דכותה גבי כהן דיתיב אמסחתא אמאי צריך לרשום

But then in the case of the priest we must also suppose the same circumstances, that he sat by the stall; why then is it necessary to indicate [the partnership] by a sign? - Because people might say that he is only buying meat.

בשרא קא זבין

If you wish, however, I can say, a gentile [partner] usually makes himself heard.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The circumstances were, as suggested at first, that the gentile was sitting by the butcher's stall, and so too in the case of the priest. But there is this distinction: a gentile partner would not look on in silence but would interfere in the business done by his Jewish partner, protesting from time to time at the price his partner allows, so that it would be obvious to all that the gentile has a share in the business. This, however, is not the case with a priest who is a partner in the business.');"><sup>4</sup></span>

Now this means, does it not, that he is exempt from the cheeks but liable to give the others; likewise that he is exempt from the shoulder but liable to give the others; and so also that he is Exempt from the maw but liable to give the others? - No, it means, he is exempt from all the dues.
