כל זית. כזית הנטופה בשעתו – on account that it drips oil, they called it “dripping,” even though it does not drip every year long since when they raised up this name on that fact that at its time, it drips. If he forgot it, It is not forgetting, as it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “And overlook a sheaf in the field,” a sheaf that you always forget it, excluding that which you remember after a while.
שופכני – that its olives spill much oil.
בישני – that it embarrasses all the rest of the trees from the great among of oil that goes out from it, more than its neighbors.
שהוא עושה הרבה – many olives.
שנים שכחה – our anonymous Mishnah is according to the School of Hillel who said above that two are for the poor.
רבי יוסי אומר אין שכחה לזיתים – Rabbi Yosi did not say this other than when Hadrian the Caesar came and destroyed all the country and there were no olives found, but when the olives are found, Rabbi Yosi admits that there is forgetting for olives, and similarly, he whose olives were dripping or dry (not producing oil), they have forgetting.
Similarly, someone who all of his olive trees are in the above mentioned categories of "dripping oil", "its olives spill oil" and "embarassing the other olive trees", then the trees do have "forgetting" [i.e. if all his trees are nameworthy, they lose their "unforgetfulness" quality].
כל זית. כזית הנטופה בשעתו. על שם שהוא נוטף שמן קראו לו נטופה, אע״פ שאינו נוטף בכל שנה הואיל והעלו לו שם זה על שהוא נוטף בשעתו, אם שכחו אינו שכחה דכתיב (דברים כ״ד:י״ט) ושכחת עומר בשדה, עומר שאתה שוכחו לעולם יצא זה שאתה זוכרו לאחר זמן:
שופכני. שזיתיו שופכים שמן הרבה:
בישני. שהוא מבייש כל שאר אילנות מרוב השמן שיוצא ממנו יותר מחביריו:
שהוא עושה הרבה. זיתים מרובים:
שנים שכחה. סתם מתניתין כבית הלל דאמרי לעיל שנים לעניים:
רבי יוסי אומר אין שכחה לזיתים. לא אמר רבי יוסי אלא בזמן שבא אדרינוס קיסר והחריב את כל הארץ ולא היו זיתים מצויין, אבל בזמן שזיתים מצויין מודה רבי יוסי דיש שכחה לזיתים. וכן מי שהיו כל זיתיו נטופה או שופכני או בישני יש להם שכחה:
