Maaser Sheni 3:6 - 3:7

שנגמרה מלאכתן – for tithing, as is taught in the first chapter of [Tractate] Maaserot (Mishnah 5): “When is their harvesting time to make them liable for tithing?”

ועברו בתוך ירושלים – while they were still forbidden eatables, pending the separation of Levitical and priestly gifts (טבל).

יחזור מעשר שני שלהן – he should return their Second Tithes, for he holds that gifts that were not separated as offering (i.e., to be consecrated), are also like those which were consecrated, the sacred precincts [of Jerusalem] have retained it (and it cannot be redeemed and taken out of Jerusalem again – see Makkot 19b) for Second Tithe.

ושלא נגמרה מלאכתן – such as baskets of grapes for the vat for wine pressing, etc., but baskets of grapes for eating, have been completely harvested.

למוקצה – a place where we spread the dates out to dry which is called the storage of fruits/מוקצה.

רבי שמעון בן יהודה אומר וכו' – He thinks that according to the School of Hillel, gifts that were not separated as offering (i.e., to be consecrated) are not like similar to those which were consecrated; alternatively, even if they were similar to those consecrated, these words refer to [the matter] of the remainder of things, but since the matter of the sacred precincts [of Jerusalem] retaining them is Rabbinic, the School of Hillel is liberal. But the Halakha is according to Rabbi Shimon ben Yehuda, for the Schools of Shammai and Hillel did not disagree other than on fruit which had not completely harvested, according to the words of the First Tanna/teacher of the Mishnah.

והדמאי – eatables forbidden pending the separation of sacred gifts that had been doubtfully tithed.

נכנס – to Jerusalem

ויוצא ונפדה – outside of Jerusalem after it had left, and one is not required to return it [to Jerusalem]. And this concluding segment of the Mishnah, according to the first teacher [of the Mishnah] is necdssary and is according to the School of Hillel.

בפנים – from the wall [towards the inside]

ונוטה לחץ – towards the wall of Jerusalem

מכנגד החומה ולפנים כלפנים – for between the branches of the tree or the root of the tree which is against the wall and inside is considered like it is inside [the wall] and we eat there the Second Tithe and do not redeem it; and between the branches of the tree and the root which is against the wall and outside is considered as outside, and we redeem there the Second Tithe and do not eat it. And this is what is taught in the third chapter of Ma’aserot (Mishnah 10) and in Jerusalem, everything follows after the branches, that is to say, even after the branch.

בתי הבדים – [in the building containing the tank and all implements for pressing olives] which stores in them oil, and they would regularly make these buildings in the walls of the capital.

שפתחיהן לפנים – [inside] from the walls of Jerusalem and those are outside the walls of Jerusalem

מכנגד החומה ולפנים כלפנים – and we eat there the Second Tithe and the lesser holy things, and we don’t redeem Second Tithe there.

מכנגד החומה ולחוץ כלחוץ – and we do not eat Second Tithe and holy things there, but we redeem Second Tithe there.
