FOOTNOTES:
==========
(1) See Insights to 70a, regarding whether these laws also apply to a man who is an Arel because his brothers died as a result of Milah, or whether they apply only to one who deliberately transgressed the Mitzvah of Milah. Regarding the status of a boy who did not have Milah because he was less than eight days old, the Gemara (71a) is in doubt whether he is considered an Arel or not. TOSFOS (70a, DH ha'Arel) cites a Yerushalmi that concludes that he is *not* considered an Arel.
(2) According to Rebbi Elazar, this prohibition is derived from a Gezeirah Shavah of "Toshav v'Sachir" that is written with regard to the Korban Pesach. According to Rebbi Akiva, an Arel is compared to a Tamei in the verse, "Ish Ish." This teaches that just like a Tamei may not eat Terumah, so, too, an Arel may not eat Terumah.
(3) An Arel is permitted, though, to eat Matzah and Maror (71a). Regarding the Korban Pesach, not only if *he* is an Arel is he prevented from eating the Pesach, he is prevented from eating it even if he has a son or servant who is an Arel. (However, his son or servant who is an Arel does not prevent him from eating the Pesach when he was *unable* to circumcise the child or servant (71a; Ritva 70a), even according to those who maintain (footnote #1) that when *he* is unable to circumcise himself it prevents him from eating the Pesach.
(4) This is what RASHI (72b, DH Lo Lishtamit) writes. It is not clear whether this logic prohibits an Arel to do Haza'ah only according to Rebbi Akiva, or even according to the Rabanan who argue with Rebbi Akiva and do not compare an Arel to a Tamei (footnote #2). See ARUCH LA'NER to 74a, and Insights there.
(5) This is the teaching of Rebbi Yitzchak. (Some deduce from the wording of the Gemara that according to Rebbi Akiva, who compares an Arel to a Tamei, it is also clear that an Arel is Asur to eat Ma'aser Sheni; see Aruch la'Ner cited in previous footnote, but see RASHI DH Tana d'Vei Rebbi Akiva, who seems to learn otherwise.)
(6) According to Rebbi Meir, just like Ma'aser Rishon is as stringent as Terumah as far as being Asur to a Zar (a non-Levi and non-Kohen; RASHI 86a DH Michlal), so, too, it is as stringent as Terumah as far as being Asur to an Arel, like Terumah.
