"חמשה לא יתרומו – A number to exclude that which Rabbi Yehuda says further on (Mishnah 3), “A minor who did not bring forth two [pubic] hairs, his [separation of] heave-offering/Terumah/priest’s due is not a heave-offering, which tells us that his [separation of] heave-offering is not Terumah (the 2% initial sacred gift that one gives to the Kohen).",
"החרש והשוטה והקטן – All of them are derived from one Biblical verse, as it is written (Exodus 25:2): “Tell the Israelite people to bring Me gifts; [you shall accept for Me] from every person whose heart so moves him.” [The words] \"אל בני ישראל\" /”to the Israelite people” -except for a heathen; [the words] מאת כל איש/“from every person” – except for a minor; [the words] \"אשר ידבנו לבו\"/”whose heart so moves him” – except for a deaf-mute and imbecile, who lack the temperament to be able to donate. And a minor is not able [even] to do a little, from [the words] \"אשר ידבנו לבו\"/”whose heart so moves him,” for there is a minor who arrived at the season of taking vows, who has the temperament to be able to donate. [The words] \"וזאת התרומה אשר תקחו מאתם\"/”And these are the gifts that you shall accept from them” (verse 3), excluding to the person who donates what is not his. And the “imbecile”- who loses what they give him is called an imbecile/\"שוטה\".",
"אפילו ברשות – [even with the permission] of a Jew as an Israelite made him his agent to give Terumah/the heave-offering, his donation of Terumah is not a donation, as it is written (Numbers 18:28) “So shall you on your part set aside a gift [for the LORD from all the tithes that you receive from the Israelites]…” – also to include your agents. Just as you are members of the covenant, so also your agents [must be] members of the covenant (“Jews”)."

[
"לא יתרום – ab initio for one needs to let his ears hear as he makes the blessing (see Mishnah Berakhot, Chapter 3, Mishnah 3 which also deals with the issue of “letting his ears hear”/\"צריך להשמיע לאזניו\" .",
"חרש שדברו בו חכמים – it is not a general principle, for at the beginning of Tractate Hagigah it is taught that a deaf person who speaks but does not hear is included, and in the chapter מצות חליצה/The command of Halitzah (see specifically, Mishnah 4), regarding the subject of “removing the shoe” [of the dead husband’s brother who refuses to perform a levirate marriage].",
"שאינו שומע ואינו מדבר – who born deaf from his mother’s womb, and since he never heard what they are saying to him, it is impossible for him that he could speak."

[
"רבי יהודה אומר: תרומתו תרומה – de facto, for Rabbi Yehuda does not [hold] by this interpretation of מאת כל איש/”from every person” (Exodus 25:2) -except for a minor.",
"עד שלא בא לעונת נדרים – A male at the age of twelve years and one day and a female at the age of eleven years and one day, and from that period onward, if he donated the Terumah/the sacred heave-offering (2% gift to the Kohen), what he set aside is Terumah. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yosi."
],
[
"אין תורמין זיתים על השמן – He who has [olive] oil that he is liable to separate from it the [sacred] heave-offering (i.e., the 2% for the Kohen) and olives that he is liable to separate from them the [sacred] heave-offering is not able to give from [sacred] heave-offering from the olives according to the measure that he has to donate for the olives and the oil [together], and to be exempt from [donating] the oil with the heave-offering of the olives, as it is written (Numbers 18:27): “[This shall be accounted to you as your gift.] As with the new grain from the threshing floor [or the flow from the vat],” – from what is completed [you donate as heave-offering] for what is completed but you do not [donate as heave-offering] from what is not complete on what is complete.",
"ואם תרם בית שמאי אומרים: תרומת עצמן יש להן – that is to say, there is no [sacred] heave-offering here, other than only on the olives, but not on the oil.",
"ובית הלל אומרים: אינה תרומה – for since he had the intention of donating [the heave-offering/priest’s due] also on the oil, there is no Terumah/heave-offering – neither on the olives nor on the oil, and it is as if he had not donated the [sacred] heave-offering at all."
],
[
"אין תורמין מן הלקט מן השכחה ומן הפאה – whomever has a heap of produce, pending the separation of sacred gifts to the Kohanim and Levites may not set aside upon it priest’s due from produce that fell, was forgotten [in the field] or from the corner of the field that is in his hand, as these are gifts to the poor and one cannot to make his heaps of produce pending separation of the sacred gifts legally fit for use by giving the priestly due with the gifts to the poor. ",
"Concerning that which is הפקר/ownerless, it is written (Deuteronomy 14:29): “Then the Levite, who has not hereditary portion as you have….” from what you have and that he lacks, you are required to give, excluding that which is ownerless, for both your hand and his hand are equivalent [concerning this].",
"ולא ממעשר ראשון שנטלה תרומתו – We do not donate from it the Kohen’s share of the produce (2%) on a pile of produce requiring separation of Levitical and Priestly tithes that is in his hand, and it was necessary for us to teach where they placed the son of a Levite ahead of a Kohen with regard to sheaves that are exempt from the “great Terumah”[the 2% that goes to the Kohen], and specifically where he took his priest’s due , but where he did not take his priest’s due, he can make the donation as it is taught in [Midrash] Sifrei [Bemidbar/Numbers, Piska 119] : From where does the son of a Levite who wanted to take from his First Tithe – the Great Terumah (the 2% for the Kohen), from where [do we learn] that he may do this? As the inference teaches us: (Numbers 18:24): “For it is the tithes set aside by the Israelites as a gift to the LORD [that I gave to the Levites their share]...,” that if he wanted to make it priest’s due for others, he may do so; he may, even after he has taken his priest’s due – he may make it priest’s due for others, as the inference teaches us (Numbers 18:29): “the part that of that is to be consecrated.” As long as its holiness is within it, he can make it Terumah/priest’s due for others; but if its holiness is not within it, he cannot make it Terumah for others.",
"ולא ממעשר שני והקדש שנפדו – This Tanna holds that Second Tithe [belongs] to On-High (God), and where it wasn’t redeemed, it is obvious that he cannot to make things legally fit for use by giving the priestly dues with his pile of produce which is forbidden to be eaten pending the separation of priestly gifts with the monies of On-High (God); but, where they had been redeemed, I might think I would say, that he is able to make them “the great Terumah’ (the 2% gift to the Kohen) on his produce which is forbidden to be eaten pending the separation of priestly gifts, and should you say, that this also is obvious, for that which is completely non-sacred is what is necessary, for where they were zealous with the sheaves, where he is exempt from [donating] the priest’s due/Terumah Gedolah , as we explained for First Tithe. והקדש שנפדה – It is also necessary when he sanctifies (i.e., as a gift to the Temple) produce which is forbidden to be eaten pending the separation of priestly gifts, and the treasure has smoothed out the pile and afterwards redeemed it, that it is exempt from Terumah/priest’s due. -",
"מן הפטור על החיוב – such as from produce that had not yet grown one-third (i.e., not one-third ripe), which are exempt from tithes on the produce instead of from produce that had grown one-third (i.e., that was one-third ripe).",
"ולא מן התלוש על המחובר – as it is written (Numbers 18:26): “you shall set aside from them [one-tenth of the tithe as a gift to the LORD],” you shall not give from what is detached instead of what is attached, and not what is attached instead of what is detached, for the language הרמה/separating the priest’s gift does not belong other than with detached [produce], and from it, it implies, that the priest’s due and the non-sacred produce are similar.",
"מן החדש על הישן – from the produce of this year instead of the produce from the previous year nor the produce from the previous year instead of from the produce of this year, as it is written (Deuteronomy 14:22): “that is brought from the field every year,” but a field that produces two harvesting seasons in a year such as a field which needs irrigation you make the gift of priest’s due from this [year] instead of from the produce of the previous year.",
"ולא מפירות הארץ על פירות חוצה לארץ – As it is written (Leviticus 27:30): “All tithes from the land, whether seed from the ground [or fruit from the tree, are the LORD’s…,” the Biblical verse reveals concerning [First] Tithe and the same law applies for Terumah/priest’s due, and similarly, one does not donate as priest’s due from the produce of the Land of Israel instead of the produce that is found in Syria, nor from the produce that is in Syria instead of the produce from the Land of Israel."
],
[
"חמשה לא יתרומו – This number excludes from what Rabbi Yehuda said [in Mishnah 3] that a minor who donated the priest’s due/heave-offering, his donation is an offering.",
"האלם – and he hears but stopped speaking as a result of illness, he should not donate priest’s due because he is unable to recite the Blessing. And similarly, is unable to recite the blessing , as it is written (Deuteronomy 23:15): “[Since the LORD your God moves about in your camp to protect you…]; let Him not find anything unseemly among you [and turn away from you];” at the time when you speak about it, He will not find anything unseemly.",
"ובעל קרי – also at the time of the ordinance in His presence for since his ritual immersion has been nullified, he was not able to recite the blessing as it is taught in the Mishnah [i.e. Berakhot, Chapter 3, Mishnah 4] that one to whom a pollution (i.e., nocturnal emission) occurred, only thinks (i.e., recites the Shema] in his heart (which, according to Talmud Berakhot 20b – that reviewing a passage in one’s mind is as good as loud recitation).",
"והשכור והסומא – who do not know how to single out/sift from that which is fine and we require that the person who donates the priest’s due/Terumah sift and donate that which is fine, as it is written (Numbers 18:29): “from each thing its best portion, [the part thereof that is to be consecrated];” and a drunk person is called such as all who are unable to speak in the presence of the King as a result of his drunkenness."
],
[
"אין תורמין לא במדה – As it is written (Numbers 18:27): “ This shall be accounted to you as your gift…” by thought, you donate [the sacred gift], that is to say, by estimation, but you do not donate neither by measure nor by weight nor by number. And even though this Biblical verse is written concerning the tithe of the tithe which the Levite owes to the Kohen (Numbers 18:26 – which is 10% of what he had received from Israelites -תרומת מעשר ), if it has no relation to the tithe of the tithe, for the Torah indeed had given it a measure, and he must measure in order that he gives the appropriate size/limit."
],
[
"הזיתים הנכתשים – it was customary to crush olives in a mortar-shaped cavity to remove their oil.",
"תרומתו תרומה – it is completed, from the Torah.",
"ויחזור ויתרום – from the perspective of the Rabbis, after he has completed the pounding of those olives and the treading of the grapes, he will go back and remove the priest’s due a second time according to the measure that is needed for oil and win that he has removed.",
"הראשונה מדמעת – if it fell to less than one-hundred [parts] non-holy produce, everything is made subject to the law of Terumah through an admixture and it is prohibited to “foreigners” (i.e., non-Kohanim) and everything is sold to a Kohen – for it is complete priest’s due according to the Torah.",
"וחייבין עליה חומש – a foreigner (i.e., non-Kohen) who eats it inadvertently pays the principle and [an additional] one-fifth according to the law regarding all foreigners who eat priest’s due.",
"אבל לא שניה – because it is not other than a Rabbinic ordinance; therefore it is not eaten until priest’s due and tithes are separated from it from another placer, since from the Torah, it is completely produce that cannot be eaten until Levitical and Priestly gifts have been separated, and if you ask – what is the difference here when one separates priest’s due from [olive] oil instead of from pounded olives, that his separated priest’s due is priest’s due, and then separates priest’s due again and what is the difference above concerning one who separates priest’s due olives instead of [olive] oil and grapes instead of wine where his separation of priest’s due is not priest’s due? And one can say that regarding a person who separates priest due from olives instead of [olive] oil, where there is a loss to the Kohen, his separating priest’s due is priest’s due/Terumah, but that the Rabbis are they who decreed that he should go back and separate priest’s due once again."
],
[
"זיתים הנכבשים – olives that are salty or pickled in wine or vinegar in order that they would be preserved and would be consider as something where its preparation had been completed; therefore, we separate priest’s due from the [olive] oil on them, and especially, [olive] oil instead of the olives which are about to have their oil removed from them, and similar wine in place of grapes which are about to be trodden upon – that is what is prohibited to from it the priest’s due, but wine in place of raisins, and [olive] oil in place of olives that are pickled is permitted, and when he separates the priest’s due from the [olive] - instead of the preserved olives, and from the wine instead of the raisins, he separates the priest’s due according to the appropriate oil that came out from the preserved olives and according to the appropriate wine that came out from the grapes.",
"אין צריך לתרום – since when he separated the priest’s due, he did so well, for at that hour, they were meant to be eaten."
],
[
"אין תורמים מדבר שנגמרה מלאכתו – from something that was shaped into an even pile.",
"על דבר שלא נגמרה מלאכתו – that was not shaped into an even pile, as it is written (Numbers 18:27): “As with the new grain from the threshing floor or from the flow from the vat,” that whose preparation is completed with that which is completed and not from that whose preparation has been completed in place of that which is completed and not from what is not completed in place of what is completed.",
"ואם תרם תרומתו תרומה – and specifically for the rest of the produce, but when one donates for priest’s due from olives in place of olive oil or from grapes in place of wine, that which we said above (Mishnah 4), that his donation of priest’s due is not a valid gift, because there is a loss to the Kohen as we have said."
]

[
[
"אין תורמין מטהור על הטמא – as a decree lest he separate the heave offering that is not brought near because they are afraid lest the impure [produce] will come in contact with the pure and defile it. But we require that the person who separates the heave offering separates from that which is brought near.",
"באמת אמרו – wherever it is taught: \"באמת אמרו\" /”in fact that they said that,” it is as if it is a usage dating from Moses as delivered from Sinai (i.e., a traditional interpretation of a written law), but not exactly a usage dating from Moses as delivered from Sinai, for in the first chapter of [Tractate] Shabbat [Mishnah 3], we taught: “in fact that they said that the teacher sees [by the light of a lamp] where the children are reading,” and this is from the Rabbis (as opposed to from the Bible).",
"העגול של דבילה – even though the cakes of pressed figs are glued to each other in the midst of the cake of pressed figs, they are not thought of as attached regarding ritual defilement, and if defilement touched one of the cakes of pressed figs, the other is not ritually defiled.",
"וכן אגודה של יקרק וכן ערימה – it is necessary [to mention both], for if it (i.e., the Mishnah) had taught [only] the circular cake of pressed figs, I would have said that the cake of pressed figs which is one substance, he separates the heave-offering, [but] the bunch [of greens] which is not one substance, he does not separate the heave-offering. But if it (i.e., the Mishnah) had taught [only] the bunch [of greens], I would have said, the bunch [of greens] where it is all one possession, he separates the heave-offering, [but] a pile is not one possession, which he doesn’t separate the heave-offering, hence, they are all necessary.",
"רבי אליעזר אומר תורמים – ab initio from that which is ritually pure for that which is ritually defiled, for Rabbi Eliezer did not decree lest he come to separate the heave-offering from that which is not brought near , but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Eliezer."
],
[
"אין תורמין מן הטמא על הטהור – because of the loss to the Kohen [because ritually impure heave-offering is forbidden to the Kohen].",
"ואם תרם שוגג תרומתו תרומה – and exactly when it had been fit for use and the season for separating tithes had arrived prior to it becoming ritually impure, because according to the Torah It is perfect heave-offering, but if it he set aside heave-offering, even in advertently, his heave-offering is not a heave-offering.",
"מעשר טבל – First Tithe that had not had the Terumah of the tithe taken from it.",
"היה מפריש עליו והולך – he would separate from this on the rest of the tithes."
],
[
"אם היה יודע בתחלה – that it is eatables forbidden pending the separation of sacred gifts or it is ritually impure, even though that at the time that he separated the heave-offering, it was inadvertent, for he forgot that it is forbidden pending the separation of sacred gifts, or that it is ritually impure, it is inadvertently that is close to willfully committed, and he did not do anything. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.",
"המטביל כלים בשבת – that it is forbidden to immerse ritually impure utensils, and to raise them from their ritual impurity on the Sabbath because it appears like repairing a utensil.",
"והמבשל בשבת – [and he who cooks on the Sabbath] inadvertently , he can eat that cooked dish on Saturday night (i.e., after the conclusion of the Sabbath), but not on the Sabbath itself. But [if he cooked it] willfully, he may not eat of it, but others may eat consume it on Saturday night, as it is written (Exodus 31:14): “You shall keep the sabbath, for it is holy;” it is holy, but its actions are not holy.",
"ובשביעית בין שוגג בין מזיד יעקר – that Israelites were suspected about [observance] of the Seventh year, but are not suspected regarding the Sabbath."

"כל מין חטים אחד – and even though there is reddish, dark-colored wheat and white-colored [wheat].",
"וכל מין תאנים אחד – and even though there are black [figs] and white [figs], figs while they are yet moist are called תאנים/figs, and when they have dried, they are called גרוגרות/dried figs, and when they are trodden in circular cake, they are called עגול דבלה/cake of pressed figs.",
"תורם מן היפה – from the figs on the dried figs, for figs are choicest than dried figs (see also Tractate Bikkurim, Chapter 3, Mishnah 3).",
"תורם מן המתקיים – from the dried figs on the figs, for dried figs endure more.",
"לעולם הוא תורם מן היפה – as it is written (Numbers 18:30): “When you have removed the best part from it [you Levites may consider it the same as the yield of threshing floor or vat],” we always require the best/choicest part, and if he (i.e., the Kohen) loses, he loses.

"כל שהוא כלאים בחבירו לא יתרום מזה לזה – as Scripture states (Numbers 18:12): “All the best of the new oil, wine and grain [the choice parts that they present to the LORD – I give to you],” the Torah stated: give oil to this one and oil to that one.",

"תרומה ויחזור ויתרום – and he gives both of them to the Kohen, and the Kohen gives him the monetary value of the firs which islarger than the second, and second’s [value] is reduced according to what the heave-offering of the first costs, and since the Kohen makes a claim against his colleague, and we hold that in every place that “the claimant must produce evidence”/ \"המוציא מחבירו עליו הראיה\"(see Tractate Bava Metzia, Chapter 3, Mishnah 11), therefore, he does not acquire without money but the smaller/lesser object, and he must give him the monetary value of the larger/more important object which is the first.",
"הראשונה אינה מדמעת בפני עצמה – if less than one-hundred of non-sacred produce had fallen, something otherwise exempt, does not become subject to the law of Terumah, to mix non-sacred grain/wine/oil with Terumah in proportions to make the whole prohibited to non-priests, lest it is not Terumah but rather the second one is Terumah, and similarly, the second part does not become a mixture of sacred and non-sacred produce on its own, lest the firs part was Terumah and not the second.",
"ואין חייבים עליה חומש – a foreigner (i.e., non-Kohen) who ate the first [batch] (which may have doubtfully been Terumah since it may have fermented) alone or the second [batch] alone, he does not pay the one-fifth penalty like the law of others who consume heave-offering inadvertently."

"מדמעות בקטנה שבשתיהן – like the measure of the second [batch] which is the smaller of the two of them, and if here is in the non-sacred produce one hundred [parts] corresponding to the smaller [batch], it does not impose the status of heave-offering , but one takes from the non-sacred produce like the measure of those two heave-offerings that fell in them and he gives them to the Kohen and the rest of it is non-sacred produce as they were."

"תרומת שניהם תרומה – that is the heave-offering of each of them is one-half heave-offering and one-half non-sacred produce, it is found that twhen both of them separated heave offering, from fifty Seah, that this one [set aside] one Seah and that individual one Seah, that the heave-offering was not sanctified other than one-half Seah belonging to this one and one-half Seah belonging to that one, each one of them according to his portion.",
"אם תרם הראשון כשעור – one from fifty – according to the measure that the Sages gave, his heave-offering is a heave-offering. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yosi (see Tractate Terumot, Chapter 4, Mishnah 3) , for he comes to explain the words of the Sages. But there are those who explain that if the first [person] separated according to the measure that his colleague separated [for heave-offering] afterwards, his heave-offering is a heave-offering, as we see that it was easy for him for that latter one with what the first one set aside as a heave-offering , for it was his intention agrees with him, in the measure of the heave-offering.

"בטל – if afer he had appointed an agent to separate the heave-offering, he cancelled his agency after the agent went from before him.",
"חוץ – the owners who are illiterate who hired workers who are members of the order for the observance of Levitical laws in daily intercourse in order to separate the heave-offering in ritual purity, are permitted to separate the heave offering until the illiterate owners arrived who would defile the heave-offering, because they ritually defile the vat for wine pressing, for the illiterate owners immediately when the when those who tread began to stamp and they went to the vat for wine pressing in the longitudinal and latitudinal directions are not more careful from coming into contact in their vas for wine-pressing and defile it, because they think that immediately when they begin to tread, their colleagues had separated out the Great Terumah/heave-offering (i.e., two percent for the Kohen). Therefore, they separate the members of the order for the observance of Levitical laws in daily intercourse that stamp from the wine in order [to reach] the measure of heave-offering that is necessary for the vat for wine-pressing immediately when they walked in it longitudinally and latitudinally. If the owners would come and defile the vat for wine pressing prior to their completing it, they have designated wine to separate everything in ritual purity."

"קרא שם – and he must separate the heave-offering and to tithe from within it., but he is not able to separate [tithes] from another place. And even though the All-Merciful called the Terumah/heave offering \"ראשית\"/”the first” and we require that its remnants are recognized, for since he said, “within it,” it implies, in the middle of the pile will be the heave-offering, but there is surrounding it which is its remnants that are recognized.",
"עד שיאמר בצפונו או בדרומו – even though “within it” implies in its middle, it is not a specific place, and it is as if he did not say anything until he would say, in its northern portion or in its southern portion, and this is the Halakha.",

"עשור מעשר זה וכו' – Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov disputes on Rabbi Shimon who stated that this Terumah of the tithe (which the Levite to a Kohen) is within the pile that he validly designated, but after the tithe is separated, if he stated that the Terumah of the tithe is for it, he has validly designated it.

Another explanation: “and he gave a Seah to the son of Levite and a Seah to a poor person, and they went on their way. But when he came to separate eight Seah from the storehouse and to eat them on the support of the two Seah that he gave to the son of the Levite and the poor person, he doesn’t know if those two Seah exist or not. Rabbi Meir says that he should separate eight Seah and eat them, in support of those two Seah that he gave to the son of the Levite and the poor person in the presupposition that they exist. But the Sages say that he does not separate other than according to a calculation [of the percentage of tithes which to be separated from the batch as a whole], that exist; if all of the two Seah exist, he separates upon them eight Seah and a bit more, and if only one-half of them exist, he does not separate on them other than four Seah, according to the calculation of what he finds of them existing, thus he separates upon them and not more.
