מטבילין את הכל. שחייב אדם לטהר עצמו ברגל. וכל מה שצריך טבילה בין אדם בין כלים מטבילין מלפני השבת:
כלים מלפני השבת. שכיון שהם ראויין לאחר טבילה לדבר שלא היו ראויין לו קודם טבילה, אי מטביל להו בשבת וביו״ט הוה ליה מתקן מנא ואסור. ושבת דנקט הכא להודיעך כחן דבית הלל, דאפילו בשבת שרו להטביל אדם, משום דנראה כמיקר וכמצטנן ורוחץ לתענוג ולא לשם טבילה:
Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Beitzah Perek 2 Mishnah 3
ביצה פרק ב׳ משנה ג׳
Bartenura
ושוין שמשקין את המים בכלי אבן – whomever has fine water for drinking that became ritually impure, one fills from them a stone utensil that is not susceptible to receive ritual impurity and place them in a Mikveh of salty or turbid waters until the waters come into close contact with each other, resulting that these which were sown and connected to the waters of the Mikveh/ritual bath were cancelled out on account of this and made ritually pure, but the purification in the Mikveh is not for any foodstuffs and liquids but only for water alone, and not for the law of ritual immersion, but for the law of sowing.
אבל לא מטבילין – we don’t put them (i.e., the waters) in a ritually impure wooden utensil that requires ritual immersion for the vessel, to cause contact [by dipping a vessel, filled with unclean liquid, so as to make its surface level with the surface of the water into which it is dipped, which is a ceremony of levital purification], in order to raise the ritual immersion to the utensil along with the contact with the water.
ומטבילין מגב לגב – a person who immersed utensils with the intention that he would tread olives upon them in the building containing the tank [and all the implements] for the pressing of common (i.e., non-holy) olives, and he reconsidered to press in them grapes in the vat for wine pressing of Terumah, he mus immerse them a second time for the purpose of Terumah. And similarly, if he had immersed utensils for the sake of Terumah and reconsidered to make them holy, he requires a second ritual immersion for the sake of making it holy. And that ritual immersion can be done on the Festival day/Yom Tov, for there is no repair of the utensil for this ritual immersion is not for elevating them from ritual defilement, but rather for an additional purity.
ומחבורה לחבורה – if he immersed utensils in order to eat his Passover offering with one association/group and he reconsidered to be reckoned with another association and he came to ritually immerse his utensils a second time, this ritual immersion is permitted to be done on Yom Tov/the Festival day.
ושוין שמשיקין את המים בכלי אבן. מי שיש לו מים יפים לשתות ונטמאו, ממלא מהן כלי אבן שאינו מקבל טומאה ונותנן במקוה מים מלוחים או עכורים עד שנושקים מים למים, נמצאו אלו זרועים ומחוברים למי מקוה ובטלו אגבייהו וטהרו. ואין טהרה במקוה לשום אוכל ומשקה אלא למים בלבד, ולא בתורת טבילה אלא בתורת זריעה:
אבל לא מטבילין. שאין נותנין אותן בכלי עץ טמא שצריך טבילה לכלי, להשיק בו, כדי לעלות טבילה לכלי אגב השקת מים:
ומטבילין מגב לגב. מי שהטביל כלים לדעת שידרוך בהן זיתים בבית הבד לשמן של חולין, ונמלך לדרוך בהן ענבים בגת ליין של תרומה, צריך להטבילן פעם שניה לשם תרומה. וכן אם הטביל כלים לשם תרומה ונמלך לעשות בהם קודש, צריכים טבילה שניה לשם קודש. ואותה טבילה יכול להטביל ביו״ט, שאין כאן תקון כלי לפי שאין טבילה זו להעלות אותן מידי טומאה אלא לתוספת טהרה:
ומחבורה לחבורה. אם הטביל כלים על מנת לאכול פסחו עם חבורה זו ונמלך להימנות עם חבורה אחרת ובא להטביל כליו פעם שניה, אותה טבילה מותר לעשותה ביו״ט:

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.

מטבילין את הכל – for a person is obligated to ritually purify himself on the Festival. And everything that requires ritual immersion, whether a person or utensils, we ritually immerse prior to the Sabbath.
כלים מלפני השבת – for since they are worthy after ritual immersion for things that they were not worthy for prior to the immersion, if one immerses them on Shabbat or on Yom Tov/the Festival day, it would be like repairing a matter an that is forbidden. And Shabbat was used here to inform you of the power of the School of Hillel, that even on the Sabbath, they permitted the ritual immersion of a person, because it appears like holding him dear and become cols cold and bathes for pleasure and not for the sake of ritual immersion.
