Maaser sheni money — spent in Yerushalayim

Water, salt, fruit still on the tree, fruit that can't reach Yerushalayim

Permissivethe maaser is not acquired.
→ the maaser is not acquired
The sale undone — or the seller's money stays holy
Not grown from the ground; on the tree it is like land

Produce bought outside Yerushalayim

Permissivethe money reverts to its place;
By mistake → the money goes back
Restrictivethey go up and are eaten in Yerushalayim.
On purpose → take it up and eat it there

No Mikdash? Let it rot

Restrictivethey are left to rot.
Rabbi Yehoshua (Eduyos 8:6): the holiness remains
Or: no Mizbeach — or no taharah today

Improper Purchases Using Maaser Sheini Money

קְנִיָּה שֶׁלֹּא כָּרָאוּי בְּכֶסֶף מַעֲשֵׂר
הַלּוֹקֵחַ מַיִם,
וּמֶלַח,
וּפֵרוֹת הַמְחֻבָּרִים לַקַּרְקַע,
אוֹ פֵרוֹת שֶׁאֵינָן יְכוֹלִין לְהַגִּיעַ לִירוּשָׁלַיִם,
לֹא קָנָה מַעֲשֵׂר.
הַלּוֹקֵחַ פֵּרוֹת,
שׁוֹגֵג, יַחְזְרוּ דָמִים לִמְקוֹמָן.
מֵזִיד, יָעֳלוּ וְיֵאָכְלוּ בַמָּקוֹם.
וְאִם אֵין מִקְדָּשׁ, יֵרַקְּבוּ.
