MISHNAH: If an idol had a garden or a bath house, one may benefit from them not with a favor but one may not benefit with a favor. If it belongs to it and a third party one benefits whether with or without a favor.

HALAKHAH: “If an idol had a garden,” etc. So is the Mishnah: A favor to the priests or without a favor to the priests. “It is forbidden to sell fifes of idols, but if one pays the rental fee to the state if it is used to supply the needs of idol worship it is permitted to sell them. It is forbidden to rent a store from a pagan temple, but if one pays rent to the state even if it is used to supply the needs of idol worship it is permitted to rent it. It is forbidden to give to collectors for idol worship. If he pays a fee to the state even though he collects for idol worship it is permitted to give to him.” And the Mishnah said so, “if it belongs to it and a third party one benefits whether with or without a favor.”
