One who says 'Tavi my slave - I made him free', or 'I make him free' or 'he is free', he acquired.

(R. Inya citing R. Yochanan): This is only if [he wrote this] in a document [and gave it to him].

[If he said] 'he will become free', Rebbi says that he acquired, and Chachamim say that he did not acquire.

[If he said] 'give this Get Shichrur to my slave', and he died, Rebbi says, he did not acquire. Chachamim say, he acquired, [i.e.] we force the heirs to fulfill the words of the Mes.

(R. Ze'ira): [In the latter case] they argue about Stam.

Question: What is the case?

If he says 'free him', even Rebbi agrees [that we force the heirs to fulfill the words of the Mes, for he wanted them to free him]!

If he says 'write and give', even Rabanan agree [that we do not force them, for he intended to free him himself]!

Answer: Rather, the case is, he says 'give.' Rebbi says, one who says 'give' is like one who says 'write and give.' Rabanan says, one who says 'give' is like one who says 'free him.'

One who says that they should give all his property to Ploni, and he is a Kohen, and there were slaves - even if he said 'I do not want them', they eat Terumah;

R. Shimon ben Gamliel says, since he said 'I do not want them', the [giver's] heirs acquired them.

(R. Ze'ira): They argue about Stam.

Question: What is the case?

If he initially accepted, even R. Shimon ben Gamliel agrees!

If he did not initially accept, even Rabanan agree!

Answer: Rather, the case is Stam. Rebbi says, a person does not say 'I do not want' unless he initially accepted. R. Shimon ben Gamliel says, since he said 'I do not want them', the end proves about the beginning [that he never wanted them].
