[There are] three matters that R' Elazar ben Azaryah permits and the Sages prohibit: (a) His cow would go out [into the public domain] with the strap which is between its horns, (b) and one may curry an animal with a metal comb on Yom Tov, (c) and one may grind peppercorns even in their mill [on Yom Tov]. R' Yehudah says: One may not curry an animal with a metal comb on Yom Tov, because he makes a wound [in the pro-cess]; however, [R' Yehudah agrees that] one may curry with a wooden comb. But the Sages say: One may curry neither with a metal comb nor even with a wooden comb.

These matters [of dispute] are from the leniencies of Beis Shammai and from the stringencies of Beis Hillel: An egg that was laid on Yom Tov, Beis Shammai say [that] it may be eaten, but Beis Hillel say [that] it may not be eaten. Beis Shammai say: Leaven the volume of an olive and chametz the volume of a date [are prohibited on Pesach]. But Beis Hillel say: [Both] this and that [are prohibited if they are the volume] of an olive.
