Musar for Shabbat 138:4

אמר רב הונא היה מהלך (בדרך או) במדבר ואינו יודע אימתי שבת מונה ששה ימים ומשמר יום אחד חייא בר רב אומר משמר יום אחד ומונה ששה במאי קמיפלגי מר סבר כברייתו של עולם ומר סבר כאדם הראשון מיתיבי היה מהלך בדרך ואינו יודע אימתי שבת משמר יום אחד לששה מאי לאו מונה ששה ומשמר יום אחד לא משמר יום אחד ומונה ששה

Abaye also said: All agree in respect to <i>terumah</i> that one is not liable to [the addition of] a fifth unless he is unaware of its interdict.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If a non-priest eats terumah unwittingly. he must indemnify the priest for its value and add a fifth (Lev. XXII, 14). Abaye states that he must have been unaware of its forbidden nature, i.e., thinking it to be ordinary food. ');"><sup>6</sup></span> 'All agree': who is that? R. Johanan: But that is obvious: when did R. Johanan say [otherwise], where there is the penalty of <i>kareth</i>, but here that there is no penalty of <i>kareth</i>, he did not state [his ruling]? — You might argue: death stands in the place of <i>kareth</i>,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If terumah is knowingly eaten by a non-priest, he is liable to death inflicted by Heaven. ');"><sup>7</sup></span>

Shenei Luchot HaBerit

The latter two questions may be adequately answered by the halachic ruling in Shabbat 69 that a person who is lost in the desert and has lost track of time should observe six days of work and rest on the seventh day, starting his count from the moment he does not remember which day of the week it is. The reasons for this ruling are explained by Kley Chemdah on פרשת כי תשא.
