תלמוד על כתובות 115:7

It was stated⁷⁸Tosephta 5:1, Babli 58a, speaking of a Cohen’s wife. It is to be noted that the complete rules of purity were fully observed for almost 200 years after the destruction of the Temple; cf. Berakhot 1:1, Note 3. If heave cannot be eaten, it has to be given in minute amounts (“1 kernel of grain frees an entire silo”) and be destroyed; no wife can be fed with it.: “Rebbi Ṭarphon says, one gives all heave to her, for heave is found everywhere. Rebbi Aqiba says, half profane [food] and half heave, for women frequently are impure for holy things.⁷⁹Since she is not yet definitively married she can be presumed not to be pregnant; then she is impure every month during her menstrual period.” It was stated: “Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel says, any place, where heave is mentioned, one gives her twice the corresponding amount of profane [food]⁸⁰He agrees with R. Ṭarphon that she can be given all her food as heave but he holds that for her period of impurity she has to be given enough of the heave that she could sell a certain amount to Cohanim and buy profane food. Since there are few buyers, heave can be sold only at a large discount. Babylonian sources (Babli 58a and Tosephta) record a fourth opinion, by R. Jehudah ben Bathyra of Nisibis, that she is given ⅔ of heave and ⅓ in profane food, which should be enough for her total sustenance..
