Is the additional one fifth payment added when redeeming an item that you designated for the beit hamikdash also added to a secondary hekdesh (something you bought with that coin and then want to redeem that item also)? \u00a0The mishna lists minimum amount of money for various laws. \u00a0And 5 laws for which the minimum amount is a pruta<\/em>. \u00a0Levi has a different list of what are the five items and the gemara disucsses why they each differ from each other. \u00a0The mishna lists 5 cases where one needs to add one fifth. \u00a0One of the items if d’mai<\/em> – which is a rabbinic obligation (a case where it is doubtful if trumot<\/em> and maasrot<\/em> were taken). \u00a0The gemara questions why the rabbis would insist that one would add a fifth if one ate d’mai<\/em> – why would it be treated as stringently as a Torah obligation? \u00a0They answer that it is according to rabbi Meir’s approach that the rabbis do make their decrees as strong as the Torah and it is proven from a case of divorce law where Rabbi Meir is stringent.<\/p>\n
