Mishnah 1א׳

הָעוֹשֶׂה שְׁלֹשָׁה פִטְפּוּטִים בָּאָרֶץ וְחִבְּרָן בְּטִיט לִהְיוֹת שׁוֹפֵת עֲלֵיהֶן אֶת הַקְּדֵרָה, טְמֵאָה. קָבַע שְׁלֹשָׁה מַסְמְרִין בָּאָרֶץ לִהְיוֹת שׁוֹפֵת עֲלֵיהֶן הַקְּדֵרָה, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁעָשָׂה בְרֹאשׁוֹ מָקוֹם שֶׁתְּהֵא הַקְּדֵרָה יוֹשֶׁבֶת, טְהוֹרָה. הָעוֹשֶׂה שְׁתֵּי אֲבָנִים כִּירָה וְחִבְּרָם בְּטִיט, טְמֵאָה. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה מְטַהֵר, עַד שֶׁיַּעֲשֶׂה שְׁלִישִׁית, אוֹ עַד שֶׁיִּסְמֹךְ לַכֹּתֶל. אַחַת בְּטִיט וְאַחַת שֶׁלֹּא בְטִיט, טְהוֹרָה:

One who puts three props into the ground and joins them [to the ground] with clay so that he can set a pot on them, [the structure] is susceptible to impurity. If he set three nails in the ground so that he could set a pot on them, even though he made a place on the top for the pot to rest, [the structure] is not susceptible to impurity. One who makes a stove of two stones, and joins them [to the ground] with clay, it is susceptible to impurity. Rabbi Yehudah says it is not susceptible to impurity unless he makes a third stone or he places it against a wall. If one stone [was joined] with clay and the other was not joined with clay, it is not susceptible to impurity.

Mishnah 2ב׳

הָאֶבֶן שֶׁהָיָה שׁוֹפֵת עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הַתַּנּוּר, עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הַכִּירָה, עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הַכֻּפָּח, טְמֵאָה. עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הָאֶבֶן, עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הַסֶּלַע, עָלֶיהָ וְעַל הַכֹּתֶל, טְהוֹרָה. וְזוֹ הָיְתָה כִּירַת הַנְּזִירִים שֶׁבִּירוּשָׁלַיִם, שֶׁכְּנֶגֶד הַסָּלַע. כִּירַת הַטַּבָּחִים, בִּזְמַן שֶׁהוּא נוֹתֵן אֶבֶן בְּצַד אֶבֶן, נִטְמֵאת אַחַת מֵהֶן, לֹא נִטְמְאוּ כֻלָּן:

A stone on which he placed [a pot] on it and on an oven, or on it and on a double stove, or on it and on a stove, is susceptible to impurity. [If he set the pot] on it and on another stone, on it and on a rock, or on it and on a wall, it is not susceptible to impurity. And such was the stove of the Nazirites in Jerusalem which was set up against a rock. The stove of the butchers: when the stones are placed side by side, if one of the stoves contracted impurity, the others do not become impure.
