Sheviis 3:1 - 3:2

מאימתי מוציאיןם זבלים לאשפות – it is the manner of thos who work the land to bring in the manure to one place in the field and make there a large dung-heap until he disperses It in the field to manure it.

משיפסקו עוברי עבירה – to work the land in the Seventh Year and prior to that those who transgress [the laws of the Seventh Year] cease, it is forbidden so that they do not say that this is from those who transgress [the Seventh Year] and that he removes it to manure his field. And there are books in wich it is written them, that those “who perform work” and this is it (i.e., the correct reading).

משייבש המתוק – that the manure will be dried up as it gives a sweetness to the fruits/produce.

משיקשר – when it begins to dry up, it thickens and makes clumps/becomes knotty excrescences, and their words are close to being equivalent. And in the Jerusalem Talmud, it explains that when the sweetness dries out, fissures in the group of fields/valley when the rain falls fill up with water and do not dry up other than after a while, and they are called מתוק /sweet on account of (Job 21:33): “The clods of the wadi are sweet to him, [everyone follows ehind hi, innumerable are those who precede him].”

משפלות (wicker baskets carried on a pole over the shoulder) - baskets that they carry out in them manure and each wicker bashed holds a LETEKH (15 SEAH of dung) which is the burden of the donkey, and the LETEKH is one-half of a KOR which is fifteen SEAH.

מוסיפין על המשפלות – he places in one dunk heap wicker baskets like he wishes.

ואין מוסיפין על האשפות – to make more than three dung-haps in a Bet Seah (50 cubits by 50 cubits) , so that he will not appear as if he is manuring the field.

ר' שמעון אומר אף על האשפות – they may add [to the dung heaps] since there is a large community in one place and it does not appear like manuring. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.
