Beast or Man on the Mountain and the Laws Learned From Shabbat

Both ox and every kind of animal are alike regarding the separation at Mount Sinai, as it is said, "whether beast or man, it shall not live" - and a wild animal is included in "beast." "Whether" - to include the birds. And likewise for falling into a pit, for the double payment, for the return of a lost object, for unloading a burden, for muzzling, and for forbidden mixtures, and likewise a wild animal and a bird are treated like them. If so, why is it said "an ox or a donkey"? Rather, Scripture spoke of the common case. For falling into a pit, "he shall restore money unto the owner thereof" (Exodus 21:34) - whatever has owners. For the double payment, "for every matter of trespass" (Exodus 22:8) - any matter of negligence. For the return of a lost object, "with all lost things of your brother's." For unloading, one derives "donkey, donkey" from the Sabbath. For muzzling, one derives "ox, ox" from the Sabbath. For forbidden mixtures of mating, one derives "your beast, your beast" from the Sabbath. And as for the Sabbath, whence do we know it? For it was taught, Rabbi Yose says in the name of Rabbi [Ishmael]: "and all your cattle" (Deuteronomy 5:14) is an amplification. And wherever "all" is written it is an amplification. But behold, regarding the tithe "all" is written, and we expound it as a general statement and a particular - for it was taught, "and you shall bestow the money for whatsoever your soul desires" (Deuteronomy 14:26) is a general statement, and so on. He said: "for whatsoever" is a general statement, "all" is an amplification; and if you say "all" is also a general statement, nevertheless this "all" here is an amplification, since it should have written "and your cattle" as it wrote in the first Commandments, and it wrote "all your cattle" - learn from this that it is an amplification. And now that you say "all" is an amplification, why do I need "your cattle" of the first Commandments and "your ox and your donkey" of the latter Commandments? You say: "ox" to teach the "ox, ox" of muzzling, "donkey" to teach the "donkey, donkey" of unloading, "your cattle" to teach the "your cattle, your cattle" of forbidden mixtures. If so, even a man should be forbidden - why then did we learn that a man is permitted in all of them, to plow and to draw? Scripture says, "that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you" (Deuteronomy 5:14) - I likened them with regard to rest and not for any other matter. "Whether beast or man" - I have only beast; whence a wild animal? Scripture says "whether beast, whether man." "Man" - I have only a man; whence a woman? Scripture says "whether man," "it shall not live." Rabbi Akiva says: it is said here "it shall not live" and it is said elsewhere "you shall not suffer a witch to live" (Exodus 22:17) - just as here it is by stoning, so there it is by stoning. "When the ram's horn sounds long" - when the ram's horn draws out its sound, all are permitted to go up the mountain. Rabbi Yose says: it is not a person's place that honors him, but a person honors his place. From here they said: as long as the Divine Presence rests on the mountain, "whosoever touches the mount shall surely be put to death"; once the Divine Presence has departed, all are permitted to go up the mountain.
