Negaim 13:2 - 13:3

האבן שבזוית – that is between him and his neighbor jointly.

חולץ את כולו – for when they (i.e., the Rabbis) expound "וחלצו /]“the priest shall order the stones with the plague in them] to be pulled out,” (Leviticus 13:40 – with a plural construction), teaching that both of them pull out/tear out [the stones].

בזמן שהוא נותץ (and at the time when he has to tear down – see Leviticus 13:45) – the entire house.

נותץ שלו – for concerning cutting out/breaking up, it is written (Leviticus 13:45): “its stones and timber”/”את אבניו ואת עציו" , its stones that are his and its timber that is his.

ראש ופתין (if a [twin] house is built with cross-beam and king-beam/principal beam common to both compartments) – it explains in the Arukh, that particular stone or that piece of wood that takes hold from the western side of the course of stones is his, and of the eastern side, the course of stones is his neighbors, he put the stone or that piece of wood is the cross beam. And those stones and pieces of wood that are in this course of stones on the west is one, and that course of stones in the east is one, for they are from the principal beam common to both compartments.

נותן את הקורות לעלייה – and he supports them with pillars and does not tear them down with the house, as it is written (Leviticus 13:45): “its stones and timber and all the coating on the house”/את-אבניו ואת-עציו ואת כל-עפר הבית", but not the stones and timber and coating of the upper story.

נתצין עמו (are torn down with it) – for [the Rabbis] expound on: "את-אבניו ואת-עציו ואת כל-עפר הבית"/ “its stones and timber and all the coating on the house” (Leviticus 13:45), all the stones that were built with it and all the pieces of wood that were built with it and all of the coating that was built with it,” for since there is no upper story on top it, all of them were built with it.

מלבנים (a casing to protect that portion of the beam which rests on the wall) – kinds of square bricks that one spreads out/stretches on the roofs. But there are those who explain that they are similar to door-posts that they make in windows from the outside for beauty, but they are not attached with plaster on the window.

שריגות (lattices) – like a kind of net-work that they make in the window that they look out from there to the public domain.

מלבן (frame)– a long piece of wood that is on the wall that is made to hold upon it the heads of the beams that they should not rot from the moisture of the wall.

בכזית – because leprosy is made an analogy to a corpse, as it is written (Numbers 12:12): “Let her (i.e., Miriam) not be as one dead, [who emerges from his mother’s womb with half his flesh eaten away].”

במשהו – like the limbs of a corpse, as it is taught in [Tractate] Ahilot [Chapter 1, Mishnah 7]. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Eliezer.
