Separated Terumot and Ma'aserot

הגדרה (אנגלית)

The fulfillment of the commandments of separating terumot and ma'aserot. This commandment obligates setting apart a portion from the agricultural yield specifically for the benefit of the priests and the Levites. In terumah, one separates between one-fortieth and one-sixtieth, and in ma'aser, a tenth of the produce.

("Blessed are you, Lord, our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to set aside offerings and tithes" - blessing of offerings and tithes, and so: "And they blessed the Lord - who had put it into the heart of Israel to set aside their offerings and tithes" - Rasi'i Divrei Hayyamim 2:8)
