Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Taharos Perek 8 Mishnah 6
טהרות פרק ח׳ משנה ו׳
Bartenura
כל המיוחד למאכל אדם – as, for example, mere/undefined foods.
טמא – the ritual impurity of foods [is impure] until it becomes invalid/unfit from being the food for a dog.
עד שייחדנו לאדם – that there is a separation between removing defilement from it and bringing defilement to it.
גוזל שנפל לגת – when it didn’t fall into the vat, thee is no dispute [between] Rabbi Yohanan ben Nuri and the Rabbis. For the carrion of a ritually pure bird in the cities that doesn’t require intention to declare it food, because there a lot of people with those who come to the marketplace and consume the carrion of a pure bird. But in the villages where there isn’t a lot of people, it requires intention, as is explained in chapter 1 (see Mishnah 1). Where they disagree is where it (i.e., the bird) fell into the vat and died in the cities, the Rabbis hold that even though that in the cities it doesn’t require intention/giving thought to it, where it fell into the vat, his vat made it detestable and it is not appropriate/fit and requires intention/giving thought to it, whereas Rabbi Yohanan ben Nuri holds that his vat did not make it rejected, and it is like the rest of the carrion of ritually pure birds that don’t require intention/giving thought to it in the cities. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yohanan ben Nuri.
חישב עליו חרש שוטה וקטן – to feed it to Canaanites.
כל המיוחד למאכל אדם. כגון סתם אוכלין:
טמא. טומאת אוכלין עד שיפסל מאכילת הכלב:
עד שייחדנו לאדם. דיש חילוק בין אפוקי טומאה מיניה, לאתויי ליה טומאה:
גוזל שנפל לגת. כשלא נפל לגת לא פליגי ר׳ יוחנן בן נורי ורבנן. דנבלת עוף טהור בכרכים לא בעיא מחשבה לשווייה אוכל, משום דאיכא רוב עם הבאים לשוק ואכלי נבלת עוף טהור. ובכפרים דליכא רוב עם, בעי מחשבה כדפרישנא בריש פרק קמא. כשנפל לגת ומת בכרכים, רבנן סברי אע״ג דבכרכים לא בעי מחשבה, היכא דנפל לגת מאסתו גתו ואינו ראוי ובעי מחשבה. ור׳ יוחנן בן נורי סבר לא מאסתו גתו והרי הוא כשאר נבלת עוף טהור דלא בעיא מחשבה בכרכים. ואין הלכה כר׳ יוחנן בן נורי:
חשב עליו חרש שוטה וקטן. להאכילו לנכרי:

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.
