המניח את הכד וכו׳ ושברה פטור. לפי שאין דרך בני אדם להתבונן בדרכים:
ואם הוזק בה בעל החבית חייב. ואפילו הפקירה, שכל המפקיר נזקיו שלא היה לו רשות מתחלה לעשותן, כאילו לא הפקירן:
או שלקה בחרסיה חייב. דסבר נתקל פושע הוא ולאו אונס הוא, ולכך חייב:
במתכוין חייב. אם נתכוין לזכות בחרסיה ובמים אחר שנשברה כדו, חייב בהזיקן, דהוי ליה בורו שהזיק. ואם לא נתכוין לזכות בהן, הואיל ועיקרו אנוס הוא, דסבר נתקל לאו פושע הוא, הרי החרסים והמים הפקר לאחר שנאנס, ולפיכך פטור. והלכה כר׳ יהודה דנתקל לאו פושע הוא. ומאחר דאנוס הוא ולא נתכוין לזכות בחרסים ובמים, הוי כאילו לא היו מעולם שלו ופטור על נזקיהם:

בבא קמא פרק ג׳ משנה ב׳
Bartenura
השופך מים ברה"ר – even though that he is operating with permission, such as during the rainy season where it is permitted to pour water in the public domain, even so, if someone else suffered damage from them, he is liable for his damages.
המצניע את הקוץ וכו' – and such as when he hit them in the public domain , and similarly, someone makes his fence out of thorns and they blossomed in the public domain. But if he squeezed them in within his own [property] and someone else was caused damage by them, he is exempt [from liability], for it is not the manner of people to rub one’s self against a wall.
השופך מים ברה״ר. אע״ג דברשות קעביד, כגון בימות הגשמים שמותר לשפוך מים ברה״ר אפילו הכי אם הוזק בהן אחר, חייב בנזקו:
המצניע את הקוץ ובו׳ וכגון שהצניען ברה״ר. וכן הגודר גדרו בקוצים והפריחן לרה״ר. אבל המצמצם בתוך שלו והוזק בהן אחר, פטור. שאין דרך בני אדם להתחכך בכתלים:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
