MISHNAH: The seeds of heave, as long as they are collected, are forbidden but if they are thrown away they are permitted. And so bones of sacrifices, as long as they are collected, are forbidden but if they are thrown away they are permitted. Coarse bran is permitted; fine bran of new grain is forbidden, of old it is permitted. One treats heave as one treats profane food. If one makes fine flour, one or two qab from a seah, he should not throw away the remainder but put it down in a hidden place. If someone removed heave wheat from a chest, one does not oblige him to sit down and pick out the last grains but he sweeps it as usual and then fills it with profane grain. Similarly, if someone empties an amphora of oil, one does not oblige him to sit down and clean it with his fingers but he treats it as he treats profane vessels. If one pours from pitcher to pitcher one lets drip three drops and then may fill it with profane [wine]. If he turned it and it accumulated, that is heave. How much should heave of the tithe of demay be that he is required to deliver it to a Cohen? An eighth of an eighth.

HALAKHAH: Rebbi Joḥanan, the Mishnah deals with seeds of pears and paradise pears. Rebbi Eleazar said, you can even say the pit of unripe dates if they have not been sucked. But did we not state, “and so bones of sacrifices;” can you say if they have not been sucked? No, about cartilage in wings. Rebbi Abbahu came in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: The Mishnah speaks of cartilage in wings.

“These are the new ones, all the time people regularly mash them. Rebbi Aḥa said, up to thirty days.”

Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: That is its measure. But did we not state: “One produces fine flour from wheat as he wants it, he cleans vegetables as he wants it.” Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: When he reduces it to its heave. Rebbi Jeremiah in the name of Rebbi Ila: Here in years of famine, there in years of plenty.

There, we have stated: “The center parts of water melon and what is cleaned from vegetables of heave, Rebbi Dosa permits to laymen but the Sages forbid.” Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: They taught that only for what is cleaned from vegetables of gardeners. But for what is cleaned from vegetables of private people, even the rabbis will agree. Rebbi Abun asked: Is it not reasonable that this refers only to the Great Heave, but for heave of the tithe torn-off leaves do not count for leaves, neither do torn-off stems for stems?

There, we have stated: “If he turned it and it accumulated, that belongs to the seller.” Rebbi Joḥanan said, there is no “belongs to the seller” but “belongs to the buyer”, as you say here. Rebbi Isaac bar Eleazar said, it is because of abandonment. Is it the same for consecrated food? Rebbi Abbahu came in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: It is the same for consecrated food.

Rebbi Hoshaia said, this was taught only for consecrated food which can be permitted. But of consecrated food which cannot be permitted one has to give back even the most minute amount. Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya asked: That log of oil of the leper, must he give it back or not? If you say he must give it back, and he did not, he transgresses by default. If you say he need not give it back, and he did, he transgresses by excess Rebbi Ḥinena did not say so, but Rebbi Hoshaia said, this was taught only for consecrated food which can be permitted. But of consecrated food which cannot be permitted one has to give back even the most minute amount. That log of oil of the leper belongs to those [consecrated foods] which can be permitted and you say he must give it back? That means, he must give back and if he did not, he transgresses by default.

Rebbi Ḥalaphta ben Shaul stated: A pot in which heave was cooked is cleansed three times with boiling water and that is enough. Rebbi Abba said, one does not learn from this for carcass meat. Rebbi Yose said, I objected before Rebbi Abba: Heave implies a deadly sin, carcass meat is a simple prohibition, and you say so? He said to me, it follows him who says, they accepted tithes voluntarily.

Rebbi Justus bar Shunem asked before Rebbi Mana: We have stated: “If he turned it and it accumulated, that is heave,” and here you say so? He said to him, here through the fire it becomes inedible and disappears.

“ Yeast of heave, the first and second are forbidden, the third is permitted. When has this been said? If he added water. But if he did not add water, even the third is forbidden Yeast of second tithe, the first is forbidden but the second permitted. Rebbi Meïr said, the second by imparting taste.” Rebbi Joḥanan in the name of Rebbi Simeon ben Yoẓadaq, the consecrated is like the accumulated.

“ The clay pot of the sufferer from discharge, the first is impure but the second pure. When has this been said? If he did not put water in it, but if he put water in it even the tenth is impure.”

Rebbi Yudan, the son of Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina’s sister, in the name of Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina: Less than that he puts in his fire. Rebbi Yannai in the name of Rebbi Jehudah: “Solid food corresponding to a cooked easy egg. That means that the volume of an egg is valid in impurity, but pure the minutest amount must be delivered. If it is demay; but if it is certain it must be delivered impure or pure, much or little.”
