## Pesachim Daf 35b

###### Pesachim 35b:1
[Pesachim 35b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:1)

וּמֵי פֵירוֹת אֵין מַחְמִיצִין.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**and fruit juice does not** cause dough to be **leavened.** Therefore, dough prepared with these liquids is not considered full-fledged leavened bread.


###### Pesachim 35b:2
[Pesachim 35b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:2)

יוֹצֵא בִּדְמַאי וּבְמַעֲשֵׂר וְכוּ׳. דְּמַאי הָא לָא חֲזֵי לֵיהּ! כֵּיוָן דְּאִי בָּעֵי מַפְקַר לְנִכְסֵיהּ הָוֵי עָנִי וְאוֹכֵל דְּמַאי — הַשְׁתָּא נָמֵי חֲזֵי לֵיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara turns to the cases of the mishna. The mishna taught that one can **fulfill** his obligation to eat *matza* **with doubtfully tithed produce and** with produce **of** the **first tithe,** from which *teruma* has been separated. The Gemara asks: Can one really fulfill his obligation with **doubtfully tithed produce?** It is **not suitable for him** to eat. The Sages prohibited the eating of doubtfully tithed produce that has not been tithed. The Gemara answers: **Since, if one** so **desires** he may **renounce** all **his property,** thereby becoming a poor person who is permitted to eat doubtfully tithed produce, **now too it is suitable for him,** even though he did not declare his property ownerless. Consequently, if he used doubtfully tithed produce as *matza*, he has fulfilled the mitzva after the fact.


###### Pesachim 35b:3
[Pesachim 35b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:3)

דִּתְנַן: מַאֲכִילִין אֶת הָעֲנִיִּים דְּמַאי, וְאֶת אַכְסַנְיָא דְּמַאי. וְאָמַר רַב הוּנָא: תָּנָא בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים: אֵין מַאֲכִילִין אֶת הָעֲנִיִּים דְּמַאי וְאֶת הָאַכְסַנְיָא דְּמַאי, וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: מַאֲכִילִין.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**As we learned** in a mishna: **One** may **feed the poor doubtfully tithed produce, and** he may also feed Jewish **soldiers [*akhsanya*]** who lodge with him **doubtfully tithed produce. And Rav Huna said** that it **was taught** that **Beit Shammai say: One** may **neither feed the poor doubtfully tithed produce, nor** feed **soldiers doubtfully tithed produce. And Beit Hillel say: One** may **feed** these groups doubtfully tithed produce. This mishna indicates that doubtfully tithed produce is not prohibited to the same extent as entirely untithed produce, as in certain situations the prohibition pertaining to doubtfully tithed produce does not take effect.


###### Pesachim 35b:4
[Pesachim 35b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:4)

מַעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן שֶׁנִּטְּלָה תְּרוּמָתוֹ וְכוּ׳. פְּשִׁיטָא! דְּכֵיוָן שֶׁנִּטְּלָה תְּרוּמָתוֹ חוּלִּין הָוֵי!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The mishna taught that one can fulfill the obligation to eat *matza* with produce of the **first tithe from which its *teruma*,** the *teruma* of the tithe, **was taken** and given to a priest. The Gemara asks: Isn’t that **obvious, as, since its *teruma* has been taken, it is non-sacred** food? What novel element is taught by this statement?


###### Pesachim 35b:5
[Pesachim 35b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:5)

לָא צְרִיכָא — שֶׁהִקְדִּימוֹ בְּשִׁיבֳּלִים, וְנִטְּלָה הֵימֶנּוּ תְּרוּמַת מַעֲשֵׂר וְלֹא נִטְּלָה הֵימֶנּוּ תְּרוּמָה גְּדוֹלָה, וְכִדְרַבִּי אֲבָהוּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara answers: **No,** it is **necessary** to teach the *halakha* in a case where a Levite **preceded** the priest while the grain was still **on** its **stalks.** Ordinarily, the Levite would be given his first tithe only after the priest had taken the *teruma gedola*; however, in this case the Levite took his portion before the priest. **And the *teruma* of the tithe was taken** by the Levite from his tithe so that he would be permitted to eat the tithe; however, **the *teruma gedola* was not taken from** the produce at all. **And** the novel element of the mishna is **in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Abbahu.**


###### Pesachim 35b:6
[Pesachim 35b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:6)

דְּאָמַר רַבִּי אֲבָהוּ אָמַר רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן לָקִישׁ: מַעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן שֶׁהִקְדִּימוֹ בְּשִׁיבֳּלִים — פָּטוּר מִתְּרוּמָה גְּדוֹלָה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״וַהֲרֵמֹתֶם מִמֶּנּוּ תְּרוּמַת ה׳ מַעֲשֵׂר מִן הַמַּעֲשֵׂר״. מַעֲשֵׂר מִן הַמַּעֲשֵׂר אָמַרְתִּי לְךָ, וְלֹא תְּרוּמָה גְּדוֹלָה וּתְרוּמַת מַעֲשֵׂר מִן הַמַּעֲשֵׂר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**As Rabbi Abbahu said** that **Rabbi Shimon ben Lakish said: First tithe** in which the Levite **preceded** the priest while the grain was still **on the stalks is exempt from *teruma gedola*,** even though the Levite thereby reduces the amount of grain the priest receives. **As it is stated:** “Moreover you shall speak to the Levites and say to them: When you take from the children of Israel the tithe which I have given you from them as your inheritance, **and you shall set apart from it a gift for the Lord, a tithe from the tithe”** (Numbers 18:26). This verse teaches that the Levite is obligated to set apart **a tithe from the tithe,** i.e., the *teruma* of the tithe, **and not *teruma gedola* and the *teruma* of the tithe from the tithe.**


###### Pesachim 35b:7
[Pesachim 35b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:7)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ רַב פָּפָּא לְאַבָּיֵי: אֶלָּא מֵעַתָּה, אֲפִילּוּ הִקְדִּימוֹ בִּכְרִי נָמֵי לִיפְּטַר? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: עָלֶיךָ אָמַר קְרָא ״מִכֹּל מַתְּנֹתֵיכֶם תָּרִימוּ אֵת כׇּל תְּרוּמַת ה׳״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Pappa said to Abaye: However, if** that **is so, even** if the Levite **preceded** the priest after the kernels of grain were removed from the stalks and placed **in a pile,** the Levite should not have to separate *teruma gedola* in this case either. Abaye **said to him: With regard to your** claim, **the verse states: “From all that is given to you, you shall set apart all of that which is the Lord’s *teruma*,** of all the best of it, even its consecrated portion” (Numbers 18:29). This verse teaches that the Levites must designate a portion of the gifts they receive and give it to the priests.


###### Pesachim 35b:8
[Pesachim 35b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:8)

וּמָה רָאִיתָ?! הַאי אִידְּגַן, וְהַאי לָא אִידְּגַן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **And what did you see** to lead you to require the separation of *teruma gedola* from first tithe that was taken from grain in piles and not from first tithe that was taken from grain on stalks? Abaye answers: **This** produce, after being threshed and placed into piles, is completely processed and **has become grain; and that** produce on the stalk **did not** yet **become grain,** and the Levite is therefore exempt from separating *teruma gedola* from it. Produce that has been arranged in a pile is called grain by the Torah and is given to the priest. Once it is classified as grain, the right of the priest takes effect and the Levite is required to separate *teruma gedola* from it.


###### Pesachim 35b:9
[Pesachim 35b:9](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:9)

מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי וְהֶקְדֵּשׁ שֶׁנִּפְדּוּ וְכוּ׳. פְּשִׁיטָא! הָכָא בְּמַאי עָסְקִינַן, שֶׁנָּתַן אֶת הַקֶּרֶן וְלֹא נָתַן אֶת הַחוֹמֶשׁ. וְקָא מַשְׁמַע לַן דְּאֵין חוֹמֶשׁ מְעַכֵּב.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The mishna taught that one can fulfill his obligation to eat *matza* with **second-tithe** grain **and** with **consecrated** grain **that was redeemed.** The Gemara asks: It is **obvious** that this is the case, as consecrated grain that has been redeemed is non-sacred produce. The Gemara answers: **With what are we dealing here?** We are dealing with a case where the consecrated property was not completely redeemed, i.e., **where one gave** payment for **the principal,** the value of the tithe, **but he did not give** payment for the additional **fifth** due when redeeming consecrated items. **And** the mishna **teaches us** that failure to add **the fifth does not invalidate** the redemption. Although there is an obligation to pay this additional fifth, the neglect of this duty does not prevent the grain from becoming non-sacred.


###### Pesachim 35b:10
[Pesachim 35b:10](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:10)

וְהַכֹּהֲנִים בְּחַלָּה וּבִתְרוּמָה וְכוּ׳. פְּשִׁיטָא! מַהוּ דְּתֵימָא: מַצָּה שָׁוָה לְכׇל אָדָם בָּעֵינַן, קָא מַשְׁמַע לַן — ״מַצּוֹת״ ״מַצּוֹת״ רִיבָּה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And** the mishna further taught that **priests** can fulfill their obligation **with** *matza* of ***ḥalla* and with *teruma*.** The Gemara again asks: It is **obvious** that this is the case. Since a priest is permitted to eat *ḥalla* and *teruma*, he can fulfill his obligation to eat *matza* with them. The Gemara responds: This ruling is nevertheless necessary, **lest you say** that **we require *matza*** that may be eaten **equally by anyone,** which would mean that *matza* that may not be eaten by regular Israelites is prohibited to priests as well. The mishna therefore **teaches us** that the repetition of the words **“*matzot*,” “*matzot*”** (Deuteronomy 16:3, 8) comes to **amplify,** i.e., one can fulfill one’s obligation to eat *matza* even with foods that may be eaten only by specific people.


###### Pesachim 35b:11
[Pesachim 35b:11](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:11)

אֲבָל לֹא בְּטֶבֶל וְכוּ׳. פְּשִׁיטָא! לָא צְרִיכָא, בְּטֶבֶל טָבוּל מִדְּרַבָּנַן שֶׁזְּרָעוֹ בְּעָצִיץ שֶׁאֵינוֹ נָקוּב.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
We learned in the mishna: **However,** one may **not** fulfill this obligation **with untithed produce.** The Gemara asks: It is **obvious** that this is the case, as it is always prohibited to eat *tevel*. The Gemara explains: **No, it is necessary** to teach this *halakha* in a case **where** it is considered **untithed produce by rabbinic** law, and by Torah law the produce is permitted. For instance, this is the case with regard to grain **that one sowed in an unperforated flowerpot.** Anything grown disconnected from the ground is not defined as produce of the ground, and its owner is exempt by Torah law from tithing it. However, by rabbinic law, grain sowed in **an unperforated flowerpot** is considered untithed.


###### Pesachim 35b:12
[Pesachim 35b:12](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:12)

וְלֹא בְּמַעֲשֵׂר רִאשׁוֹן שֶׁלֹּא נִטְּלָה תְּרוּמָתוֹ. פְּשִׁיטָא! לָא צְרִיכָא, שֶׁהִקְדִּימוֹ בִּכְרִי.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
It was also taught in the mishna: **And** one does **not** fulfill his obligation **with** *matza* from produce **of** the **first tithe, whose *teruma*,** *teruma* of the tithe, **was not taken.** The Gemara asks: It is **obvious** that this is the case, as this produce may not be eaten. The Gemara answers: **No,** it is **necessary** for the mishna to teach this with regard to a case **where** the Levite **preceded** the priest after the kernels of grain were placed **in a pile** but before *teruma gedola* was separated from the produce.


###### Pesachim 35b:13
[Pesachim 35b:13](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:13)

מַהוּ דְּתֵימָא כְּדַאֲמַר לֵיהּ רַב פָּפָּא לְאַבָּיֵי, קָא מַשְׁמַע לַן כִּדְשַׁנִּי לֵיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara elaborates: **Lest you say, as Rav Pappa said to Abaye,** that in that case too, the Levite should be exempt from the requirement to separate *teruma gedola* from this produce, the *tanna* of the mishna **teaches us, as** Abaye **responded** to Rav Pappa, that there is a difference between a case when the grain was on the stalks and when it was collected in a pile. Therefore, one may not eat this produce before separating *teruma gedola* from it.


###### Pesachim 35b:14
[Pesachim 35b:14](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:14)

וְלֹא בְּמַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי וְהֶקְדֵּשׁ שֶׁלֹּא נִפְדּוּ וְכוּ׳. פְּשִׁיטָא!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
It was further taught in the mishna: **And** one does **not** fulfill his obligation to eat *matza* **with second-tithe** produce **or consecrated** grain **that was not redeemed.** The Gemara asks: Isn’t that, too, **obvious,** as it is prohibited to eat these foods?


###### Pesachim 35b:15
[Pesachim 35b:15](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:15)

לְעוֹלָם דְּנִפְדּוּ, וּמַאי לֹא נִפְדּוּ — שֶׁלֹּא נִפְדּוּ כְּהִלְכָתָן: מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי שֶׁפְּדָאוֹ עַל גַּב אֲסִימוֹן, דְּרַחֲמָנָא אָמַר: ״וְצַרְתָּ הַכֶּסֶף״ — דָּבָר שֶׁיֵּשׁ לוֹ צוּרָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara answers: **Actually,** this is speaking of a case **where they were redeemed, and what** is the meaning of the expression: **They were not redeemed?** It means **that they were not redeemed properly,** e.g., **second-tithe** grain that **was redeemed with an unminted coin [*asimon*]. As the Merciful One says** with regard to the redemption of the second tithe: “And you shall turn it into money, and bind up the money in your hand, and go to the place which the Lord your God shall choose” (Deuteronomy 14:25). The phrase **“and bind up [*ve’tzarta*] the money”** indicates that the produce must be exchanged for **an object that has a form [*tzura*],** not unminted metal.


###### Pesachim 35b:16
[Pesachim 35b:16](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:16)

וְהֶקְדֵּשׁ שֶׁחִילְּלוֹ עַל גַּבֵּי קַרְקַע, דְּרַחֲמָנָא אָמַר: ״וְנָתַן הַכֶּסֶף וְקָם לוֹ״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And** with regard to **consecrated** property, we are dealing with a case **where he redeemed it** by exchanging it **for land instead of money, as the Merciful One says: “And he will give** the fifth part of **the money** of your valuation unto it **and it shall be assured to him”** (see Leviticus 27:19). If one redeemed consecrated property with land rather than money, the consecrated status is not transferred to the land.


###### Pesachim 35b:17
[Pesachim 35b:17](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:17)

תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן: יָכוֹל יוֹצֵא אָדָם יְדֵי חוֹבָתוֹ בְּטֶבֶל שֶׁלֹּא נִתְקַן. כׇּל טֶבֶל נָמֵי הָא לֹא נִתְקַן!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The Sages taught:** I **might** have thought that **a person fulfills his obligation** to eat *matza* **with untithed produce that was not amended** with regard to tithes. The Gemara analyzes the apparently redundant phrase **untithed produce that was not amended.** But isn’t **all untithed produce also not amended,** by definition?


###### Pesachim 35b:18
[Pesachim 35b:18](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:18)

אֶלָּא: בְּטֶבֶל שֶׁלֹּא נִתְקַן כׇּל צוֹרְכּוֹ. שֶׁנִּטְּלָה מִמֶּנּוּ תְּרוּמָה גְּדוֹלָה וְלֹא נִטְּלָה מִמֶּנּוּ תְּרוּמַת מַעֲשֵׂר, [מַעֲשֵׂר] רִאשׁוֹן וְלֹא מַעֲשֵׂר שֵׁנִי, וַאֲפִילּוּ מַעְשַׂר עָנִי, מִנַּיִן?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rather,** this *baraita* is referring to **untithed produce that was incompletely amended.** How so? For example, produce **from which *teruma gedola* was taken, but** the ***teruma* of the tithe was not taken from** it. Alternatively, the **first tithe** was separated from the produce, **but not** the **second tithe; or,** it is referring even to grain from which all the tithes were separated, apart from the **poor man’s tithe.** Although no sanctity applies to the poor man’s tithe, which is simply a monetary gift to the poor, until this tithe has been separated the grain remains untithed. **From where** is it derived that these types of grain cannot be used for *matza*?


###### Pesachim 35b:19
[Pesachim 35b:19](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:19)

תַּלְמוּד לוֹמַר: ״לֹא תֹאכַל עָלָיו חָמֵץ״ — מִי שֶׁאִיסּוּרוֹ מִשּׁוּם ״בַּל תֹּאכַל עָלָיו חָמֵץ״, יָצָא זֶה שֶׁאֵין אִיסּוּרוֹ מִשּׁוּם ״בַּל תֹּאכַל חָמֵץ״, אֶלָּא מִשּׁוּם ״בַּל תֹּאכַל טֶבֶל״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The verse states: “You shall not eat leavened bread with it;** seven days you shall eat with it *matza*” (Deuteronomy 16:3). One fulfills his obligation to eat *matza* **with** food **whose prohibition** is solely **due to** the prohibition: **Do not eat leavened bread with it,** if it was not preserved in an unleavened state. This command **excludes this** grain, **which is not prohibited due to** the prohibition: **Do not eat leavened bread, but** rather **due to** the prohibition: **Do not eat untithed produce.**


###### Pesachim 35b:20
[Pesachim 35b:20](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/35b:20)

וְאִיסּוּרָא דְחָמֵץ לְהֵיכָן אֲזַלָא? אָמַר רַב שֵׁשֶׁת: הָא מַנִּי, רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן הִיא, דְּאָמַר: אֵין אִיסּוּר חָל עַל אִיסּוּר. דְּתַנְיָא, רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara expresses surprise at this *baraita*. **And the prohibition of leavened bread, where did it go?** In other words, doesn’t the prohibition: “You shall not eat leavened bread” apply to untithed produce as well? **Rav Sheshet said:** In accordance with **whose** opinion **is this** *baraita*? **It is** in accordance with the opinion of **Rabbi Shimon, who said: One prohibition does not take effect where another prohibition** already exists. No additional prohibitions can apply to an object that is already prohibited, e.g., untithed grain. Consequently, the prohibition of leavened bread does not take effect on untithed produce. **As it was taught** in a *baraita* that **Rabbi Shimon says:**
