Eine gefangene Frau [dh die Frau eines Cohein, die gefangen genommen wurde] isst Terumah [und wir fürchten nicht, dass der Nichtjude bei ihr lebte und sie zu einer Zona machte, der Terumah verboten ist.] Dies sind die Worte von R. Dossa. Und die Weisen sagen: Es gibt eine gefangene Frau, die isst, und eine gefangene Frau, die nicht isst. Wie? Eine Frau, die sagt: "Ich wurde gefangen genommen, aber ich bin sauber", isst. Denn "die Zunge, die verbietet" [dh ihr Sprichwort "Ich wurde gefangen genommen"] ist die Zunge, die es erlaubt [wenn sie sagt "aber ich bin sauber". ] Und wenn es Zeugen gab [dass sie gefangen genommen wurde] und sie sagt "Ich bin sauber", isst sie nicht.
Tosefta Demai
[A seller who] said "this is mine (i.e., from my fields)," they are liable to tithe. [A seller who said] "it is tithed," they are believed because the mouth that forbade is the [same] mouth that permitted (cf. Dem. 6:11). [Someone who] sold produce in a year [when one is obligated in the laws] of second tithe, and said, "[This produce has been separated from] second tithe," they are believed. [Someone who] sold produce in a year [when one is obligated in the laws] of the poor man's tithe, and said, "[This produce was separated from tithes during a year of] second tithe," they are not believed. [Someone who] sold produce in a year of second tithe and said, "[This produce was separated from tithes during a year of] poor man's tithe," they are believed, because the mouth that forbade is the [same] mouth that permitted.

Tosefta Kiddushin
A daughter of a male disqualified priest (halal) is disqualified from [marrying into] the priesthood forever. Rabbi (sic!, based on Ehrfurt manuscript) says: A daughter of a male convert is like the daughter of a male halal and disqualified from the priesthood. An isah is disqualified from the priesthood (see previous halakhah); if she [the isah] got married to a Yisrael, her daughter is fit [to marry into] the priesthood. A captive woman is disqualified from the priesthood; if she got married to a Yisrael, her daughter is fit for the priesthood. A freed handmaid is disqualified from the priesthood; if she is married to a Yisrael, her daughter is fit for the priesthood. It turns out that Yisrael is a mikveh for priests [since the daughter of a pesulah with a male Yisrael is no longer pesulah] and a handmaid is a mikveh for all disqualifications.
