THE THREE VERSES THAT DISCUSS EATING "TERUMAH" AT SUNDOWN:
* = This verse teaches that sundown is not enough -- Tevilah is also required.
** = This teaches that the thing which is Metaher him (together with Tevilah) is sundown.
***= This teaches that even one who must bring a Korban in order to eat Kodshim (a "Bar Kaparah"), becomes Tahor for Terumah with sundown. (See also Insights to 75a.)

FOOTNOTES:
==========
(1) There is a Machlokes regarding to which Metzora and Zav this verse refers: some say that it refers to a Metzora *Musgar* and a Zav who saw *two* flows (who do not bring a Korban for Kaparah), and "Asher Yithar" refers to sundown. Others say that it refers to a Metzora *Muchlat* and a Zav who saw *three* flows (who *do* bring a Korban for Kaparah), and "Asher Yithar" refers to the Korban. According to this latter view, the verse is discussing specifically what to do before he may eat *Kodshim*.
(2) Throughout the days of Tum'ah and Dam Tohar following the birth she is considered a "Tevulas Yom Aruch." That is, the sundown that permits her to eat Terumah is the sundown after "the *completion* of the days of her Taharah."
(3) Since the Torah is discussing a person who is *not* obligated to bring a Korban in order to become Tahor, "Ad Asher Yithar" must mean sundown (74b).
(4) According to the second answer of the Gemara, it seems that this verse teaches when *Terumah* may be touched. However, TOSFOS proves that it is not from here that we learn that touching Terumah requires He'erev Shemesh (because the verse is referring to touching *Kodesh*). Rather, we learn from this verse that it is logical for a Tamei who is prohibited from eating an item due to its Kedushah, to be prohibited from touching that item as well. Because of this course of logic, we will learn from the verse "b'Mayim Yuva" (row "6)") that *Terumah* may not be touched by a Tevul Yom, and not that *Ma'aser Sheni* may not be touched by a Tevul Yom.
(5) According to the opinion that "Ad Asher Yithar" (row "1)") is also discussing a person who must bring a Korban in order to become Tahor (i.e., he is a "Bar Kaparah") (see footnote #1), two verses are necessary to teach that one must bring the Korban before touching Kodshim: one for Yoledes, and one for Zav. (One could not be learned from the other, as the Gemara explains.)
