Oholos 7:3 - 7:4

כולן טמאים – all of the vessels that are lying underneath the lintel of the opening in the empty space of the openings from the outside, all are ritually impure, even though that the openings are locked, for the Sages decreed defilement/impurity on the place which is the path for the removal of the defilement, for ultimately the corpse will leave through that path.

חשב להוציאו באחד מהן – even though it was not opened.

או בחלון שיש בו ארבעה – that through this the Sages estimated that it is appropriate for the removal of the corpse.

הציל על כל הפתחים – that are locked.

יחשוב עד שלא ימות המת – that from when the designation of defilement descended to the openings through the death of the corpse, it further does not ascend from them through intention but rather through action, such as when it is opened.

ובית הלל אומרים אף משמת – for intention releases the designation of defilement from the openings from here and onwards. But vessels that were in the openings prior to the intention, the School of Hillel agrees that they are impure.

היה – one of the openings was blocked up with stones.

סתום – with stones.

כשיפתח ד' טפחים – the rest of the openings were protected.

כשיתחיל – to open them, the remainder of the openings were protected.

בפותח תחלה – as for example a wall that lacks an opening and one comes to make a new opening, the other openings are not protected until he opens it four [handbreadths] by four [handbreadths].

והוציאוה מבית לבית – and in the second house she gave birth to a dead offspring, but it is doubtful to us if [the offspring came out dead from first house].

בשמן שהיא ניטלת בגפים (at the time that she is carried by her arms- put around the neck of her supporters) – that her colleagues/friends take it with her arms for she is not able to walk, we are concerned that the offspring came out dead from the first house.

הקבר – the womb of the woman that was opened when the offspring leaves it.

אין לנפלים פתיחת הקבר וכו' – this is the conclusion of the matter of Rabbi Yehuda. And this is what he said: that which we said that when the womb opened, there is no time to walk we didn’t say this other than regarding a non-viable birth until the fetus is (on leaving the vagina) forms a round head like a coil, meaning to say that he has a large round head like this spindle that the women sew on it a thread of warp/longitudinal direction, but if the non-viable birth/fetus did not have a round head like a coil but rather smaller than this, even though the womb was opened and the head of the fetus exited outside, she has time to walk and we are concerned lest his head came out from the first house. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yehuda.
