First tithe

What is his reason? He has a Gezer HaShava.

Just like my Ma'aser doesn't apply by...

How do you know my Ma'aser doesn't apply? But I can't walk.

Parva terefa is lame.

So therefore, dafka an animal that's overta hata shabet.

B'merubin.

Yashita Gez, you don't give unless you have five.

Ma'aser, you don't give unless you have ten.

And, uh, yeah, and, and, and, and the section that belongs to the Yid is Tevel.

You need to separate Maaser, Terumah u'Maaseres from.

The, the section that belongs to Oved Kochavim is Chulin.

There's no Terumah u'Maaseres for Oved Kochavim.

So it says, "Rebbe, you have Terumah and you have, and you have Ch- and, and Chulin all mixed together." Whereas Rab Shim'on Gamaliel Omer, "SheYsrael Chayav V'Oved Kochavim Patur." Whereas Rab Shim'on Gamaliel says, "Look, you c- you can, in fact, actually just draw a line down the middle and say, for example, the right side," for it could be the left side too, but let's just say for example, "the right side belongs to the Yid, and the left side belongs to Oved Kochavim, and that's that." The left side that belongs to Oved Kochavim is Chulin.

The right side that belongs to the Yid is Tevel, and you have to separate Terumah u'Maaseres from the right side.

Now, "Ad Kan Lo Pligeh LeDami Savra Yesh Bereira U'ma Savra Ein Bereira." Okay, the Machloket between Rebbe and Rab Shim'on Gamaliel, his father, is merely a technical one.

Is it possible to say that when a Yid and a Oved Kochavim jointly own a field, can you in fact just draw a line down the middle and say that one side belongs to the Yids and the other side belongs to Oved Kochavim? Like, who says? [laughs] Right? The Yid and the Oved Kochavim jointly own this field.

We're talking about those who aren't sold in the butchers.

We're talking about those that are sold in the people's houses, which we're speaking simply about the B'chor and the Maser, which are not sold in public spaces.

Those don't need Rishum.

All the others would need Rishum.

Most notably, who was absent? The Levi'im.

As a result, Ezra penalized them, and he took away their Maaser Rishon and gave that portion ultimately again to the Kohen.

Incredible.

To which the Gemara said, "Emertakan sinu Ezra talo yaavi, talo yaavina lo mishkominavi amar." So, okay, we could say that Ezra said you don't have to give the Levi Maaser Rishon, but if you gave Levi Maaser Rishon, would Ezra actually say that you extract it from the Levi? "Elek ikon zroha veloz roha." Rather, again, Abose, when we say that you extract certain gifts from the Levi and give it to the Kohen, we don't mean more matanos.

We don't mean the zroha itself.

Rather, we mean like the zroha.

To which the Gemara says, "No, no, no. Kigon, zroah veloz zroah." No, no.

We need something like the zroah, but not the zroah itself.

It was, meaning it's more like returning a, returning a debt or something, um, rather than giving of my own, of my own money.

Aval Pidyon Haben, Aval HaFrashat Chalah, Maaser, and Netinar.

Right? Whereas when it comes to other, right, Pidyon Haben or HaFrashat Chalah or Ma- or Maaser, you make a Bracha.

Why? MiPnei Sheh-Ino Mekubarev Al HaNetina, Ela Al HaHaFrashat, V'Al HaPidyon SheTchulu Yivo.

It's not that, like, there's something specific that, right? The, um, there's, there's an act of either HaFrashah or Pidyon or something that really, like, constitutes some kind of, um, change in the Halakhic status of the objects in question.

You're not allowed to eat Tevel.

Before you give the Terumah, before you give all the Maaser of the Terumah, you're obligated to-- You're not allowed to eat from it, and you get death in the hands of Heaven.

So it's, it-it's the equivalent, similar to it.

The law is not like that here.

Because if you don't eat it, I'm allowed to-- If you don't give the Maaser, the, the meat is prohibited.

It is permitted.

It's not like Tevel.

I can't eat the yield of the produce before I separate the Terumah and the Maaser.
