Talmud for Terumot 1:5

אֵין תּוֹרְמִין מִן הַלֶּקֶט, וּמִן הַשִּׁכְחָה, וּמִן הַפֵּאָה, וּמִן הַהֶפְקֵר, וְלֹא מִמַּעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן שֶׁנִּטְּלָה תְּרוּמָתוֹ, וְלֹא מִמַּעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי וְהֶקְדֵּשׁ שֶׁנִּפְדּוּ, וְלֹא מִן הַחַיָּב עַל הַפָּטוּר, וְלֹא מִן הַפָּטוּר עַל הַחַיָּב, וְלֹא מִן הַתָּלוּשׁ עַל הַמְחֻבָּר, וְלֹא מִן הַמְחֻבָּר עַל הַתָּלוּשׁ, וְלֹא מִן הֶחָדָשׁ עַל הַיָּשָׁן, וְלֹא מִן הַיָּשָׁן עַל הֶחָדָשׁ, וְלֹא מִפֵּרוֹת הָאָרֶץ עַל פֵּרוֹת חוּצָה לָאָרֶץ, וְלֹא מִפֵּרוֹת חוּצָה לָאָרֶץ עַל פֵּרוֹת הָאָרֶץ. וְאִם תָּרְמוּ, אֵין תְּרוּמָתָן תְּרוּמָה:

One may not set aside Terumah from the Leket [fallen gleanings given to the poor], or from the Shikhecha [forgotten sheaves given to the poor], or from the Pe'ah [corner of the field that must be given to the poor], or from the Hefker [ownerless], and not from the first tithe whose Terumah has already been taken, or from Ma'aser Sheni [second tithe, which must be eaten in Jerusalem] or Hekdesh [consecrated donation] that has been redeemed, and not from that which is obligated [in Terumah] for that which is not obligated, and not from that which is not obligated to that which is obligated, and not from the picked to the unpicked, and not from the unpicked to the picked, and not from the Chadash [grain from the current year that one is forbidden to eat] for the Yashan [grain from the previous year that one is permitted to eat], and not from the Yashan for the Chadash, and not from the fruits of the Land [of Israel] for fruits from outside the Land, and not from fruits outside the Land for fruits of the Land. And if one did set aside Terumah [from these types of produce], one's Terumah is not [valid] Terumah.

Jerusalem Talmud Orlah

It was stated in the name of Rebbi Simeon: The only kinds admitting an intention of exemption are three: [buckthorn]⁷Reading with R. S. Cirillo רימין for רימון, defined by Maimonides (Demay 1:1) by Arabic נַבק “buckthorn, lotus fruit.” Pomegranate trees (רימון) have valuable fruits and are not planted for their wood. Cf. Demay 1, Note 4., sycamore, and caper bush. Are these obligated for tithes⁷Reading with R. S. Cirillo רימין for רימון, defined by Maimonides (Demay 1:1) by Arabic נַבק “buckthorn, lotus fruit.” Pomegranate trees (רימון) have valuable fruits and are not planted for their wood. Cf. Demay 1, Note 4.? This is a dispute between Rebbi Abba bar Mamal and Rebbi Hila. They differed: If somebody kept his fruit trees for wood, Rebbi Abba bar Mamal said he is obligated, Rebbi Hila said he is exempted. Rebbi Abba bar Mamal said he is obligated, from the following⁹Ma‘serot 1:1, Note 20.: (Deut. 14:29) “The Levite shall come, because he has neither part nor inheritance with you.” You are obliged to give him from what you have but he has not¹⁰Since the fruits of the tree destined to be cut down as fire wood remain private property, they are subject to tithes. The next two sentences are irrelevant here; they are just copied from the source in Ma‘serot.. This excludes abandoned property for which your and his hands are equal. Gleanings, forgotten sheaves, peah, and abandoned property are all equal.

Jerusalem Talmud Challah

MISHNAH: Two qabim and a qab of rice or²²Reading of the Rome ms. and the Constantinople print: או תרומה; this probably is a gloss. heave between them do not combine²³Two loaves made of bread flour each of which is too small to be subject to ḥallah are both touching an exempt dough (which is either from material intrinsically exempt or from flour exempt because of its status of sanctity) cannot become obligated since the exempt dough acts as a barrier as if it were of iron. But a dough which is not exempt cannot separate, even if it now is no longer subject to ḥallah.. If a thing of which ḥallah was taken is between them, they do combine since already they are subject to ḥallah.
If a qab of new grain and one of old bit one another³⁸While two doughts together are obligated for ḥallah as noted in the previous Halakhah, it is forbidden to give heave from one year’s harvest for another year’s (Mishnah Terumot 1:5). Everybody agrees that ḥallah must be given from both kinds of grain; the question is only how this has to be done., Rebbi Ismael says one should take from the middle but the Sages prohibit this. If somebody takes ḥallah from a single qab, Rebbi Aqiba declares it to be ḥallah but the Sages say, it is not ḥallah.
If ḥallah of two qabim was taken separately, when he then combinrd them together into one dough, Rebbi Aqiba exempts but the Sages obligate; it turns out that the severity³⁹Of R. Aqiba who treats ḥallah from less than the minimal volume as genuine ḥallah. becomes a leniency.

¹²¹Terumot 1, Note 159. Rebbi Joḥanan in the name of Rebbi Yannai: This is one of three well-explained verses in the Torah (Deut. 14:27): “The Levite shall come, for he has neither part nor inheritance with you.” You must give him from what you have but he has not. This excludes ownerless property where your and his hands are equal. There is no difference between gleanings, forgotten sheaves, peah¹²²All poor are entitled to these, irrespective of their tribal affiliation., and abandoned property.
