צבי שנכנס. מאליו לבית ונעל אחד בפניו, זו היא צידתו:
נעלו שנים פטורים. דהוו להו שנים שעשאוה:
לא יכול אחד לנעול. אורחיה הוא לנועלו בשנים והרי לכל אחד מלאכה דבלאו איהו לא מתעבדה:

השני חייב – for he (i.e., the second person) hunted it (i.e., the animal).
הא למה זה דומה – after it was hunted by the first [person], to locking [the door of] the house to guard it, and not to hunt [it].
ונמצא צבי – hat was already hunted being guarded inside it, such is this, that even though the first person stood up, this is not other than as a guard of the deer that he had from yesterday and the second [person] is exempt [from liability for a sin-offering] as is stated in our Mishnah that he is exempt and permitted.
השני חייב. שהוא צד אותו:
הא למה זה דומה. מאחר שנצוד ע״י ראשון:
לנועל את ביתו לשמרו. ולא לצוד:
ונמצא צבי. שהוא נצוד כבר שמור בתוכו, כך זה אף על פי שעמד ראשון אין זה אלא כשומרו לצבי שהיה לו מאתמול. והשני פטור האמור במתניתין, פטור ומותר:

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.
