Talmud for Parah 11:3

דְּבֵלָה שֶׁל תְּרוּמָה שֶׁנָּפְלָה לְתוֹךְ מֵי חַטָּאת וּנְטָלָהּ וַאֲכָלָהּ, אִם יֶשׁ בָּהּ כַּבֵּיצָה, בֵּין טְמֵאָה בֵּין טְהוֹרָה, הַמַּיִם טְמֵאִין, וְהָאוֹכְלָהּ חַיָּב מִיתָה. אֵין בָּהּ כַּבֵּיצָה, הַמַּיִם טְהוֹרִין, וְהָאוֹכְלָהּ חַיָּב מִיתָה. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, בִּטְהוֹרָה, הַמַּיִם טְהוֹרִים. הַטָּהוֹר לְחַטָּאת שֶׁהִכְנִיס רֹאשׁוֹ וְרֻבּוֹ לְתוֹךְ מֵי חַטָּאת, נִטְמָא:

If a fig cake of <i>trumah</i> fell into the <i>chatat</i> waters, and one took it and ate it, if it [the amount be ate] contained [a volume] equivalent to an egg, [regardless of] whether it was pure or impure, the waters are impure and the eater is liable for the death penalty. If it did not contain [a volume] equivalent an egg, the waters are pure and the eater is liable for the death penalty. Rabbi Yose says: If it was pure, the waters are pure. One who is pure for <i>chatat</i>, if he stuck his head and the majority of his body into <i>chatat</i> waters, he is made impure.
