Tractate Temurah (Hebrew: תמורה, literally: "exchange") is a tractate of the Mishnah, Tosefta, and Babylonian Talmud, which is part of the Order of Kodashim. Its main subject is the Biblical prohibition (Leviticus 27:10) against attempting to switch the sanctity of an animal that has been sanctified for the Temple in Jerusalem with another non-sanctified animal.[1] If this is attempted, both animals become sanctified,[2] and the person who attempted the transfer is punished with lashes.[3]
There are many laws regarding items which have been sanctified for Temple use | |
