Musar for Shabbat 101:1
לא משום כלאים ולא משום שביעית ולא משום מעשר וניטלין בשבת תיובתא:
on account of kil'ayim,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. Glos. This does not constitute the planting of diverse seeds. ');"><sup>1</sup></span> or the seventh year,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If these are from the sixth year and are placed in the earth in the seventh, they are not subject to the laws of seventh year produce. ');"><sup>2</sup></span>
Shenei Luchot HaBerit
The Talmud frequently states אדם חשוב שאני "different yardsticks apply to important people." (Berachot 19, Shabbat 51, 142 et al.) It is no more than appropriate that people who desire לחזות בנועם ה', באור הגנוז, of which it is said הנסתרות לה' אלוקינו, "to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord," i.e. the original light which has been hidden, of which the Torah says that the "hidden things are G–d's alone," should be judged according to a different scale of values.
