[א] "אשר אין להם חֹמה סביב", מה תלמוד לומר "ובתי החצרים"? אלא אף על פי שיש להם, רואין אותם כאילו אין להם. וכמה הם? 'בתים' – שנים. "החצרים" – שנים. – שתי חצרות של שני שני בתים. היו שלש של שני שני בתים – הרי אלו כבתי ערי חומה.
1) (Vayikra 25:31) ("And the houses of courtyards, which have no wall roundabout; with the field of the land shall it be reckoned. Redemption shall there be for it, and on the Yovel it shall go out.") "which have no wall roundabout": What is the intent of this? Why need it be written "And the houses of courtyards"? (i.e., Let it simply be stated "And houses which have no wall roundabout.") (To teach us) that even if they have a wall, they are perceived as if they do not. And how many are they? Two courtyards of two houses each. If there were three courtyards of two houses each (surrounded by a wall), they are regarded as houses of a walled city.
