Mishnah, Makhshirin, 3.1

שַׂק שֶׁהוּא מָלֵא פֵרוֹת וּנְתָנוֹ עַל גַּב הַנָּהָר, אוֹ עַל פִּי הַבּוֹר, אוֹ עַל מַעֲלוֹת הַמְּעָרָה, וְשָׁאֲבוּ, כֹּל שֶׁשָּׁאֲבוּ, בְּכִי יֻתַּן. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, כֹּל שֶׁהוּא כְנֶגֶד הַמַּיִם, בְּכִי יֻתַּן. וְכֹל שֶׁאֵינוֹ כְנֶגֶד הַמַּיִם, אֵינוֹ בְּכִי יֻתַּן: If a sack full of produce was put by the side of a river or by the side of the mouth of a cistern or on the steps of a cavern, and [the produce] absorbed water, all [the produce] which absorbed the water comes under the law of ‘if water be put’. Rabbi Judah says: all [the produce] which faced the water comes under the law of ‘if water be put’, but all [the produce] which did not face the water does not come under the law of ‘if water be put’.
