(b) Permission to derive benefit from it whilst it is burning, is based
initially on two sources:

'Pankacs' is the acronym of?
(b) What are the four stringencies of Terumah over Kodshim, of which
'Machpaz' is the acronym?

Heter to derive benefit from Terumah whilst burning it), why do we preclude
Tamei *Terumah* from "Mimenu", and not Tamei *Kodshim*?
