Jerusalem Talmud Shabbat 16:4

משנה: מַצִּילִין סַל מָלֵא כִכָּרוֹת אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁיֶּשׁ בּוֹ מֵאָה סְעוֹדּוֹת וְעִיגּוּל שֶׁל דְּבֵילָה וְחָבִית שֶׁל יַיִן וְאוֹמֵר לַאֲחֵרִים בּוֹאוּ וְהַצִּילוּ לָכֶם. אִם הָיוּ פִקְחִין עוֹשִׂין עִמּוֹ חֶשְׁבּוֹן לְאַחַר שַבָּת. וּלְאֵיכָן מַצִּילִין אוֹתָן לֶחָצֵר הַמְעוֹרֶבֶת. בֶּן בְּתֵירָה אוֹמֵר אַף לְשֶׁאֵינָהּ מְעוֹרֶבֶת: MISHNAH: One saves a bag full of loaves even if it contains food for a hundred meals, and loaves of dried figs, and wine amphoras⁸Again, since speed is of the essence, one may move packages of food irrespective of their size., and one says to others, come and save for yourselves⁹Even though he really wants the neighbors to help him save his property, he must invite them to save for themselves.. If they are intelligent¹⁰If they understand that the fire victim really did not want to donate his food to them, they either may in return give back the food to him or pay him something for the food which they took. they settle accounts with him after the Sabbath. Where does one save to? To a courtyard with an eruv¹¹Since the neighbors are not threatened by the fire and are saving for themselves, they may take the things only to places in which they are authorized to carry.. Ben Bathyra says, even if there is no eruv¹²He requires only that the place be potentially one where the neighbors could carry; but in this case he excludes the dead-end street into which the common courtyard opens..

הלכה: מַתְנִיתִין דְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי דְאָמַר. לְעוֹלָם מַצִּילִין מְזוֹן שָׁלשׁ סְעוּדּוֹת: מִכֵּיוָן שֶׁכּוּלָּהּ גּוּף אֶחָד כְּמִי שֶׁכּוּלָּהּ סְעוּדָה אַחַת. HALAKHAH: ¹⁰¹Discussion of Mishnah 4. Since an entire sack full of food can be saved, it should be forbidden even for R. Yose. Does the Mishnah follow Rebbi Yose who said, “one always saves food for three meals”? Since all is one body, all of it counts as one meal.

וְאוֹמֵר לַאֲחֵרִים בּוֹאוּ וְהַצִּילוּ לָכֶם. שֶׁכֵּן דַּרְכָּן לְהַזְמִין אוֹרְחִין בַּשַּׁבָּת. “One says to others, come and save for yourselves⁹Even though he really wants the neighbors to help him save his property, he must invite them to save for themselves.,” since ordinarily one invites guests for the Sabbath¹⁰²If the guests had been invited before the start of the fire it is obvious that their part of the food could be saved. Since it is possible to invite guests on Sabbath proper, even the Tanna who holds that one does not plan to circumvent the law will agree that they can be invited now..

אִם הָיוּ פִקְחִין עוֹשִׂין עִמּוֹ חֶשְׁבּוֹן לְאַחַר הַשַּׁבָּת. תַּמָּן תַּנִּינָן. מַנִּיחַ טַלִּיתוֹ אֶצְלוֹ וְעוֹשֶׂה עִמּוֹ חֶשְׁבּוֹן לְאַחַר שַׁבָּת. תַּמָּן אַתָּ אָמַר. מַשְׁכּוֹנֵיהּ גַּבֵּיהּ. הָכָא מַאי אִית לָךְ. אָמַר רִבִּי אַבָּא מָארִי. לְכָךְ שָׁנִינוּ. נִקְרָא פִיקֵּחַ. “If they are intelligent¹⁰If they understand that the fire victim really did not want to donate his food to them, they either may in return give back the food to him or pay him something for the food which they took. they settle accounts with him after the Sabbath..” There we have stated¹⁰³Mishnah 23:1, speaking of a person who borrows from another on the Sabbath when he has no credit with the lender., “he leaves his toga with him and settles his account after the Sabbath.” There you say, he has his pledge with him; here what do you have? Rebbi Abba Mari said, because of this we taught, “if they were intelligent”¹⁰⁴Since the original owner only has a moral, not a legal claim to the food which was taken by others..
