Commentary for Menachot 27:1

אלא אי אמרת תרי גופי נינהו מי מיצטרפי

But if you say that they are regarded as two bodies [there], why are they combined [here]?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For if the two limbs which are derived from the one body are regarded as two entities so that the wrongful intention in respect of one will not affect the other, then the two loaves are a fortiori regarded as two entities and can by no means be combined in one merely by the form of intention expressed. Why then is it held that where the intention was in respect of an olive's bulk of the two loaves both are piggul?');">¹</span> The author of that [Baraitha] is Rabbi.
