Reference for Meilah 2:9

הַקֹּמֶץ, וְהַלְּבוֹנָה, וְהַקְּטֹרֶת, וּמְנָחוֹת כֹּהֲנִים, וּמִנְחַת כֹּהֵן מָשִׁיחַ, וּמִנְחַת נְסָכִין, מוֹעֲלִין בָּהֶן מִשֶּׁהֻקְדְּשׁוּ. קָדְשׁוּ בַכְּלִי, הֻכְשְׁרוּ לִפָּסֵל בִּטְבוּל יוֹם וּבִמְחֻסַּר כִּפּוּרִים וּבְלִינָה, וְחַיָּבִין עֲלֵיהֶן מִשּׁוּם נוֹתָר וּמִשּׁוּם טָמֵא, וּפִגּוּל אֵין בָּהֶן. זֶה הַכְּלָל, כֹּל שֶׁיֶּשׁ לוֹ מַתִּירִין, אֵין חַיָּבִין עָלָיו מִשּׁוּם פִּגּוּל, נוֹתָר וְטָמֵא, עַד שֶׁיִּקְרְבוּ מַתִּירָיו. וְכֹל שֶׁאֵין לוֹ מַתִּירִין, כֵּיוָן שֶׁקָּדַשׁ בַּכְּלִי, חַיָּבִין עָלָיו מִשּׁוּם נוֹתָר וּמִשּׁוּם טָמֵא, וּפִגּוּל אֵין בּוֹ:

The <i>kometz</i> [threefingerfull of a meal offering that was placed on the altar], the frankincense, the <i>ketoret</i> [incense], the meal offering of the priests, and the anointed priest [the high priest] or the libation meal offering are subject to <i>meilah</i> once they've been sanctified. Once they have been sanctified in a [service] vessel, they become susceptible to becoming ineligible [if touched] by a <i>tevul yom</i>, a <i>mechusar kippurim</i> and through <i>linah</i>, and one is liable for <i>notar</i> [leaving it past its appropriate time] or <i>tamei</i>, but they are not subject to <i>pigul</i>. This is the rule, anything [which is currently forbidden, but] whose prohibition will under certain conditions will eventually pass and become permissible, one is not liable for <i>pigul</i>, <i>notar</i> and <i>tamei</i> until that which renders it permissible occurs. Anything whose prohibition will not eventually pass and make it permissible, as soon as it was sanctified in a [service] vessel, one is liable for <i>notar</i> and<i> tamei</i>, but they are not subject to pigul.
