Yerushalmi Bava Metzia 4:7 ירושלמי בבא מציעא ד׳:ז׳

MISHNAH: Just as there is cheating in trade so there is cheating by words. One should not say to another: how much for this object, if he is not interested in buying. If somebody was a repentant sinner, one should not say to him: remember your earlier deeds. If somebody was the son of a proselyte, one may not say to him: remember the deeds of your forefathers, for it is written¹³³Ex. 22:20; Mekhilta dR. Ismael Neziqin 18, Mekhilta dR. Simeon ben Ioḥai p. 210.: “A sojourner you may neither cheat nor oppress, for you were sojourners in the Land of Egypt.”
One¹³⁴The farmer. does not mix produce, not even new with new; no need to say new with old. In truth¹³⁵“In truth” characterizes undisputed practice. they permitted to mix strong wine with weak since it improves it. One¹³⁶The winery. does not mix wine lees with wine but one delivers the lees with the wine. If water became mixed with somebody’s wine, he should not sell it in the store unless he declares it, and not to a trader for that one would only use it to trick people; at a place where they usually put water into the wine they may do so.
The trader may buy from five threshing floors and put into one chest, wine from five wine presses and put into one barrel¹³⁷Greek πίθος., on condition that he not intend to mix¹³⁸He may only pour wines of the same kind into one barrel.. Rebbi Jehudah says, a store owner should not distribute roasted kernels and nuts to children because he induces them to come to him, but the Sages permit. He should not reduce the price, but the Sages say, may he be remembered as a benefactor¹³⁹The Sages oppose restrictions which hinder competition.. He should not clean the groats following Abba Shaul, but the Sages permit it. However, they agree that he may not clean the upper layer of the chest¹⁴⁰A store may not dress up the upper layer of merchandise, which is seen by the buyer, and then sell lesser quality from below. This is cheating. since that gives a dishonest impression. One may not put makeup on humans¹⁴¹Slaves one offers for sale., animals, or vessels.

HALAKHAH: “Just as there is cheating in trade,” etc. “One may not put on make-up.” Rebbi Eudaimon the salt dealer was mollifying his spread¹⁴²The translation of this sentence is tentative and is based on the meaning of the corresponding words فتر، سرد in Arabic. R. Eliahu Fulda (followed by Levy and Kohut) explains that he washed his sieve in soap to produce better looking salt grains. R. M. Margalit explains without any lexical justification that he washed pieces of meat to make them look better. Jastrow translated: R. Eudaimon the sailor mollified his sails. But sails are not edible and they are not made from loose tissue with lots of holes, سرد.. Jacob bar Aḥa said to him, did we not state: “one may not put on make up”? His word implies that there is make-up on food. Rebbi Ze‘ira was working with flax. He went to Rebbi Abbahu and asked him, may I make my work look good? He told him, go and apply all you know. Rebbi Abbahu was working on those shawls¹⁴³Yerushalmi Šabbat 4, 8b l. 69 translates רדדים (Is. 3:23) by לסוטות.. He came to ask Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina, how am I with those shawls? He told him, go and apply all you know. Rebbi Abba painted a bathtub. Rebbi Jacob from Emmaus stated: What means: “one may not put on make up”? One may not say to him¹⁴¹Slaves one offers for sale., paint yourself.
