Mishnah for Bikkurim 1:1

משנה יש מביאין בכורין וקורין. מביאין ולא קורין. ויש שאינן מביאין. אלו שאינן מביאין הנוטע בתוך שלו והבריכו בתוך של יחיד או בתוך של רבים. וכן המבריך מתוך של יחיד או מתוך הרבים לתוך שלו. הנוטע בתוך שלו והמבריך בתו שלו ודרך היחיד ודרך הרבים באמצע הרי זה אינו מביא. רבי יהודה אומר מביא. מאיזה טעם אינו מביא משום שנאמר (שמות כג) ראשית בכורי אדמתך תביא עד שיהו כל הגידולים מאדמתך:

From when may one recite Shema in the evening? From the time the Kohanim go in to eat their Terumah (produce consecrated for priestly consumption). Until the end of the first watch, says Rabbi Eliezer. And the Sages say: Until [astronomical] midnight. Rabban Gamliel says: Until the break of dawn. It once happened that his [Rabban Gamliel’s] sons came from a house of feasting. They said to him: We have not recited Shema. He to them: If dawn has not broken, you are obligated to recite it. And it is not only in this case that they said it! Rather, in all cases where the Sages said "only until midnight," the obligation remains until the break of dawn. [e.g.] Burning the fats and limbs [of the sacrifices, on the Temple altar] — the obligation is until the break of dawn. [e.g.:] All [sacrifices] which may be eaten for one day — the obligation is until the break of dawn. If that is so, why did the Sages say, "until midnight?" To distance a person from transgression.

Mishnah Bikkurim

Regarding terumah and bikkurim:One is liable to death And the [additional] fifth; And they are forbidden to non-priests; And they are the property of the priest; And they are neutralized in a hundred and one parts; And they require the washing of hands; And the setting of the sun. These [laws] apply only to terumah and bikkurim, but not to tithe.

Mishnah Challah

Ben Antigonus brought up firstlings from Babylon, but they did not accept from him. Joseph the priest brought first fruits of wine and oil, but they did not accept from him. He also brought up his sons and members of his household to celebrate Pesah katan in Jerusalem, but they turned him back, so that the thing should not become firmly fixed as an obligation. Ariston brought his first fruits from Apamea and they accepted from him, because they said, one who buys [a field] in Syria is as one who buys [a field] in the outskirts of Jerusalem.
