Jerusalem Talmud Maasrot
In the Babli (Nedarim 44b, Baba Qama 28a,94a, Temurah 6a, Ḥulin 134b, Niddah 51a), a similar principle is established using the grape harvest as an example. The entire argument disregards the opinion of R. Yose [Peah6:1 (fol. 19b), Demay 3:2 (fol. 23b), Nedarim 4:10 (fol. 38d)] who rejects the concept of ownerless property and holds that the owner has full responsibility for his abandoned property until it is taken up and acquired by another person.. What is the difference between standing grain and ears of grain? Standing grain, if he illegally gave heave before he declared it ownerless, that is not heave. Ears, if he illegally gave heave before he declared them ownerless, that is heave. Rav Ḥinena in the name of Rav Ḥisda, the same applies to a dedicated crop19As indicated below, a crop which is Temple property is exempt from heave and tithes, as well as from the gifts to the poor. Rav Ḥisda wants to extend this exemption to standing grain which was dedicated to the Temple and redeemed while standing. In that case, there certainly is no exemption from the gifts to the poor, Peah Mishnah 4:5.. The words of the rabbis disagree, since Rebbi Joḥanan said in the name of Rebbi Yannai20Terumot 1:5 (fol. 40d), Ḥallah1:3 (fol. 57c), Nedarim 4:10 (fol. 38d); as tannaïtic statement Sifry Deut. 109.: (Deut. 14:29) “The Levite shall come, because he has neither part nor inheritance with you.” You are obliged to give him from what you have but he has not. This excludes gleanings for which your and his hands are equal. Gleanings, forgotten sheaves, peah, and abandoned property are all equal. Rebbi Joḥanan said, the company did ask: But dedications, where your and his hands are not equal, are treated21By Rav Ḥisda. One continues to show that Rav Ḥisda’s statement is wrong. as if your and his hands were equal. Said Rebbi Ila, what are we talking about? If the heap was made when it was ownerless or dedicated, the Torah said (Deut. 18:4) “the first of your grain”, not the ownerless, “the first of your grain”, not Temple property. But we must be talking about ears that he declared ownerless and of which he retook possession. If they were ownerless, he would be free, if dedicated, he would be obligated. If they were ownerless, he would be free, since Rebbi Joḥanan said in the name of Rebbi Yannai: (Deut. 14:29) “The Levite shall come, because he has neither part nor inheritance with you.” You are obligated to give him from what you have but he has not. This excludes gleanings for which your and his hands are equal. If dedicated, he would be obligated, from the following22Mishnah Peah 4:5.: “If somebody dedicated standing produce and redeemed it standing, it is obligated.” What is the difference between ownerless and dedicated? Ownerless [property] is outside the power of everybody, dedicated [property] is not outside the power of the Temple treasurer. Rebbi Abin said, it did not even go outside the power of its owners since he must say to him you redeem first23The prior owner of dedicated property retains the right of first refusal when the Temple wants to sell the property (Sifra Beḥuqotay Pereq10)..
