拉夫 的道理原是防人先种了畦、再去填四角而犯杂种之禁。何不照 罗什托尔 论?答曰:那一宽只管大田——形状分得清;小畦里种子挨得太近,分不出来。

倒不如说:拉夫 的道理是这样——那是一条防禁,恐怕人先把菜畦种上了,随后又去填那四角,因而犯了杂种之禁。
Rather, Rav’s reasoning must be: It is a decree lest one will fill the corners after having first planted the garden bed, and thereby violate the prohibition of diverse kinds.

革玛拉 问:那又有什么妨碍呢?那菜畦的断例,不过照 罗什托尔——一块尖角的菜地——论就是了。
The Gemara asks: And why should that matter, the legal status of the garden bed should merely be like a triangular [rosh tor] plot of vegetables.
-
我们在一条密释纳里岂不是学过:一块尖角的菜地伸进另一块田里去的,是可以的;那里不算作杂种之禁所禁的相混,因为那田的尽头是分得清的。
Didn’t we learn in a mishna: If a triangular plot of vegetables was protruding into another field, it is permitted; there, it is not considered a prohibited mixture of diverse kinds, because the end of the field is distinguishable.
-
两块地相交之处,凭着各自的形状,界限本是清楚的。
Based on the shapes of the two fields where they intersect, the demarcation between them is clear.
-
革玛拉 答:论菜畦,并没有 罗什托尔 这一层宽容。
And the Gemara answers: There is no leniency with regard to a triangular plot in a garden bed.
-
一块田的尖角伸进另一块田里所以许,单指大田而言——那尖角的形状显然属于别的一块田;至于小小的菜畦,种子彼此挨着,是分不出来的。
This allowance with regard to a triangular section of one field jutting into another field applies only to a large field where the triangular shape can clearly be attributed to a different field, but in a small garden bed where the seeds are adjacent to one another, it is impossible to distinguish between the seeds.
