הא מני בשלמא לרבה רישא ר' ישמעאל וסיפא ר"ע

An objection was [again] raised: 'If a man digs a pit in private ground and opens it on to a public place he becomes liable, but if he digs it in private ground abutting on a public thoroughfare he would not be liable.' No difficulty arises if we follow Rabbah, since the whole text<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. p. 286, n. 5. ');">¹⁹</span> is in accordance with R. Ishmael. But if we follow R. Joseph, no difficulty, it is true, arises in the prior clause<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Stating liability in the case of Pit on public ground. ');">²⁰</span>
