How does one count the three years of Orlah? When does the second year begin?
Rosh Hashanah, 9a: Provided the tree is planted thirty days before Rosh Hashanah, the second year begins when the first of Tishri arrives. 1
Refer to 19:23:3:1*.
Why does the Torah write here "u'va'Shanah ha'Revi'is" and in the following Pasuk "u'va'Shanah ha'Chamishis?
Rosh Hashanah, 9a: To teach us a. that if one plants a tree forty-five days before Rosh Hashanh, the second year begins on Rosh Hashanah, 1 and b. that both Orlah and Neta R'vai remain Asur until the fifteenth of Shevat - since the Pasuk implies that sometimes Orlah extends into the fourth year, and Neta R'vai into the fifth. 2
What are the implications of "Kol Piryo"?
Yerushalmi Orlah, 1:5: It implies that half-ripe grapes and figs, which are not considered 'P'ri', are exempt from Neta R'vai. 1
See Torah Temimah, note 189
What are the ramifications of "Kodesh ... la'Hashem"?
Rashi (in Beitzah, 5a) and Rashbam: It teaches us that, like Ma'aser Sheini, 1 it (or the money with which one redeems it - Rashi), may be 'eaten' only in Yerushalayim.
Kidushin, 54b: It teaches us that, like Ma'aser Sheini, someone who eats it outside Yerushalayim must pay an extra fifth (even though, like Ma'aser Sheini, it is Mamon Gavohah (Divine property, it is considered his in this regard - Bava Kama, 49b) and that it becomes Asur in the eighth year after the time of Biy'ur. 2
Yerushalmi, Ma'aser Sheini, 5:2): It teaches us that, like Kodesh, one recites Hallel over it and that, like Kodesh, it may not be eaten by an Onein. 3
What are the implications of "Hilulim la'Hashem"?
Rashi and Rashbam: It implies that, taking the fruit to Yerushalayim in order to pay tribute to Hashem is a great praise for Him. 1
B'rachos, 35a: The double Lashon implies a. that someone who wishes to eat it outside Yerushalayim must first redeem it ('Achleih - with a 'Ches' - ve'Hadar Achleih' - with a 'Chaf' 2 and b. that the Din of Neta R'vai is confined to something that requires Shir 3 - wine. 4
B'rachos, 35a: "Hilulim" in the plural implies that the fruit requires a B'rachah both before and after eating it. 5
Targum Yonasan: The double Lashon teaches us a. that taking the fruit to Yerushalayim in order to pay tribute to Hashem is a great praise for Him and b. that one is obligated to redeem it from the Kohen. 6
See Rashbam.
The Yerushalmi in Ma'aser Sheini, 5:2 learns it from the word "Hilulim" by exchanging the 'Hey' with a 'Ches', as if it had written 'Chilulim' (from the Lashon 'Lechalel' - to redeem. See Torah Temimah, note 195.
Which is synonymous with Hallel.
From here R. Akiva learned that one may not eat anything without reciting a B'rachah over it. See Torah Temimah, note 198.
See Na'ar Yonasan.
Why does the Torah not mention the Heter Achilah in the fourth year - See Pasuk 25?
Oznayim la'Torah #1: It supports the opinion of the B'hag, who maintains that Neta R'vai may not be eaten until the fifth year. 1
Oznayim la'Torah #2: We automatically learn the Heter Achilah from the D'rashos on the word "Hilulim" - Refer to 19:24:3:2 & 3.
Oznayim la'Torah: However Tosfos in Rosh Hashanah, 10a DH 'u'Peiros' claims that the B'hag never said this.
To which fruits do Neta Revai apply?
