Halakhah for Kiddushin 56:9
<big><strong>מתני׳</strong></big> רשות הגבוה בכסף ורשות ההדיוט בחזקה אמירתו לגבוה כמסירתו להדיוט:
Now, according to Resh Lakish, who maintains that meshikah is explicitly required by Biblical law: it is well if he agrees with R'Shesheth, who rules [that] produce can effect a barter; then he can explain it as R'Shesheth. But if he holds with R'Nahman, that produce cannot effect a barter, whilst money does not effect a title [at all], how can he explain it?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For, as we have seen, on the original hypothesis either of these is involved.');"><sup>5</sup></span>
Sefer HaChinukh
And our teachers, may God protect them, taught us what is even greater than this with strong and clear proofs: That even one who says to someone who is eligible to inherit him, "My properties are yours; and after you, to be consecrated property (hekdesh)," or even if he said, "and from now, after you, to be consecrated," the heir acquires the properties and he may sell them or do with them as he desires; and [the one in charge of] consecrated property does not have the power to extract them from the hand of the purchaser or the recipient of the gift for the reason that we wrote. And once the bequeather said to his heir, "My properties are yours," [the heir] acquires the properties, and it is no longer in his hand to consecrate them. Rather, it is like he consecrates the property of others. And regarding what there is to analyze in this matter that at the beginning of the analysis seems difficult - such as that which they, may their memory be blessed, said (Kiddushin 28b), "his statement for consecrated property is like delivery for regular property," and other things - we have already discussed them back and forth, and have come to precise understandings about all of them, such that the matter has come up clarified as we have written. The matter would be too long if I came to write it all and it is not the work of my book. But if you will merit, my son, and cast your net upon the sea of the Gemara, all of it will come up to you. [These] and the rest of the details of the commandment are elucidated in Bava Batra in the chapter [entitled] Yesh Nochalin (see Tur, Choshen Mishpat 276).
