ועיגול של דבילה כו': חשבון מאי עבידתיה מהפקירא קזכו אמר רב חסדא מדת חסידות שנו כאן אמר רבא חסידי אגרא דשבתא שקלי אלא אמר רבא הכא בירא שמים עסקינן ולא ניחא ליה דליתהני מאחרים ובחנם נמי לא ניחא ליה דליטרח והכי קאמר ואם היו פיקחין דידעי דכה"ג לאו שכר שבת הוא עושין עמו חשבון לאחר השבת:

R. Huna the son of R. Joshua asked: What if one spreads out his garments, collects and places [therein], collects and places [therein]?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' More than three meals. ');">¹⁹</span> Is it like one who comes to save,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The whole simultaneously, since it is all to be carried out together. ');">²⁰</span> or like one who comes to collect? — [Come and hear]:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. ');">²¹</span> Since Raba said, R. Shizbi misled R. Hisda by teaching, 'Provided that he does not procure a vessel which holds more than three meals', it follows that it is like one who comes to save,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For Raba evidently holds that one may bring a vessel and collect more than for three meals — the reference is to the Baraitha supra 117b: 'if one's barrel burst on the top of his roof' etc. ');">²²</span>
