Why does the Torah write "ke'Vo'achem el ha'Aretz" and not "Ki Savo" or "Ki Savo'u" like it does everywhere else?
Rashi (citing Kesuvos, 25a): To teach us that, unlike other Mitzvos, 1 which will only take effect after Yisrael conquer the land and distribute it, 2 the Mitzvah of Chalah will take effect immediately upon entry. 3
Kesuvos, 25a: To teach us that the Chiyuv Chalah will only take effect when all of Yisrael enter the land. 4
Ramban: Such as Ma'asros and Terumah.
Fourteen years after entering it. See Rashi.
Only in Eretz Yisrael, but not in Chutz la'Aretz. See Torah Temimah, note 32.
Kesuvos, 25a: Which was not the case when Yisrael returned to the land in the days of Ezra. Consequently, Chalah nowadays is only mi'de'Rabanan, even in Eretz Yisrael. See Torah Temimah, note 33.
What are the implications of the word "asher Ani Meivi eschem Shamah"?
Yerushalmi Chalah, 2:1: It implies that fruit of Eretz Yisrael that is taken to Chutz la'Aretz is Patur from Chalah. 1
See Torah Temimah, note 34.
What are the connotations of ?al Kanfei Bigdeihem??
Targum Yonasan: It means that they should hang ? with five knots ? from the four corners of the garment within three finger-breadths from the edge of the garment.
What is the definition of ?Begadim??
Menachos, 42a: We learn via a Gezeirah Shavah ?Begadim? ?Begadim? from Nig?ei Begadim ? in Tazi?z Vayikra, 13:47 - that here, and wherever the Torah writes ?Begadim? 1 S?tam, it means garments of wool or linen ? exclusively.
