Peah 5:7 - 5:8

ולא שכחו בעל הבית – such as the case where the owner of the house is in the field and refers concerning him and he acquires it, but the owner of the house is in the city, it is considered forgetting, even though the owner of the house did not forget it.

לכובעות – to make of them a kind of hat at the top, for such they were accustomed to making wreaths of ears of corn and to put them on the head.

לכומסאות – they are not tall nor project above like hats, but are bent below so that they would be seen so much, as it states (Deuteronomy 32:34): “Lo, I have it all put away [Sealed up in My storehouses].”

ולחררה – reaped a little bit and made a temporary stack in the field, in order to roll the dough to make a thick cake baked on coals. Another explanation: There are those who harvest the grain and make a pile in one place until they are collected, and then they carry them to the place where they thresh the grain, and the place of the threshing is called a granary. And what they make a pile of on the ground is called stack covers, like the image of a hat which they place on a head, and what they make a pile of in a ditch in the field is called sheaves put at the bottom of a stack as foundation , like the language of (Deuteronomy 32:34): “Lo, I have it all put away,” and what they make a pile in a round heap like the image of the stone of a millstone is called a temporary stack in the field, on account that the temporary sheaf is round.

ולעמרים – he made small sheaves and he will end up making from two or three one sheaf.

אין לו שכחה – that is to say, what he forgot in the field at the time that he brings in from one of these places is not “forgotten,” as it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “When you reap the harvest in your field and overlook a sheaf in the field, [do not turn back to get it;]...,” just as there is reaping that has no reaping after it, so too carrying sheaves home, which have no other sheaves, which excludes those which have sheaves heaped up afterwards.

ממנו ולגורן יש לו שכחה – A person who brings from one of these places to the granary and forgot one heap of sheaves from these places, is considered “forgotten.”

המעמר לגדיש – and wants that they should remain in one place and there he will thresh them, there is something forgotten.

ממנו ולגורן – if he had his mind upon them and afterwards brought them to another place to thresh them, he has nothing forgotten.
