טהרות ט׳:ב׳ - ט׳:ג׳

גמר מלמסוק – from harvest his olives.

אבל עתיד ליקח – to purchase olives from the market and to add on to these.

גמר מליקח – that he doesn’t have any intention to purchase more olives, but wishes to borrow olives from others and to add on to these.

אירעו אבל או משתה – and therefore he didn’t add to them, but it is his intention to add [to them] when the mourning period will pass.

טהורין – because they were not made fit for Levitical uncleanness. According to Rabban Gamaliel (see previous Mishnah) who stated: “After the work of preparing them is completed.”

אין טמא אלא מקום מגען – it is not fit to receive Levitical uncleanness other than the place of the falling liquid. Another explanation: if they (i.e., the water) on these olives whose work of preparing them was not completed the liquids are impure, nothing is defiled from them other than the olives that the impure liquids them alone.

המוחל היוצא מהן (the thin secretion that exudes from them) – the water that exudes from the olives prior to their work of preparing them being completed, they do not have the status of law of liquids, and they do not make eatables susceptible [to receive ritual defilement], and they themselves do not receive ritual defilement. And because just as the thin secretion/sap that exudes from the olives is ritually pure until the work of preparing them is completed because he doesn’t desire their existence.

נפלו עליהן משקין טמאין – after the work of preparing them is completed and they are susceptible to receive ritual defilement, all of the olives are ritually impure and even those that the impure liquids did not touch, for the liquid that exudes from them after the work of preparing them is completed for through it, they became susceptible to receive ritual defilement he combines with those impure liquids and receives defilement from them, and afterwards they defile all of the rest of the olives.

המוחל היוצא מהן – (the thin secretion/sap that exudes from them) from the olives whose work of preparing them has been completed.

ר' אליעזר מטהר – for he (i.e., Rabbi Eliezer) does not consider the thin secretion/sap a liquid neither to make susceptible the seeds [to receive ritual defilement] and not to receive defilement like the rest of the liquids (see Tractate Makhshirin, Chapter 6, Mishnah 4).

וחכמים מטמאין – for the thin secretion/sap is considered a liquid whether to make susceptible [to receive ritual defilement] or whether to defile when it exudes from the olives after the work of preparing them is completed.

המוחל היוצא מן הבור – after they remove the oil from the cistern, there remains a thin secretion/sap on the floor of the cistern like water, and as Rabbi Shimon states that it is upon this that Rabbi Eliezer and the Rabbis disagree, Rabbi Eliezer does not consider it liquid, but the Rabbis hold that since it is not possible to have a thin secretion/sap on the floor of the cistern without dilution of oil, it is considered liquid like the oil. And the Halakha is according to the Sages, and like the first Tanna/teacher [of the Mishnah] and not like Rabbi Shimon explained it.
