וּמִנַּיִן שֶׁיִּקְדְּמוּ הַבִּכּוּרִים לַתְּרוּמָה, זֶה קָרוּי תְּרוּמָה וְרֵאשִׁית, וְזֶה קָרוּי תְּרוּמָה וְרֵאשִׁית, אֶלָּא יִקְדְּמוּ בִכּוּרִים, שֶׁהֵן בִּכּוּרִים לַכֹּל. וּתְרוּמָה לָרִאשׁוֹן, שֶׁהִיא רֵאשִׁית. וּמַעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן לַשֵּׁנִי, שֶׁיֶּשׁ בּוֹ רֵאשִׁית:
From where [do we derive] that [the setting aside of] <i>Bikurim</i> must precede <i>Terumah</i>, seeing that this one is called “<i>Terumah</i>” and “the first” and the other is [also] called “<i>Terumah</i>” and “the first”? Rather <i>Bikurim</i> take precedence since they are the first-fruits of all produce. And <i>Terumah</i> precedes <i>Ma'aser Rishon</i> because it is called “first.” And <i>Ma'aser Rishon</i> precedes <i>Ma'aser Sheni</i> because it includes that which is called “first” [<i>Terumat Ma'aser</i>].
