שבועות פרק ו׳ משנה ג׳

3
The mishna resumes discussion of the oath imposed by the court in a case where the defendant admits to a part of a claim. If the claimant said: I have a litra, i.e., a specific weight, of gold in your possession, and the defendant responded: You have only a litra of silver in my possession, he is exempt from taking an oath, as his admission relates to a different item than that which the claim relates to. But if the claimant said: I have a gold dinar in your possession, and the defendant responded: You have only a silver dinar, or a tereisit, or a pundeyon, or a peruta in my possession, he is liable to take an oath, as they are all of one type; they are all coins. Since the claim concerns money, the difference between the different types of coins is disregarded, as the claim is essentially referring to the monetary value, not to a specific type of coin. If the claimant said: I have a kor of grain in your possession, and the defendant responded: You have only a half-kor of legumes in my possession, he is exempt. But if the claimant said: I have a kor of produce in your possession, and the defendant responded: You have only a half-kor of legumes in my possession, he is liable, as legumes are included in produce. If one claimed that another owes him wheat, and the defendant admitted to owing him barley, he is exempt; and Rabban Gamliel deems him liable to take an oath. According to Rabban Gamliel, one who admits to a part of the claim is liable to take an oath even if the admission is not of the same type as the claim. With regard to one who claims that another owes him jugs of oil, and the latter then admitted that he owes him pitchers, i.e., the jugs themselves, but not the oil, Admon says: Since he admitted to him with regard to a part of the claim, and his admission was of the same type as the claim, i.e., the claim included both containers and oil and he admitted to owing him containers, he must take an oath. And the Rabbis say: The partial admission in this case is not of the same type as the claim, as he completely denied owing him oil. Rabban Gamliel said: I see the statement of Admon as correct. If one claimed that another owes him vessels and land, and the defendant admitted to owing him vessels but denied the claim of land, or conversely, he admitted to owing him land but denied the claim of vessels, he is exempt from taking an oath, as oaths are not taken concerning claims involving land. If he admitted to part of the claim about the land, he is exempt. If he admitted to part of the claim about the vessels, he is liable to take an oath concerning the entire claim, as property that does not serve as a guarantee, i.e., movable property, binds the property that serves as a guarantee, i.e., the land, so that the oath about the movable property can be extended to require him to take an oath concerning the land as well.
לִיטְרָא זָהָב יֶשׁ לִי בְיָדֶךָ, אֵין לְךָ בְיָדִי אֶלָּא לִיטְרָא כֶסֶף, פָּטוּר. דִּינַר זָהָב יֶשׁ לִי בְיָדֶךָ, אֵין לְךָ בְיָדִי אֶלָּא דִּינַר כֶּסֶף, וּטְרִיסִית וּפֻנְדְּיוֹן וּפְרוּטָה, חַיָּב, שֶׁהַכֹּל מִין מַטְבֵּעַ אַחַת. כּוֹר תְּבוּאָה יֶשׁ לִי בְיָדֶךָ, אֵין לְךָ בְיָדִי אֶלָּא לֶתֶךְ קִטְנִית, פָּטוּר. כּוֹר פֵּרוֹת יֶשׁ לִי בְיָדֶךָ, אֵין לְךָ בְיָדִי אֶלָּא לֶתֶךְ קִטְנִית, חַיָּב, שֶׁהַקִּטְנִית בִּכְלַל פֵּרוֹת. טְעָנוֹ חִטִּין, וְהוֹדָה לוֹ בִשְׂעֹרִים, פָּטוּר. וְרַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל מְחַיֵּב. הַטּוֹעֵן לַחֲבֵרוֹ בְכַדֵּי שֶׁמֶן וְהוֹדָה לוֹ בַקַּנְקַנִּים, אַדְמוֹן אוֹמֵר, הוֹאִיל וְהוֹדָה לוֹ מִקְצָת מִמִּין הַטַּעֲנָה, יִשָּׁבֵעַ. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, אֵין הַהוֹדָאָה מִמִּין הַטַּעֲנָה. אָמַר רַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל, רוֹאֶה אֲנִי אֶת דִּבְרֵי אַדְמוֹן. טְעָנוֹ כֵלִים וְקַרְקָעוֹת, וְהוֹדָה בַכֵּלִים וְכָפַר בַּקַּרְקָעוֹת, בַּקַּרְקָעוֹת וְכָפַר בַּכֵּלִים, פָּטוּר. הוֹדָה בְמִקְצָת הַקַּרְקָעוֹת, פָּטוּר. בְּמִקְצָת הַכֵּלִים, חַיָּב, שֶׁהַנְּכָסִים שֶׁאֵין לָהֶם אַחֲרָיוּת זוֹקְקִין אֶת הַנְּכָסִים שֶׁיֵּשׁ לָהֶן אַחֲרָיוּת לִשָּׁבַע עֲלֵיהֶן:
ג׳
ברטנורא

אלא ליטרא כסף פטור – for there isn’t here a homogeneity of the admission with the claim [of the defendant].

לתך – one-half Kor fifteen Se’ah.

הואיל והודה במקצת הטענה – for it is to him like his claim was for wheat and barley and he admitted to him in one of them. And the Halakha is according to Admon, but the Halakha is not according to Rabban Gamaliel that obligates in his claim wheat and he (i.e., the defendant) admitted to him regarding barley.

פטור – from the oath from the Torah, not on the land and not on the utensils,f or the admission of land does not bring him to [requiring taking] an oath, for there is no law regarding an oath regarding land.

הודה במקצת כלים – for there is admission and denial [with things] that are not property.

חייב – to take an oath even on property through an oath by implication (i.e., the rule permitting the court to insert in an oath an affirmation to which the person concerned cold not have been compelled directly).

זוקקין – causes, affects.(i.e., binds – movable chattel binds the immovable with the reference to the obligation of making oath, the two claims peferrred in one suit are considered as one lawsuit, and theoath must refer to both).

אלא ליטרא כסף פטור. שאין כאן הודאה ממין הטענה:

לתך. חצי כור. ט״ו סאין:

כדי שמן. כדים מלאים שמן:

והודה לו בקנקנים. כדים רקים בלא שמן:

הואיל והודה במקצת הטענה. דהוה ליה כמו טענו חטין ושעורין והודה לו באחד מהן. והלכה כאדמון, אבל אין הלכה כרבן גמליאל דמחייב בטענו חטין והודה לו בשעורים:

פטור. משבועה דאורייתא, לא על הקרקעות ולא על הכלים. שאין הודאת קרקעות מביאתו לידי שבועה, שאין דין שבועה בקרקעות:

הודה במקצת כלים. דאיכא הודאה וכפירה בלאו קרקעות.

חייב. לישבע אף על הקרקעות על ידי גלגול שבועה:

זוקקין. גוררין:

שבועות פרק ו׳ משנה ד׳

One does not take an oath concerning the claim of a deaf-mute, an imbecile, or a minor. And the court does not administer an oath to a minor. But one does take an oath to a minor, or to a representative of the Temple treasury with regard to consecrated property.
אֵין נִשְׁבָּעִין עַל טַעֲנַת חֵרֵשׁ שׁוֹטֶה וְקָטָן, וְאֵין מַשְׁבִּיעִין אֶת הַקָּטָן, אֲבָל נִשְׁבָּעִים לַקָּטָן וְלַהֶקְדֵּשׁ:
ד׳
ברטנורא

אין נשבעין על טענת חרש – as, for example, when the deaf-mute makes a claim against him with a gesture, for the deaf-mute/חרש that the Sages spoke of in every place is one who does not hear and does not speak (see Tractate Terumot, Chapter 1, Mishnah 2).

וטענת קטן – as, for example, when the minor makes a claim against him. For Scripture states (Exodus 22:6): “When a man gives [money or goods] to a another [for safekeeping],” but the giving of a minor is not anything. [And the deaf-mute] and the imbecile is like a minor. And specifically the oath of the Torah is that which they do not impose on the claim of a minor, but the oath of inducement (i.e., where a defendant totally denies a claim to clear himself of suspicion) he is liable to take on his claim.’

אבל נשבעין לקטן ולהקדש – he who comes to collect from the property of a minor, he should not collect other than through an oath. And similar one who consecrates his property [to the Temple] and a document of liability is issued against him and the owner of the liability comes to collect from the property of that which has been consecrated [to the Temple], requires an oath.

אין נשבעין על טענת חרש. כגון שטוענו חרש ברמיזה. דחרש שאמרו חכמים בכל מקום, אינו שומע ואינו מדבר:

וטענת קטן. כגון שטוענו קטן. דאמר קרא כי יתן איש אל רעהו, ואין בנתינת קטן כלום. [והחרש] והשוטה כקטן הוא. ודוקא שבועה דאורייתא הוא שאין נשבעין על טענת קטן, אבל שבועת היסת חייבין לישבע על טענתו:

אבל נשבעין לקטן ולהקדש. הבא ליפרע מנכסי קטן, לא יפרע אלא בשבועה. וכן המקדיש נכסיו ויצא עליו שטר חוב ובא בעל חוב ליפרע מן הנכסים של הקדש, צריך שבועה:
