ת"ש דא"ר יוחנן משום רבי ישמעאל בן יהוצדק מנין לאבידה ששטפה נהר שהיא מותרת דכתיב (דברים כב, ג) וכן תעשה לחמורו וכן תעשה לשמלתו וכן תעשה לכל אבידת אחיך אשר תאבד ממנו ומצאתה מי שאבודה הימנו ומצויה אצל כל אדם יצאתה זו שאבודה ממנו ואינה מצויה אצל כל אדם

b. Jehozadak: Whence [do we learn] that an article lost through the flooding of a river may be retained [by the finder]? It is written, <i>And so shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his garment; and so shalt thou do with every lost thing of thy brother's, which he hath lost, and thou hast found</i>.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Deut. XXII, 3. ');"><sup>9</sup></span> [which means to say that only] if the object has been lost to him and may be found by any person [has it to be returned to him, and it follows that] a case like this<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' When the flooded river has carried off a person's goods. ');"><sup>10</sup></span>
