Mishnah שביעית י׳:ז׳ · Sheviis 10:7
כַּוֶּרֶת דְּבוֹרִים, רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, הֲרֵי הִיא כְקַרְקַע,
וְכוֹתְבִין עָלֶיהָ פְּרוֹזְבּוּל,
וְאֵינָהּ מְקַבֶּלֶת טֻמְאָה בִּמְקוֹמָהּ,
וְהָרוֹדֶה מִמֶּנָּה בְּשַׁבָּת חַיָּב.
וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, אֵינָהּ כְּקַרְקַע,
וְאֵין כּוֹתְבִין עָלֶיהָ פְּרוֹזְבּוּל,
וּמְקַבֶּלֶת טֻמְאָה בִּמְקוֹמָהּ,
וְהָרוֹדֶה מִמֶּנָּה בְּשַׁבָּת, פָּטוּר:
A beehive - Rabbi Eliezer says: it is like land,
and one may write a pruzbul on it,
and it does not become susceptible to impurity in its place,
and one who removes [honey] from it on Shabbos is liable.
But the Chachamim say: it is not like land,
and one may not write a pruzbul on it,
and it does become susceptible to impurity in its place,
and one who removes [honey] from it on Shabbos is exempt:

what does this mean?

A reading aid, not an exact translation.

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.

Transcript
A machine transcript of the recorded shiur.

This is the shiur as spoken, transcribed automatically and left unedited — the wording is Ephraim's, and occasional transcription errors remain. It follows the audio word by word.
