Chapter 43

א רב פפא אמר כיסין אלוגין רמא ליה דתנן הלוקח יין מבין הכותים
1 R'Papa said, 'He raised before him a contradiction between the case of the bag and that of loss; for we have learnt:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Dem. VII, 4.');"><sup>1</sup></span> If one has bought wine<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Late on Sabbath Eve or while on the way, thus not being in a position to separate tithe and terumah, The law is exemplified with a quantity of a hundred logs.');"><sup>2</sup></span> from Cutheans,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. Glos.');"><sup>3</sup></span>
ב אומר שני לוגין שאני עתיד להפריש הרי הן תרומה עשרה מעשר ראשון תשעה מעשר שני ומיחל ושותה מיד דברי ר"מ
2 
ג רבי יהודה ורבי יוסי ור"ש אוסרים א"ל סיפא דמתני' באומר לא יפטר כיס זה מן ההקדש
3 he shall declare: Two logs which I shall separate are herewith designated as terumah, ten as first tithe and nine as second tithe, the latter portion is redeemed<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Second tithe has to be consumed in Jerusalem, or redeemed and its equivalent spent in Jerusalem.');"><sup>4</sup></span> and then he may begin to drink at once.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' R. Meir accepts the principle of bererah (v. Glos.) ; i.e., the subsequent actual separation of these taxes will be retrospectively valid in that it will establish that the portion used by the owner was not 'mingled' with tithe or terumah which are prohibited for use.');"><sup>5</sup></span> This is the view of R'Meir, while R'Judah.
ד <br><br><big><strong>הדרן עלך השליח שעשה שליחותו וסליקא לה מסכת מעילה</strong></big><br><br>
4 R'Jose and R'Simeon hold it is prohibited.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For they do not accept the principle of bererah, and as long as no actual separation of the tithe and the terumah has taken place, the wine is considered untithed and is therefore forbidden for use, for of each cup of wine I might say. perhaps this is the one designated as tithe (v. Hul. 14a) . Similarly I should say in the instance of the Mishnah of each coin, perhaps this is the one dedicated to the Temple, in contradiction to R. Akiba's view that the last may be assumed to be the one designated for the Temple.');"><sup>6</sup></span> To this he<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Viz., R. Johanan. ');"><sup>7</sup></span> replied: In the last clause the man's declaration was, 'this bag shall not b spared from a donation to the Temple'.
