Tosefta על תרומות 11:3

Tosefta Demai

Rabbi Yosei ben HaMeshullam testified in the name of Rabbi Natan his brother in the name Rabbi Elazar Hisma, that we [chaverim] do not make Tahorot (i.e., foods requiring a state of ritual purity) for an am ha'aretz (i.e., a Jew who is not scrupulous in his observance, including the laws of purity and tithing). [In addition], do not make him ritually pure Terumah dough (i.e., dough that has been set aside and consecrated to a Kohen (a Jewish priest), presumably, even if the am ha'aretz himself is a Kohen). But one can make him ritually pure but unconsecrated dough in a state of purity, separate Challah (i.e. the Kohen's portion of the dough) from it, and give it to him inside a K'fisha [=כפישה, an inverted basket of twigs or on a tray (which would not be susceptible to impurity), see Jastrow] and an am ha'aretz can come and take this and that [the K'fisha and the dough]. Do not make him ritually pure Terumah olives (i.e., olives that have been set aside and consecrated to a Kohen, presumably, even if the am ha'aretz himself is a Kohen) (see Tos. Terumot 9:10; Y. Ter. XI.3.3), but one can make him ritually pure but unconsecrated olives, separate from them the priestly portion, and give to him inside a vessel of a chaver (see above Tos. Demai 2:2), and the am ha'aretz can come and take both of them [the olives and the vessel].

Tosefta Terumot

We may not [use terumah spices to] produce aluntit wine (=œnanthe, a health elixir made of aged wine, clear water, and balsam, either drunk or applied to the skin, see Jastrow, Avodah Zarah 30a:2), or spiced oil, and if one did produce aluntit wine or spiced oil, one may [post-facto] anoint himself with the oil but may not anoint himself with the aluntit wine or vinegar*, as oil is ordinarily used for anointing but wine or vinegar* are not normally used for anointing. [*Note: The GR"A strikes "וחומץ"= "or vinegar" here.]

Tosefta Terumot

Pure terumah olives may be made into oil, [but] impure [olives] are not made into oil. [With respect to terumah] grapes, whether impure or pure, they should not be made [into wine], the words of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi Ya'akov says*, Rabbi Eliezer agrees with Rabbi Yehoshua that pure olives may be made into oil. What did they disagree on? About impure olives -- that Rabbi Eliezer says they may not be made [into oil], and Rabbi Yehoshua says, they may be made [into oil]. (*Note: MS Erfurt switches the positions of Rabbi Eliezer and Rabbi Yehoshua.) And [with respect to] pure grapes, that they may be made into [into wine], and impure [grapes] may not be made [into wine]. Said Rabbi Yehuda, Rabbi Yehoshua agrees with Rabbi Eliezer with [respect to] pure olives and with [respect to] pure grapes. What did they disagree on? About impure [olives and grapes]. For Rabbi Eliezer says, they may not be made [into oil and wine, respectively], and Rabbi Yehoshua says, they may be made [into oil and wine]. Said Rebbi, Rabbi Eliezer and Rabbi Yehoshua did not disagree about pure olives that are made [into oil] or about impure grapes that are not made [into wine]. What did they disagree on? About impure olives and about pure grapes, that Rabbi Eliezer says, they may not be made [into oil and wine], *and Rabbi Yehoshua says they may be made [into oil and wine]. (*Note: The addition of the clause "and ... made" follows the Yerushalmi and MSS.)
