MISHNAH: Among trees, pears and golden apples, quince and sorbs are not kilaim one with the other. Apple and ḥizrar, peaches and almonds, jujubes and lotus fruit, even though they resemble one another, they are kilaim one with the other.

HALAKHAH: “Quince.” Rebbi Jonah said, quince. Why are they called “prepared”, because there is no tree only producing for the pot except that kind.

Salman the Levite, the brother of Zavdi the Levite, in the name of Rebbi Joshua ben Levi: All statements are pair by pair. Rav said, all are one kind. A baraitha disagrees with Rav, for we have stated: also the baka-bush. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun objected, did we not also state oregano?

“ They used to graft quince onto pears in the markets of Sepphoris. A student saw them and said to them, you are forbidden [to do so.] They went and cut them down. Then they went and asked at Jabneh. They said to them, the one who hit you was from the students of the House of Shammai.” It says only, quince on a pear tree. Hence, not a pear tree on a ḥizrar.

“ In the region of Ariaḥ they grafted apple on ḥizrar. A student came and told them, this is forbidden to you. They went, cut them down, and came to ask at Jabneh. They said to them, that student said correctly.” He said only, apple on ḥizrar. Hence, not about ḥizrar on pear? What the occasions were, they were.
