What is the significance of the juxtaposition of "Velakach ha'Kohen ? " to "Veshachat oso bi'Mekom ? "?
Zevachim 45a: It teaches us that the Kabalas ha'Dam too require Tzafon. 1
And the Mekablel too should stand in the north. See Torah Temimah citing Zevachim and note 94.
What are the implications of "Velakach ha'Kohen"?
Zevachim 14a: It implies that the Kohen must take the blood and that if a monkey 1 comes and places it in his hands he must then take other blood in its place.
See Torah Temimah note 93.
Why does the Torah write "mi'Dam ha'Chatas" and not 'mi'Damah'?
Zevachim, 8a: To teach the Kohen to perform the Kabalas ha'Dam for the sake of the Chatas. 1
Why does the Torah insert the word "be'Etzba'o" after mi'Dam ha'Chatas and not before it?
Zevachim, 24a: To teach us that the Nesinas ha'Dam, as well as the Kabalah, must be performed with the right hand. 1
Torah Temimah: Bearing in mind that "Etzba" always means with the right hand.
Venasan al Karnos Mizbach ha'Olah". On how many K'ranos does the Kohen sprinkle the blood.
Zevachim 37b: The Torah writes "Keranos" three times in connection with the Chata'os ha'Chitzanos - once Malei, twice Chaser - to tach us 'three Lechatchilah, one Bedi'eved'. 1
See Torah Temimah note 97.
On which Y'sod does the Kohen pour the blood?
Yoma 59a: The remaining blood of Chata'os Chitzoniyos is poured on to the southern Y'sod 1 - which we learn by comparing his descent from the Mizbe'ach to his exit from the Heichal; just as there the blood is poured on the nearest (the western) Y'sod. So too here, is it poured on the nearest (the southern) Y'sod.
Yoma (Ibid.): and not on the wesaterm Y'sod like the Sheyarei ha'Dam of the Chata'os ha'Penimiyos).
Why does the Torah need to mention that the Kohen sprinkles the blood on the Yesod of the Mizbach ha'Olah"?
Rashbam: To indicate that he did not sprinkle the blood on the Mizbe'ach ha'Penimi, like he did that of the Kohen Mashi'ach and of the Tzibur.
" ? "ve'es Kol Damah Yishpoch ? ". Why does the Torah insert the word "Kol"?
Zevachim 43b: To teach us that if the Kohen receives the blood in four Keilim and sprinkles from each K'li on to one Keren, he must pour the remnant of blood from each of the Keilim on to the Y'sod. 1
But if he sprinkled from one of the Keilim on to all four Keranos, he pours the blood from the other three Keilim into the Amah - the straemtht pssed through the Azarah. See Torah Temimah citing Zevachhim.
Why does the Torah repeat "el Y'sod Mizbach ha'Olah"?
Ramban: It is the way of the Torah to repeat things even though it could have mentioned them briefly. 1
See for example, above, Pasuk 4 - despite that, Chazal do make D'rashos from the repeated words - for 'the Torah of Hashem is complete; It contains nothing extra; nor is there anything missing' (Ramban).
