Published Spring 2002 | Updated August 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eretz Yisroel has the unique privilege of being the recipient of the Ribono Shel Olam\u2019s brachos <\/em>throughout the year. Its agricultural industry continues to grow and flourish. Consumer products from Israel that are exported to the American marketplace include Jaffa oranges, grapefruits, pomelos, clementines, carrots, parsley, Carmel and canned tomatoes, peppers, candies, jams, jellies, olives and pickled products. Industrial products used for manufacturing include tomato sauce, tomato paste, orange oil, lemon oil and spices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides for all the ingredients and processing concerns which confront the kosher consumer, additional kashrus requirements apply to foods grown, produced or imported from Israel. A consumer must be sure that terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i> have been properly separated before eating, and that the fruits do not come from trees that are orla<\/i> or neta revai<\/i> or shemita.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Terumos<\/i> and Ma\u2019asros<\/i>?<\/b> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Terumos<\/i> (literally, separations) and ma\u2019asros<\/i> (literally, a tenth) were compulsory gift portions of grains, fruits and vegetables grown in Eretz Yisroel. Some of the separated tithed foods had to be given to the Kohanim and Leviim, some had to be brought to Yerushalayim for consumption, and some had to be given to the poor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Orla<\/i> and Neta Revai<\/i>?<\/b> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the first three years of a tree\u2019s growth or for the first three years after a tree is replanted, the fruit born of those years are known as orla<\/i> and are not allowed to be eaten or used for any other purpose (assurim b’hana’ah<\/i>). Fruits born the year after orla<\/i> also have a special status and were to be eaten only in Yerushalayim<\/i> unless they were redeemed. These fourth year fruits are known halachically as neta revai<\/i>. These restrictions are still maintained today. Detailed maps of thousands of Israeli orchards are kept so that the trees can be monitored in order that orla<\/i> and neta revai<\/i> fruits will not be consumed in error. Orla<\/i> is also applicable in the Diaspora, however the halacha states that one must know that this fruit that was grown outside Eretz Yisroel is definitely orla<\/i>. If one is in doubt, this fruit is permitted.1<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In spite of the fact that we do not have a Beis Hamikdash today, or that we, as a nation, are not fully settled in Eretz Yisroel, one of the most critical mitzvos hatluyos ba\u2019aretz<\/i>, the special mitzvos of Eretz Yisroel that our Chachamim<\/i> (Sages) have instituted and implemented in our days, is the requirement that the kosher consumer, both in Eretz Yisroel and in the Diaspora, remove the proper required terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i> before eating the grains, fruits and vegetables grown and produced in Eretz Yisroel and combined into other manufactured products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Has to Be Separated?<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the six-year cycle prior to shemita<\/i>, the year of the Biblically ordained agricultural rest, the following is separated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25baTeruma Gedola<\/i><\/b> – the portion given to the kohanim<\/i>, the priests. Due to terumos<\/i>\u2019 sanctified nature, the Kohen<\/i> could only eat teruma<\/i> in a state of tahara<\/i>, purity. Since the kohanim<\/i> are in a state of tuma<\/i>, impurity, today, the teruma<\/i> remains uneaten and is to be discarded properly by wrapping the food in plastic before throwing it away. According to Torah<\/i> law, one fulfills his teruma<\/i> obligation with even a small amount of food separation.
\u25baMa\u2019aser Rishon<\/i><\/b> – the first tithe that was separated and given to the Leviim<\/i>. Ma\u2019aser rishon<\/i> does not carry the same sanctity as teruma<\/i>, and can be eaten by everyone. Even though there is some uncertainty regarding bona fide Levitical lineages, we are still obligated to verbally separate the ma\u2019aser<\/i>. If ma\u2019aser<\/i> was never separated, then this food has a status of tevel<\/i>, unseparated, which is forbidden to be eaten. Once separated, a Yisroel<\/i> may eat this ma\u2019aser<\/i>. We did not give the ma\u2019aser<\/i> to a Levi<\/i> unless we were certain that the ma\u2019aser<\/i> was never given.
\u25baTerumas Ma\u2019aser<\/i><\/b> – from the separated ma\u2019aser<\/i> rishon<\/i> donation, the Levi<\/i> was obligated to donate 1\/10 of the gross ma\u2019aser<\/i> to the Kohen<\/i>. This gift, called terumas<\/i> ma\u2019aser<\/i>, has the same degree of kedusha<\/i> (sanctity) as teruma<\/i>. According to Torah law, we have been given an exact amount of donation which is 1\/10 of the ma\u2019aser<\/i>, or approximately 1\/100 of the total product. If terumas<\/i> ma\u2019aser<\/i> was not separated, then the ma\u2019aser<\/i> rishon<\/i> is considered tevel<\/i> and would be forbidden to be eaten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, two other tithes alternated through the six-year Sabbatical cycle:

\u25baMa\u2019aser Sheini <\/i><\/b>– the second tithe separated on produce harvested in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th years of the Sabbatical cycle. This tithed portion was brought to Jerusalem to be eaten. If the owner of the ma\u2019aser<\/i> sheini<\/i> lived too far away from Jerusalem to carry the actual produce, he was permitted to transfer the kedusha<\/i>, sanctity of the ma\u2019aser<\/i> sheini<\/i> onto money. This money was brought either by himself or by other Jewish pilgrims to Jerusalem to purchase food and drink during their stay in Jerusalem. Since we have a halachic<\/i> provision permitting the transfer of kedushas<\/i> ma\u2019aser<\/i> sheini<\/i> onto coinage, we follow the same procedures today, transferring the sanctity of ma\u2019aser<\/i> sheini<\/i> onto coins. Once the ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> is transferred, the coins are disposed of in an appropriate manner.
\u25baMa\u2019aser Oni <\/i><\/b>– on the third and sixth years this tithe was substituted for the ma\u2019aser sheini <\/i>separation, and was given to the poor. Today, that separation must be donated to them as well, if one is certain that this product never had ma\u2019aser<\/i> oni<\/i> separated. If one is in doubt about the separation of ma\u2019aser oni<\/i>, one is still obligated to separate this ma\u2019aser<\/i> but need not give it to the poor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is one last, special tithe offered in a tree’s fourth year of growth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25baNeta Revai<\/i><\/b> – is a category of special separation not related to the shemita<\/i> cycle, but linked to the growth cycle of fruit trees. When a tree reached its fourth year of growth, the fruits were brought to Yerushalayim<\/i>\u2013much like ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i>. The procedure governing the transfer of revai<\/i> onto coins is similar to ma\u2019aser sheini.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary of the Halachos<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Today, the pertinent hafrashos<\/i> (separation amounts) are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Teruma Gedola<\/b><\/i> – <\/i>a small amount, to be discarded properly by wrapping in plastic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ma\u2019aser Rishon<\/b><\/i> – <\/i>1\/10 of the total after teruma<\/i> has been given (stipulated, not physically separated).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Terumas Ma\u2019aser<\/b><\/i> – <\/i>1\/10 of the ma\u2019aser<\/i>, i.e. approximately 1\/100 of the total products, to be separated and discarded in the same manner as teruma gedola<\/i>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ma\u2019aser Shaini<\/b> – <\/i>1\/10 of the remaining product whose kedusha<\/i> can be transferred onto a coin which should be specifically set aside for ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> transfer. One\u2019s separated piece of food needs to be at least a peruta\u2019s<\/i> (about five cents) worth of food for the transfer to work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ma\u2019aser Oni<\/b><\/i> – <\/i>1\/10 of the remaining product in the third and sixth year of the cycle when ma\u2019aser shaini<\/i> is not given.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Frequently Asked Questions<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Is there a way to separate ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> if the piece of food separated is worth less than a peruta<\/i>?<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Yes! This separation can be accomplished if the person is in possession of, or has permission to use, a peruta chamura<\/i>. A peruta chamura<\/i> is a coin that is vested with the power of accepting additional ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> separations of products worth less than a peruta<\/i>. In order to vest a coin with the power of peruta chamura<\/i>, one must take a regular coin and either Eretz Yisroel grown grapes, olives, or one of the five types of grain (barley, rye, wheat, oat, or spelt) from which one knows for sure that ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> has never been previously separated. After the first separation, the coin has been vested with the power of accepting additional separations up to the amount of the coin\u2019s value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What products would this peruta chamura<\/i> be used for?<\/b> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Any finished products such as candy bars, baked goods, prepared foods, or produce such as an almond, that contain ma\u2019asros<\/i> which are worth less than a peruta<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How many times can a coin containing the peruta chamura<\/i> be used?<\/b> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    One must realize that the peruta chamura\u2019s<\/i> value fluctuates with the price of silver. The halacha states that a peruta<\/i> is worth the value of pure silver which is the size of a half kernel of barley. Today, the price of silver is very depressed, so that the value of a peruta<\/i> is worth less than a nickel. However, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein zt”l<\/em> ruled that to be considered a peruta<\/i>, the coin must have purchasing power. The smallest coin that fulfills this requirement is a dime. Therefore, if you make a peruta chamura<\/i> with a dollar coin, you will be able to use that coin for nine additional hafrashos (<\/i>separation). You have vested the first dime’s worth with the kedusha<\/i> of the peruta chamura<\/i> and you will be able to use the coin for nine additional hafrashos<\/i> until you have used up the whole dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What can be done once the coin is filled?<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If a regular dime is used it can be discarded. If one made a peruta chamura <\/i>with a dollar coin, a dime can be placed next to the dollar coin containing the peruta chamura<\/i>, and the owner can verbally transfer the kedusha<\/i> of the nine additional separations from the dollar to the dime. The dime is then discarded and the peruta chamura<\/i> can be reused for further hafrashos<\/i>. Important: When one verbally makes the transfer, one must say that the peruta chamura<\/i> is not being transferred, and only the nine additional hafrashos<\/i>, separations, are being transferred to the regular dime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In a multi-ingredient product (i.e. candy bar), how many separations are transferred onto the peruta<\/i>?<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    One per each ingredient of the candy bar. All hafrashos<\/i> can be done at the same time. Note: If it comes with a reliable hechsher<\/i>, terumos<\/i> and ma’asros<\/i> have already been separated. If it doesn’t have a reliable hechsher<\/i>, there may be kashrus concerns besides terumos<\/i> and ma’asros<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Who is permitted to take off terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i>?<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i> can only be taken by a Yehudi<\/i> above Bar\/Bas Mitzvah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Can terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i> be taken off on Shabbos<\/i> and Yom Tov<\/i>?<\/b> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Procedure for Separating Terumos<\/i> and Ma\u2019asros<\/i> <\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The following procedure may be used:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. This document should be posted in a conspicuous place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. The coin (a dime or more) that you are using for the separation must be in front of you (for the ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Break or cut off more than one hundredth of the food and set it aside from the rest (for teruma<\/i> and terumas<\/i> ma\u2019aser<\/i>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Say the following (either in Hebrew or English):

      \"\"

      Transliterated<\/strong>: Yoser m’echad mi’me’ah sheyeish kan harei hu teruma gedola b’tzad tzefono.* Oso echad memeah sheyaish kaan ve’od tisha chalakim k’moso b’tzad tzefono shel hapairos* harei hu ma’aser rishon. Oso echad memeah sheasisiv ma’aser rishon osuy terumas ma’aser,* uma’aser shaini b’dromo,* u’mchulal hu v’chumsho al peruta b’matbayah sh’yichidite lechelul ma’aser shaini v’revai. V’im tzorich ma’aser oni y’hei ma’aser oni b’dromo. Im hu revai y’hei mechulal hu v’chumsho al peruta b’matbaiah sh’yichidite l’chilul ma’aser shaini v’revai.<\/i><\/span><\/span> *(If there is a food of more than one type, one should add here: kol min al mino<\/em>.)

      Translated<\/b>:<\/span> (If there is a food of one type that requires separation) Whatever is MORE than one hundredth of this food shall be teruma<\/i> on the north side of the piece which I have set aside.* The one hundredth which is left in the piece I have set aside plus nine other pieces the same size on the north side of the food* shall be ma\u2019aser rishon<\/i>. That same one hundredth in the piece I set aside which I have made ma\u2019aser<\/i> shall be terumas ma\u2019aser<\/i>.*
      Furthermore, I am proclaiming ma\u2019aser sheini<\/i> to be in effect on the south side of the food,* and I am redeeming it and its fifth on a peruta<\/i> (smallest amount of money recognized by the Torah<\/i> for most purposes) of this coin which I have in front of me. If this food needs ma\u2019aser oni<\/i>, the ma\u2019aser oni<\/i> shall take effect on the south side of the food.*
      If this food is subject to the laws of neta revai<\/i> then it and its fifth shall be redeemed on a peruta<\/i> of this coin which I have in front of me. *(If there is a food of more than one type, add here: each type of food for its type.)
      <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Wrap the broken or cut-off piece in plastic and discard.
      <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. The coin\u2013a dime or quarter\u2013must eventually be disposed of in such a manner that it will not be used.
      <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. The food may now be eaten. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      If it is difficult to say the long version, the following may be said: All separations and redemptions shall take effect as specified in this STAR-K document outlining the Procedure for Separating Terumos<\/i> and Ma\u2019asros<\/i>, Tithes and Redemptions, which I have in my possession.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      When using this method, only a little over one hundredth of the food will not be permitted to eat; all the rest may be eaten. Even though the tithes constitute over one fifth of the food, one is permitted to eat most of the tithes oneself, even though he may not be a Kohen<\/i> or a Levi<\/i>. Under no circumstances will it suffice merely to break off a piece of the food and throw it away. The aforementioned instructions must be strictly followed. The laws of the tithes apply to everyone, including the Kohen<\/i> and Levi<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Manufactured foods with reliable rabbinic certification coming from Israel have already been subjected to all necessary tithe taking. One may eat them without hesitation. A STAR-K symbol, and all other reliable American certifications on an Israeli product, indicates that all terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i> have been separated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Editor’s Note<\/span>: Due to the difficult economic situation in Israel, consumers are urged to purchase goods produced and manufactured in Israel. Unfortunately, kosher consumers are often reluctant to purchase food items from Israel due to the confusion regarding the separation of terumos<\/i> and ma\u2019asros<\/i>. Hopefully, this article will help kosher consumers better understand and implement these procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
