Line 28:

Contemporary practice is to set aside ''[[Terumot|terumah]]'', separate [[Maaser Rishon|first tithe]] (''ma'aser rishon''), separate ''[[Terumat hamaaser|terumat ma'aser]]'', separate either the [[second tithe]] (''ma'aser sheni'') or the poor man's tithe (depending on the year), then (if applicable) redeem the second tithe with a coin.
