For which sin does the goat of the Chatas come to atone?
Rashi (citing Shevu'os 9a): All the Chata'os of the Musafim come to atone for Tum'as Mikdash ve'Kodashav - if someone ate Kodshim or entered the Mishkan or the Beis ha'Mikdash be'Tum'ah..
Why does the Torah insert the (Otherwise superfluous) word ?u?Se?ir Izi Echad le?Chatas??
Bechoros, 17a): To pisqualify a Nidmeh (the child of a lamb that resembles a goat or vice-versa) from being brought as a Musaf-offering. 1
See Torah Temimah, note 44.
Why does the Torah add the word "la'Hashem"?
Rashi #1: Because the Chatas of Rosh Chodesh 1 atones for sins of Tum'ah in which he was not aware of the Tum'ah, neither at the beginning nor at the end, and only Hashem was aware of it. 2
Rashi #2 (citing a Midrash 3 ) and Targum Yonasan: Hakadosh-Baruch-Hu said 'Bring a Kaparah on My behalf because I reduced the size of the moon!' 4
Hadar Zekenim: Because it is the first Chatas [taught in Musafim], it says "la'Hashem" to teach that it must be le'Shem Shamayim - and this extends to all of the other Musasim.
Rashi: And we learn other Chata'os of Musafim from the Musaf of Rosh Chodesh. See Sifsei Chachamim. See Torah Temmah, note 47, who elaborates.
See Torah Temimah, note 45.
Sifsei Chachamim: First Rashi cited a Halachic Midrash, and then a Midrash Agadah.
See Torah Temimah, note 48, who elaborates.
What are the implications of ?al Olas ha?Tamid? - written in connection wih the Sa?ir le?Chatas?
Sifri: Refer to 28:10:3:1**..
Yerushalmi Horayos, 3:4: TThe juxtaposition to the OLas Tamid teaches us that the Sa?ir is brought immediately after the KOrban Tamid ? before the Par of the Musaf. 1
See Torah Temimah, note 49.
?al Olas ha?Tamid ve?Nisko?. Since when does one bring Nesachim together with a Chatas?
Rashi: "ve''Nisko" refers exclusively, to the Olas ha'Tamid and not to the Se'ir Izim Echad le'Chatas.
QUESTIONS ON RASHI
Rashi writes that Hashem said 'Bring a Kaparah for Me for diminishing the moon!' What are the ramifications of this statement?
Da'as Zekenim (on Pasuk 9): a. It is a consolation for the moon for having been diminished, and b. It prevents children from bring stricken with croup - which is prone to occur on Wednesday, the day of the [new] moon when the luminaries were first put in place. 1
