Jerusalem Talmud Terumot 6.3

English · Heinrich W. Guggenheimer

MISHNAH: Rebbi Eliezer says, one repays from one kind for another kind which is not the same, on condition that he repay with better quality for worse, but Rebbi Aqiba says, one only repays from one kind for its own. Therefore, if one ate green melon of the year before the Sabbatical, he should wait for green melons of the year following the Sabbatical and repay from them. From the verse which Rebbi Eliezer reads to be lenient, from there Rebbi Aqiba is restrictive, since it is said (Lev. 22:14): “He hands over the consecrated food to the Cohen,” anything that may be consecrated, the words of Rebbi Eliezer. But Rebbi Aqiba says, “he hands over the consecrated food to the Cohen,” the consecrated food he himself ate.

HALAKHAH: How is this? If he ate vegetable and repaid a dried fig, a dried fig and repaid dates, a blessing should come to him. If he ate first fruits, what can he repay? If he ate grapes, he repays wine, olives he repays oil. If he ate ḥallah, may he repay with produce not yet one-third ripe since produce not yet one-third ripe is subject to ḥallah? If he ate first fruits, may he repay with what is still connected to the ground since first fruits acquire their status while connected to the ground?

Rabbi Abin in the name of the rabbis from there: This means that one may not repay with produce from outside the Land. Even if you say one may repay, our Mishnah is from before Rebbi permitted the import of vegetables from outside the Land. He mentioned only green melons which are forbidden produce. But not permitted produce, because if you say so, does it not turn out that he buys himself an axe from Sabbatical money?
