The Complete Passuk

רֵאשִׁ֨ית דְּגָֽנְךָ֜ תִּֽירֹשְׁךָ֣ וְיִצְהָרֶ֗ךָ וְרֵאשִׁ֛ית גֵּ֥ז צֹאנְךָ֖ תִּתֶּן־לּֽוֹ׃

The first of your grain, your wine, and your oil, and the first of the fleece of your flock, you shall give to him.

Torah Temimah points to Chullin 137a.

TT lemma: תִּתֵּן לוֹ.

Sefaria — Chullin 137a

Core Text of Chazal

Core Text
תִּתֵּן לוֹ – כׇּל שֶׁהוּא.

English: ‘You shall give to him’ – any amount.

On the daf / in context: No fixed minimum measure is stated in the verse itself for the fleece beyond the flock threshold.

Type of Learning

Derash on quantity (Bavli) — the verse does not fix a precise weight for the fleece gift.

What Is Learned

Once the flock threshold is met, the first fleece is given; the exact amount is determined by custom and later ruling.
