Halakhah for Yevamot 139:22

אלא דפסח מופני האי תושב ושכיר דכתב רחמנא בפסח מאי ניהו אי נימא תושב ושכיר ממש משום דהוה ליה תושב ושכיר איפטר ליה מפסח והא קיימא לן גבי תרומה דלא אכיל

But let 'sojourner' only be mentioned and a 'hired servant' be omitted and one would infer: If one who is acquired for life<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Who is in fact his master's absolute property. ');">⁵⁴</span> is not permitted to eat <i>terumah</i> how much less one who is acquired only for a number of years! If so,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If only the sojourner had been mentioned. ');">⁵⁵</span> it might have been assumed that 'a sojourner' means one who is acquired for a number of years [and that only he may not eat <i>terumah</i>],<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Since he is not his master's absolute possession. ');">⁵⁶</span> but that one who is acquired for life may eat,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Since he is the absolute property of his master. ');">⁵⁷</span> hence the insertion of the expression, 'a hired servant', which explains the meaning of sojourner,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Since a hired servant implies one who is acquired for a period, the other expression cannot refer to the same class of servant, but to one acquired for life. [H], E.V. a sojourner (rt. [H] 'to abide') implies longer service than that of the [H], E.V., hired servant.

Surely, we have it as an established law in regard to <i>terumah</i> that such a person is not permitted to eat it,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Though his master is a priest.
