1)

(a)This Perek, which discusses the location where the Shechitah of all Zevachim takes place, begins with the Shechitah of Kodshei Kodshim. Which three Korbanos (that fall under the heading of 'Zevachim') comprise Kodshei Kodshim?

(b)Whereabouts in the Azarah are they Shechted?

(c)By which of the three does the Torah specifically write (in Vayikra) "ve'Shachat oso al Yerech ha'Mizbe'ach"?

(d)From where do we then know that the same applies to ...

1. ... the Chatas?

2. ... the Asham?

1)

(a)This Perek, which discusses the location where the Shechitah of all Zevachim takes place, begins with the Shechitah of Kodshei Kodshim. The three Korbanos (that fall under the heading of 'Zevachim') comprise Kodshei Kodshim are - Olah, Chatas and Asham (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)They are Shechted - on the north side of the Azarah.

(c)The Torah specifically writes (in Vayikra) "ve'Shachat oso al Yerech ha'Mizbe'ach" - in connection with the Olah (of the Tamid [See also Tosfos Yom Tov]).

(d)We know that the same applies to ...

1. ... the Chatas - because the Torah writes (in Tzav) that the Chatas is Shechted in the same location as the Olah, and it writes the same there with regard to ...

2. ... the Asham.

2)

(a)Why does the Tana not add that (based on the Pasuk following Shechitah "ve'Lakach mi'Dam ha'Par") the Kabalas ha'Dam also takes place in a K'li Shareis in the north (as it will do shortly)?

(b)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Metzora (in connection with the Asham) "ve'Lakach ha'Kohen mi'Dam ha'Asham ve'Nasan"?

(c)Then why does the Mishnah mention later (in connection with the Ashamos which include the Asham Metzora) that it does?

2)

(a)The Tana does not add that (based on the Pasuk following Shechitah "ve'Lakach mi'Dam ha'Par") the Kabalas ha'Dam also takes place in a K'li Shareis in the north (as it will do shortly by individual Korbanos) - because some of the blood of the Asham Metzora is taken by the Kohen directly from the neck with his hand.

(b)We learn from the Pasuk in Metzora (in connection with the Asham Metzora) "ve'Lakach ha'Kohen mi'Dam ha'Asham ve'Nasan" that - just as the blood is placed (on the ear, the finger and the toe) directly by the Kohen (not using a K'li), so too, should it be taken directly (See Tosfsos Yom Tov).

(c)The Mishnah nevertheless mentions later (in connection with the Ashamos which include the Asham Metzora) that it does - because the rest of the blood the Kohen did in fact receive in a K'li.

3)

(a)The first on the list of Kodshei Kodshim that are Shechted on the north side of the Azarah are the bull and the goat of Yom Kipur. On which three location is their blood placed?

(b)Seeing as the Torah writes "Tzafon" with regards to Olah, why does the Tana nevertheless begin with the Korban Chatas?

(c)And why does he begin specifically with the Inner Chata'os?

(d)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Vayikra "ve'Shachat es ha'Chatas bi'Mekom ha'Olah" (which is otherwise superfluous)?

3)

(a)The first on the list of Kodshei Kodshim which are Shechted on the north side of the Azarah are the bull and the goat of Yom Kipur, whose blood is placed - in the Kodesh Kodshim between the poles of the Aron, in the Heichal towards the Paroches and on the Mizbe'ach ha'Zahav (as the Torah specifically writes in Acharei Mos [See also Tosfos Yom Tov]).

(b)Despite the fact that the Torah writes "Tzafon" with regards to Olah, the Tana nevertheless begins with the Korban Chatas - because what is learned from a D'rashah is more precious in his eyes.

(c)And he begins specifically with the Inner Chata'os - because their blood is placed in the Kodesh Kodshim.

(d)We learn from the Pasuk in Vayikra "ve'Shachat es ha'Chatas bi'Mekom ha'Olah" (which is otherwise superfluous) that - the Chata'os ha'Penemiyos must also be Shechted on the north side of the Azarah.

4)

(a)What if the Kohen Gadol omitted one of the above Matanos on Yom Kipur?

(b)How do we learn it from the Pasuk in Vayikra (in connection with the Par He'elam Davar "ve'Asah le'Par ka'asher Asah le'Par ha'Chatas, kein Ye'aseh lo"?

(c)To which Par does "ve'Asah le'Par" then refer?

4)

(a)If the Kohen Gadol omitted one of the above Matanos on Yom Kipur - the Avodah is Pasul.

(b)We learn it from the Pasuk in Vayikra (in connection with the Par He'elam Davar "ve'Asah le'Par ka'asher Asah le'Par ha'Chatas, kein Ye'aseh lo" - which is otherwise superfluous (as we already learned in the fourth Perek).

(c)"ve'Asah le'Par" therefore refers - the Par of Yom Kipur.

5)

(a)Where does the Kohen Gadol then pour the remaining blood?

(b)What if he fails to do so?

(c)How do we learn this from the Pasuk (that is written prior to the pouring out of the remaining blood) "ve'Chilah mi'Kaper es ha'Kodesh"?

5)

(a)The Kohen Gadol then pours the remaining blood - on to the western Y'sod of the Mizbe'ach ha'Olah (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)If he fails to do so - the Avodah is nevertheless Kasher.

(c)We learn this from the Pasuk (that is written prior to the pouring out of the remaining blood) "ve'Chilah mi'Kaper es ha'Kodesh" - because it implies that the Kaparah is complete already at that stage.

6)

(a)Next on the list of Kodshei Kodshim are Parim ha'Nisrafim and Se'irim ha'Nisrafim (which we discussed partially in the previous Perek). What does the 'Se'irim ha'Nisrafim' refer to?

(b)Why are both of these referred to as 'ha'Nisrafim'?

(c)They too are Shechted and their blood is received in a K'li Shareis, on the north side of the Azarah. What is the difference between the placing of their blood and that of the Par ve'Sa'ir shel Yom ha'Kipurim?

6)

(a)Next on the list of Kodshei Kodshim are Parim ha'Nisrafim and Se'irim ha'Nisrafim (which we discussed partially in the previous Perek). The 'Se'irim ha'Nisrafim' refers to the Se'irei Avodah-Zarah brought by the Tzibur (See Tosfos Yom Tov), which are compared to the Parim ha'Nisrafim (as we learned above).

(b)Both of these are referred to as 'ha'Nisrafim' - because the Basar, instead of being eaten by the Kohanim, is burned outside Yerushalayim.

(c)They too are Shechted and their blood is received in a K'li Shareis, on the north side of the Azarah. The difference between the placing of their blood and that of the Par ve'Sa'ir shel Yom ha'Kipurim is that - it is sprinkled towards the Paroches and on the Mizbe'ach ha'Zahav, but not between the poles of the Aron (as the latter is).

7)

(a)What happens to the remaining blood?

(b)If it is not, Bedi'eved they too, are Kasher. Their bodies and the bodies of the Par ve'Sa'ir shel Yom ha'Kipurim are burned in the Beis ha'Deshen. What is the Beis ha'Deshen?

7)

(a)The remaining blood in this case too, is poured out on to the western Y'sod of the Mibe'ach ha'Olah.

(b)If it is not, Bedi'eved they too, are Kasher. Their bodies and the bodies of the Par ve'Sa'ir shel Yom ha'Kipurim are burned in the Beis ha'Deshen - an area outside Yerushalayim where the ashes from the Mizbe'ach ha'Olah are deposited (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

Mishnah 3
Hear the Mishnah

8)

(a)The Mishnah now discusses 'Chatos ha'Tzibur ve'ha'Yachid'. What are the Chatos ha'Tzibur?

(b)Like the previous set of Korbanos, they are Shechted and their blood is received in a K'li Shareis, on the north side of the Azarah. How many Matanos does the Kohen sprinkle on the Mizbe'ach? On which Mizbe'ach does he sprinkle them?

(c)Whereabouts on the Mizbe'ach does he sprinkle the blood?

(d)Where is he standing whilst sprinkling it

8)

(a)The Mishnah now discusses 'Chatos ha'Tzibur - (the goats of Rosh Chodesh and of Yom-Tov) ve'ha'Yachid'.

(b)Like the previous set of Korbanos, they are Shechted and their blood is received in a K'li Shareis, on the north side of the Azarah. The Kohen sprinkles four Matanos on the Mizbe'ach ha'Olah ...

(c)... one on each Keren ...

(d)... whilst he stands on the Sovev (the ledge that skirts the Mizbe'ach half-way up).

9)

(a)Besides what we just explained, how do these Matanos differ from the Matanos of all other Korbanos regarding the manner in which they are sprinkled?

(b)How, in contrast, are the Matanos of other Korbanos performed?

(c)On which side of the Mizbe'ach is the ramp situated?

9)

(a)Besides what we just explained, these Matanos differ from the Matanos of all other Korbanos regarding the manner in which they are sprinkled - inasmuch the Kohen sprinkles the blood with his finger ...

(b)... and not directly from the bowl.

(c)The ramp is situated on the south side of the Mizbe'ach.

10)

(a)What is the size of the four K'ranos on to which the Kohen sprinkles the Matanos?

(b)If, when the Kohen reaches the Sovev, he turns to the right, which Keren will he arrive at first?

(c)Based on what principle does he ...

1. ... turn right from the ramp on to the Sovev?

2. ... sprinkle the blood first on to the south-eastern Keren?

(d)In which order does he then sprinkle the other three Matanos (also known as Haza'os)?

10)

(a)The size of the four K'ranos on to which the Kohen sprinkles the Matanos is - a cubic Amah.

(b)When the Kohen reaches the Sovev, he turns to the right, in which case the first Keren that he arrives at is - the south-eastern one.

(c)Based on ythe principle ...

1. ... that 'One always turns to the right', the Kohen turns right from the ramp on to the Soveiv.

2. ... that 'One never by-passes a Mitzvah', he sprinkles the blood first on to the south-eastern Keren ...

(d)... before sprinkling the remaining Matanos (also known as Haza'os) on the north-east, the north-west and the south western corners (respectfully).

11)

(a)On to which Y'sod does the Kohen pour the remaining blood?

(b)How do we learn this from the remaining blood of the Chata'os ha'Penimiyos?

(c)How do we learn that the latter is poured on to the western Y'sod from the Pasuk in Vayikra " ... asher Pesach Ohel Mo'ed"?

(d)How do we now learn from there that the blood of the Chata'os ha'Chitzoniyos is poured on to the southern Y'sod?

11)

(a)The Kohen pours the remaining blood - on to the southern Y'sod (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)We learn this from the remaining blood of the Chata'os ha'Penimiyos - which are poured on to the western Y'sod, because it is the closest to the point where the Kohen Gadol emerges from the Heichal with the remaining blood ...

(c)... which we learn from the Pasuk in Vayikra " ... asher Pesach Ohel Mo'ed".

(d)And we now learn from there that the blood of the Chata'os ha'Chitzoniyos is poured on to the southern Y'sod - since, by the same token, it is the closest point to where he leaves the ramp after sprinkling the blood.

12)

(a)The Mishnah confines the eating of the Chatas to within the Kela'im. What are the Kela'im?

(b)From which Pasuk in Tzav do we learn it?

(c)What is the equivalent area in the Beis-ha'Mikdash?

(d)From where does the Tana learn that Kodshei Kodshim ...

1. ... must be eaten exclusively by male Kohanim.

2. ... can be eaten for a day and a night?

12)

(a)The Mishnah confines the eating of the Chatas to within the Kela'im - the curtains that surrounded the Azarah in the Mishkan in the desert.

(b)We learn it from the Pasuk in Tzav - "be'Makom Kadosh Te'achel".

(c)The equivalent area in the Beis-ha'Mikdash is - within the walls that surrounded the Azarah.

(d)The Tana learns that Kodshei Kodshim ...

1. ... must be eaten exclusively by male Kohanim - from the Pasuk (in Tzav) which specifically says so with regard to Chatas, Asham and Minchah.

2. ... can be eaten for a day and a night - from the Pasuk (there) which specifically says so by the Korban Todah (See Tosfos Yom Tov), adding the word "Zevach" to include Kodshei Kodshim.

13)

(a)Why does he mention that all Kodshei Kodshim may be eaten however the Kohanim wish?

(b)What do we learn from the Pasuk (ibid.) "Lo Yani'ach mimenu ad Boker"?

(c)Why does the Tana then say 'ad Chatzos'?

13)

(a)He mentions that all Kodshei Kodshim may be eaten however the Kohanim wish - bearing in mind that the Korban Pesach (which is only Kodshim Kalim) must be eaten roasted.

(b)We learn from the Pasuk (ibid.) "Lo Yani'ach mimenu ad Boker" that - the Basar of the Todah and Kodshei Kodshim may be eaten before the morning ...

(c)... and the Tana says 'ad Chatzos, because the Chachamim issued a decree 'to prevent a person from sinning'.

Mishnah 4
Hear the Mishnah

14)

(a)Concerning most issues listed in the Mishnah, the Olah has the same Din as the other Kodshei Kodshim. Why does the Tana see fit to inform us that it is Kodshei Kodashim?

(b)Besides becoming Pasul if it leaves the Azarah and by contact with a T'vul-Yov, what are the two remaining two ramifications of the statement 'ha'Olah Kodshei Kodashim'?

(c)How does the Mishnah know that it is Kodshei Kodshim?

14)

(a)In Concerning most issues listed in the Mishnah, the Olah has the same Din as the other Kodshei Kodshim. The Tana sees fit to inform us that it is Kodshei Kodashim - because unlike the Chatas and the Asham, the Torah does not refer to it as such.

(b)Besides becoming Pasul if it leaves the Azarah and by contact with a T'vul-Yov, the two remaining ramifications of the statement 'ha'Olah Kodshei Kodashim' are a. - that it becomes Pasul by contact with a Mechusar Kipurim and b. - that it is subject to Me'ilah.

(c)The Mishnah knows that it is Kodshei Kodshim - because it is similar to a Chatas and an Asham regarding the location of the Shechitah and the Kabalas ha'Dam.

15)

(a)How many Matanos does the Olah require?

(b)Whereabouts are they sprinkled?

(c)What does 'two that are four' mean?

(d)From which Pasuk (in Vayikra) do we learn that there had to be blood on all four sides of the Mizbe'ach?

15)

(a)The Olah requires - two Matanos that are four ...

(b)... are sprinkled - on the north-east and the south-western corners (See Tosfos Yom Tov) of the Mizbe'ach.

(c)'Two that are four' means that - although the Kohen sprinkles the blood on only two locations, by virtue of the fact that they are diagonally opposite corners, he has actually placed them on all four sides.

(d)We learn that there had to be blood on all four sides of the Mizbe'ach from the word "Saviv" (in the Pasuk in Vayikra "ve'Zarku es ha'Dam al ha'Mizbe'ach Saviv").

16)

(a)Why is the blood sprinkled on the two above corners and not on the north-west and the south-eastern corners?

(b)Does this mean that the southern and the eastern sides do not have a Y'sod at all?

(c)Why do the rest of those two sides not have a Y'sod?

(d)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Vay'chi (in connection with Ya'akov's B'rachah for Binyamin) "ba'Boker Yochal Ad"?

(e)In whose portion is the remaining south-eastern section of the Mizbe'ach and of the Beis-ha'Mikdash built?

16)

(a)The blood is sprinkled on the two above corners and not on the north-west and the south-eastern corners - because the south-western corner does not have a Y'sod.

(b)This does not mean that the southern and the eastern sides do not have a Y'sod at all - but that most of them do not (apart from one Amah on the north-eastern corner and one Amah on the south-western corner).

(c)The rest of those two sides do not have a Y'sod - because they are not in the portion of Binyamin.

(d)We learn from the Pasuk in Vay'chi (in connection with Ya'akov's B'rachah for Binyamin) "ba'Boker Yochal Ad" - (based on Unklus' translation) that the Beis ha'Mikdash must be built in Binyamin's portion (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(e)The remaining south-eastern section of the Mizbe'ach and of the Beis-ha'Mikdash is built - in the portion of Yehudah.

17)

(a)Two of the three requirements that are unique to Olah are Hefshet and Nitu'ach. What are 'Hefshet' and 'Nitu'ach'?

(b)From where do we learn them?

(c)What is the third requirement?

17)

(a)Two of the three requirements that are unique to Olah are 'Hefshet' - stripping, and Nitu'ach - cutting into pieces ...

(b)... as the Torah writes specifically in Vayikra.

(c)The third requirement is that - it must be burned in its entirety on the Mizbe'ach.

1. ... which is brought by someone - who is not sure whether he is Chayav a Chatas or not.

20)

(a)In most regards listed in the Mishnah, the Asham has the same Din as the other Kodshei Kodshim. How is its blood sprinkled?

(c)From where do we know the latter with regard to ...

1. ... the Asham?

2. ... Zivchei Shalmei Tzibur?

(d)In what time period must they be eaten?

20)

(a)In most regards listed in the Mishnah, the Asham has the same Din as the other Kodshei Kodshim. Its blood is sprinkled - from the bowl on the two opposite corners of the Mizbe'ach (like an Olah).

(b)Male Kohanim may eat it - anywhere 'within the hangings of the Azarah'.

(c)We know the latter with regard to ...

1. ... the Asham - from the fact that the Torah writes specifically (in Korach) "be'Kodesh ha'Kodashim Tochlenu" (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

2. ... Zivchei Shalmei Tzibur - because the Pasuk in Emor places it next to the Chatas.

(d)They must be eaten - before the morning after they are brought.

23)

(a)The Mishnah ascribes the same Din to the Muram of the Todah and the ram of the Nazir, as to the rest of the Basar. What does the Muram generally refer to?

(a)Finally, the Mishnah discusses B'chor, Ma'aser and Pesach. To which Ma'aser is it referring?

(b)Besides the fact that all three Korbanos may be Shechted anywhere in the Azarah (like a Shelamim), what else do they have in common?

(c)Whereabouts must the Matanah be placed?

(d)What do we learn (regarding all three above-mentioned Korbanos) with a Gezeirah Shavah "Z'rikah" "Z'rikah" from Olah?

(e)And what do we learn from the fact that the Torah writes in Korach (in connection with B'chor) ...

1. ... "ve'es Damam Tizrok" (by virtue of what it does not write)?

2. ... "Damam" in the plural?

25)

(a)Finally, the Mishnah discusses B'chor - Ma'aser-Beheimah and Pesach.

(b)Besides the fact that all three Korbanos may be Shechted anywhere in the Azarah (like a Shelamim), they also have in common that - they require only one Matanah ...

(c)... which must be placed - on any part of the Mizbe'ach where there is a Y'sod (to preclude most of the south and the east sides, as we explained earlier) ...

(d)... as we learn (regarding all three above-mentioned Korbanos) with a Gezeirah Shavah "Z'rikah" "Z'rikah" from Olah.

(e)And we learn from the fact that the Torah writes in Korach (in connection with B'chor) ...

1. ... "ve'es Damam Tizrok" (by virtue of the fact that it does not write "Saviv") that - it (a B'chor) requires only one Matanah (See Tosfos Yom Tov) ...

2. ... "Damam" in the plural that - the same applies to Ma'aser and Pesach.

26)

(a)What distinction does the Tana draw between B'chor and Ma'aser?

(b)From ...

1. ... which Pasuk in Korach do we learn that a B'chor may be eaten only by Kohanim?

2. ... where do we learn that Ma'aser can be eaten by anybody?

26)

(a)The Tana rules that - whereas B'chor may be eaten only by Kohanim, anybody can eat Ma'aser.

(b)We learn that ...

1. ... a B'chor may be eaten only by Kohanim from the Pasuk in Korach "u'Vesaram Yih'yeh lach".

2. ... Ma'aser can be eaten by anybody - since nowhere do we find that any part of it is given to the Kohen.

27)

(a)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Heveisem Shamah Olosiechem ... ve'es Ma'asroseichem ... u'Vechoros B'karchem ve'Tzonchem"?

(b)How do we know that ...

1. ... the Pasuk is referring also to Ma'aser Beheimah and not just to Ma'aser Sheini?

2. ... they do not need to be eaten in the Azarah (like the Olos that are mentioned in the same Pasuk)?

(c)How long does one have to eat them?

(d)We have already explained how Ma'aser is compared to B'chor. What do we learn from the Pasuk (regarding B'chor) "u'Vesaram Yih'yeh lach ka'Chazeh ha'Tenufah u'che'Shok ha'Terumah"?

27)

(a)We learn from the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Heveisem Shamah Olosiechem ... ve'es Ma'asroseichem ... u'Vechoros B'karchem ve'Tzonchem" that - both Ma'aser Beheimah and B'chor can be eaten anywhere in Yerushalayim.

(b)We know that ...

1. ... the Pasuk is referring also to Ma'aser Beheimah (and not just to Ma'aser Sheini) - because "Ma'asroseichem" is written in the plural.

2. ... they do not need to be eaten in the Azarah (like the Olos that are mentioned in the same Pasuk) - because the Torah does not specify any particular Mechitzah (like it does by Olah [See also Tosfos Yom Tov]).

(c)One has - two days and one night to eat them.

(d)We have already explained how Ma'aser is compared to B'chor. We learn from the Pasuk (regarding B'chor) "u'Vesaram Yih'yeh lach ka'Chazeh ha'Tenufah u'che'Shok ha'Terumah" - that one has two days to eat it (like Chazeh ve'Shok of a Shelamim [See Tosfos Yom Tov]).

(a)Two of the four points listed by the Tana in which the Korban Pesach differs from B'chor and Ma'aser are that it may only eaten at night-time and that it can only be eaten till midnight (See Tosfos Yom Tov DH 'Ela' & 've'Eino Ne'echal ... '). What are the other two?

(b)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Bo "Ish l'fi Ochlo Tachosu al ha'Seh"?

28)

(a)Two of the four points listed by the Tana in which the Korban Pesach differs from B'chor and Ma'aser are that it may only eaten at night-time and that it can only be eaten till midnight (See Tosfos Yom Tov DH 'Ela' & 've'Eino Ne'echal ... '). The other two are that - it may only be eaten by those designated to eat it (before the Shechitah) and that it may only be eaten roasted (See Tosfos Yom Tov DH 'ha'Pesach Eino Ne'echal').

(b)We learn from the Pasuk in Bo "Ish l'fi Ochlo Tachosu al ha'Seh" that - it may only be eaten by those who are designated to eat it (before the Shechitah).
