Mishnah 1א׳

הַקַּלָתוּת שֶׁל בַּעֲלֵי בָתִים שֶׁנִּפְחֲתָה פָחוֹת מִשְּׁלֹשָׁה טְפָחִים, טְמֵאָה, שֶׁהוּא מַסִּיק מִלְּמַטָּן וּקְדֵרָה בְשֵׁלָה מִלְמַעְלָן. יָתֵר מִכָּאן, טְהוֹרָה. נָתַן אֶבֶן אוֹ צְרוֹר, טְהוֹרָה. מֵרְחָהּ בְּטִיט, מְקַבֶּלֶת טֻמְאָה מִכָּאן וּלְהַבָּא. זוֹ הָיְתָה תְשׁוּבַת רַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְתַנּוּר שֶׁנְּתָנוֹ עַל פִּי הַבּוֹר אוֹ עַל פִּי הַדּוּת:

The fire-basket of a householder which was decreased in size to less than three tefachim is susceptible to impurity, because when it is heated from below a pot above would still boil. If [it was decreased in size] further, it is not susceptible to impurity. If [subsequently] a stone or gravel was put into it, it is still not susceptible to impurity. If it was plastered over with clay, it may contract impurity from that point onward. This was Rabbi Yehudah's reply regarding the oven that was placed over the mouth of a cistern or over that of a cellar.

Mishnah 2ב׳

דָּכוֹן שֶׁיֶּשׁ בּוֹ בֵית קִבּוּל קְדֵרוֹת, טָהוֹר מִשּׁוּם כִּירָה, וְטָמֵא מִשּׁוּם כְּלִי קִבּוּל. הַצְּדָדִין שֶׁלּוֹ, הַנּוֹגֵעַ בָּהֶם אֵינוֹ טָמֵא מִשּׁוּם כִּירָה. הָרַחַב שֶׁלּוֹ, רַבִּי מֵאִיר מְטַהֵר, וְרַבִּי יְהוּדָה מְטַמֵּא. וְכֵן הַכּוֹפֶה אֶת הַסַּל וְעוֹשֶׂה עַל גַּבָּיו כִּירָה:

A hob that has a receptacle for pots is not subject to impurity under the laws of a stove, but subject to impurity as a receptacle. Whatever touches its sides does not become impure under the laws of a stove. Its wide side: Rabbi Meir holds it to be pure, but Rabbi Yehudah holds it to be impure. The same law applies also when one turns over a basket and makes a stove upon it.

Mishnah 3ג׳

כִּירָה שֶׁנֶּחְלְקָה לְאָרְכָּהּ, טְהוֹרָה. וּלְרָחְבָּהּ, טְמֵאָה. כֻּפָּח שֶׁנֶּחְלַק בֵּין לְאָרְכּוֹ בֵּין לְרָחְבּוֹ, טָהוֹר. חֲצַר הַכִּירָה, בִּזְמַן שֶׁהִיא גְבוֹהָה שָׁלֹשׁ אֶצְבָּעוֹת, מִטַּמְּאָה בְמַגָּע וּבַאֲוִיר. פְּחוּתָה מִכָּאן, מִטַּמְּאָה בְמַגָּע וְאֵינָהּ מִטַּמְּאָה בַאֲוִיר. כֵּיצַד מְשַׁעֲרִין אוֹתָהּ. רַבִּי יִשְׁמָעֵאל אוֹמֵר, נוֹתֵן אֶת הַשַּׁפּוּד מִלְמַעְלָן לְמַטָּן וּכְנֶגְדּוֹ מִטַּמְּאָה בַאֲוִיר. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, נִטְמְאָה הַכִּירָה, נִטְמֵאת הֶחָצֵר. נִטְמְאָה הֶחָצֵר, לֹא נִטְמֵאת הַכִּירָה:

A double stove which was split into two parts along its length is not subject to impurity. [If it is split along] its breadth, it is subject to impurity. A one-pot stove which was split into two parts, by its length or by its width, is not susceptible to impurity. The extension around a stove, whenever it is three finger-breadths high, contracts impurity by contact and also through its air-space, but if it is less than this it contracts impurity through contact and not through its air-space. How do they determine the air-space ? Rabbi Yishmael says: He puts a spit from above to below and through that distance it contracts impurity through the air-space. Rabbi Eliezer ben Ya'acov says: If the stove contracted impurity, the extension is also impure, but if the extension becomes impure, the stove does not become impure.

Mishnah 4ד׳

הָיְתָה מֻפְרֶשֶׁת מִן הַכִּירָה, בִּזְמַן שֶׁהִיא גְבוֹהָה שָׁלֹשׁ אֶצְבָּעוֹת, מִטַּמָּא בְמַגָּע וּבַאֲוִיר. פְּחוּתָה מִכָּאן אוֹ שֶׁהָיְתָה חֲלָקָה, טְהוֹרָה. פִּטְפּוּטֵי כִירָה, שְׁלֹשָׁה, שֶׁל שָׁלֹשׁ אֶצְבָּעוֹת, מִטַּמְּאִים בְּמַגָּע וּבַאֲוִיר. פָּחוֹת מִכָּאן, כָּל שֶׁכֵּן הֵן טְמֵאִים, וַאֲפִלּוּ הֵן אַרְבָּעָה:

If it [the extension] was detached from the stove, if it is three finger-breadths high it contracts impurity by contact and through its air-space; if it was lower or if it was smooth, it is not subject to impurity. If the clay tripod of a stove is three finger-breadths high, it contracts impurity by contact and through its air-space. If it is lower, all the more so does it contract impurity, even if [its props] were four in number.
