He cannot, however, impose any restrictions upon an Israelite if the latter and he are the only tenants. The reason is explained in the Gemara infra. rnt');"><sup>47</sup></span> R'GAMALIEL<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' On the identity of the bearer of this name v. Tosaf. s.v. a.l.');"><sup>48</sup></span> RELATED: A SADDUCEE ONCE LIVED WITH US IN THE SAME ALLEY IN JERUSALEM AND FATHER TOLD US:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' On a certain occasion when the Sadducee renounced his right to his share in the alley.');"><sup>49</sup></span> 'HASTEN AND CARRY OUT<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Just before the Sabbath begins.');"><sup>50</sup></span> ALL NECESSARY ARTICLES INTO THE ALLEY<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' In order to acquire by that act the Sadducee's share.');"><sup>51</sup></span> BEFORE HE CARRIES OUT HIS<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' And thereby acquires again the right he at first renounced.');"><sup>52</sup></span> AND THEREBY IMPOSES RESTRICTIONS UPON YOU'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' A Sadducee, according to this view, is not regarded as a heathen, whose right in a courtyard or an alley must be rented, but as a heretic Israelite who may renounce his right by a mere declaration, no renting of it being necessary. Since the Sadducee in question had received no rent it was within his power to withdraw his concession at any moment provided the other tenants had not acquired possession of the alley by carrying their articles into it. Hence the instruction to HASTEN the acquisition BEFORE the Sadducee had time to change his mind.');"><sup>53</sup></span> R'JUDAH RELATED, [THE INSTRUCTION<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Just quoted by R.

Judah, a Sadducee who renounced his right to his share without receiving any payment for it may withdraw his concession at any time even after the other tenants had, by the performance of some act, acquired possession of his share. As he might change his mind at any moment the other tenants (cf. prev. n.) had to carry out all they needed prior to the commencement of the Sabbath.');"><sup>58</sup></span>
