because they store it away for a child to play with. The Torah teaches that some locusts are clean and may be eaten and some are unclean and are forbidden. According to the first opinion, one is liable for carrying a live clean locust of any size because they would put it aside for a child to play with. They would not give unclean locusts to children because if the locust died the child might eat it. Rabbi Judah at the end of this mishnah holds that even unclean locusts are stored away for children to play with and therefore one is liable also for carrying them. For dead clean locusts which are edible everyone agrees that the minimum is the same as it is for other foods (7:4). One would not be liable at all for carrying dead unclean locusts since they have no practical use. Due to its inclusion in this section, it seems likely the “bird of the vineyards” is actually a type of locust. Since even the smallest amount is used for medicinal purposes, one is liable for carrying even a small one, whether live or dead.
