תלמוד על שבת 85:13

A Mishnah disagrees with him who said, anything which is specifically for something prohibited is prohibited, as we have stated¹⁷⁴Mishnah Šabbat 18:2. The moment the basket becomes part of the chicken coop it cannot be moved on the Sabbath.: “one turns a basket upside down in front of the chicks that they may climb up and down.” And it was stated about this, when they climbed on it by themselves it is forbidden to move it¹⁹²Babli 43a. The question really is directed against the opinion that vessels or tools become muqṣeh only if specifically selected for forbidden purposes. Here the selection is not made by the farmer but by his chicks. A different approach in the Babli, 43a.. Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya said before Rebbi Zeˋira, explain it if it is disgusting¹⁹³Following R. Jehudah, cf. Note 176.. He told him, did not Rebbi Hoshaia state, even a seah, even a three-qab¹⁹⁴Half a seah, about 6.4 liter.. Can you say that seah and three-qab are disgusting?
