MISHNAH: He who sells a village sold houses, cisterns, ditches and caverns, bath houses and dovecots, the oil press and irrigated lots but not movables. But if he said to him, it and all that is in it, even if there were animals and slaves there, all of them are sold. Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel says, he who sells a village sold the steward.

HALAKHAH: “He who sells a village,” etc. It was stated: “He who sells a village. Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel says, he who sells a village sold the steward but did not sell the administrator. But if he said to him, ‘it and all it contains’? Even if he said to him, ‘it and all it contains’. In neither case did he sell ŝirah and its dependencies, and hard rocks hewn from it, and preserves of wild animals, birds, and fish.” Ŝirah means outlying houses, dependencies are hamlets. Its part in ocean or river, there are Tannaїm who state, it is sold, and there are Tannaїm who state, it is not sold. Rav Ḥisda said, he who says, it is sold, as long as it is within its domain; he who says, it is not sold, if it is not within its domain.
