MENACHOS 15 - anonymously dedicated by an Ohev Torah and Marbitz Torah in
Baltimore, Maryland, formerly of Ramat Beit Shemesh, Israel.

1) CAN A "KORBAN TZIBUR" BE DIVIDED? (Cont.)
(a) (Rav Papa): They argue about whether or not the Tzitz is
Meratzeh for food (that Zerikah should permit as if all
the food was Tahor, but it does not permit Tamei food to
be eaten):
1. Chachamim say that the Tzitz is Meratzeh for food,
R. Yehudah says that it is not.
(b) Question #1 (Rav Huna brei d'Rav Noson): (All agree that)
the Tzitz is Meratzeh for Olin (things offered on the
Mizbe'ach), yet they argue about them!
1. (It is known that if a Korban Tzibur cannot be
brought in Taharah, it may be brought in Tum'ah.)
2. (Beraisa - R. Yehudah): If one of the Bazichim
became Tamei, both may be offered in Tum'ah, for a
Korban Tzibur is never divided;
3. Chachamim say, each is offered as it is (we may not
allow the Tahor one to become Tamei.)
(c) Question #2 (Rav Ashi - Beraisa - R. Yehudah): Even if
(the majority of) one Shevet is Tamei and the rest are
Tehorim, all may bring Korban Pesach in Tum'ah, for a
Korban Tzibur is never divided;
1. Korban Pesach does not depend on Ritzuy Tzitz (and
the Tzitz never helps for Tum'as ha'Guf!)
(d) Question #3 (Ravina - Mishnah - R. Yehudah): If one loaf
or Seder became Tamei, both (loaves or Sedarim) are
burned in Beis ha'Sereifah, *for a Korban Tzibur is never
divided*;
1. Chachamim say, the Tamei one is burned, the Tahor
one is eaten.
2. If R. Yehudah argues because he holds that the Tzitz
is not Meratzeh for food, this should be his reason!
(e) (R. Yochanan): Rather, R. Yehudah had a tradition that a
Korban Tzibur is never divided.
2) THE "ZEVACH" IS "MEFAGEL" THE BREAD, NOT VICE-VERSA
(a) (Mishnah): Intent (Chutz li'Zmano) in a Todah is Mefagel
the bread that accompanies it, intent for the bread is
not Mefagel the Todah:
1. If one slaughtered a Todah with intent to eat it
tomorrow, it and the bread are Pigul;
2. If one slaughtered it with intent to eat the bread
tomorrow, the bread is Pigul, the Todah is not.
(b) Intent in the lambs (Shalmei Tzibur) is Mefagel the bread
(Shtei ha'Lechem), intent for the bread is not Mefagel
the lambs:
1. If one slaughtered the lambs with intent to eat them
tomorrow, they and the bread are Pigul;
2. If one slaughtered it with intent to eat the bread
tomorrow, the bread is Pigul, the lambs are not.
(c) (Gemara) Question: What is the reason?
(d) Answer #1: The reason is like Rav Kahana taught:
1. (Rav Kahana): Lachmei Todah are called Todah -
"V'Hikriv Al Zevach *ha'Todah Chalos*" (it would
have been more natural to say 'V'Hikriv Chalos Al
Zevach ha'Todah' - the Torah switched the order in
order to read "ha'Todah Chalos".
2. Question: If so, also intent for the bread should
Mefagel the Todah!
3. Answer: Lachmei Todah are called Todah, but Todah is
not called bread.
(e) Objection: This does not explain why intent in the lambs
is Mefagel its bread - Shtei ha'Lechem are not called
lambs!
(f) Answer #2: Rather, Lachmei Todah are secondary to the
Todah (and Shtei ha'Lechem are secondary to the lambs),
not vice-versa.
(g) The Mishnah must teach both of these:
1. If it only taught Todah, one might have thought that
intent in Lachmei Todah does not Mefagel Todah
because they are not waved with it, but intent for
Shtei ha'Lechem is Mefagel the lambs, for they are
waved together!
2. (If it only taught the lambs, one might have thought
that they are Mefagel Shtei ha'Lechem because they
are waved together, but intent for Todah is not
Mefagel Lachmei Todah, for they are not waved
together.)
(h) Version #1 - Question (R. Elazar): If one slaughtered a
Todah with intent to eat a k'Zayis of it and the bread
tomorrow (half a k'Zayis of each), what is the law?
1. Clearly, it does not Mefagel the Todah - even intent
for a full Shi'ur of bread does not Mefagel the
Todah, all the more so a Shi'ur combined of two
things!
2. The question is, does it Mefagel the bread - do the
intents join?
(i) Answer (Rav): Also in your case, the bread is Pigul, the
Todah is not.
(j) Question: A Kal va'Chomer teaches differently!
1. Version #1 (Rashi): Todah joins (with bread) to make
(something else, i.e. the bread) Pigul, yet it does
not become Pigul - bread does not (join Todah to)
make (the Todah) Pigul, all the more so it does not
become Pigul!
2. Version #2 (Ha'Sar mi'Kutzi, in Shitah (15B [4]):
Bread does not join to make Pigul, yet it becomes
Pigul - Todah joins to make Pigul, all the more so
it becomes Pigul! (End of Version #2)
3. Question: We do not make such Kal va'Chomerim!
15b---------------------------------------15b
i. (Beraisa): A case occurred, Reuven planted (his
own) seeds (of other species) in Shimon's
vineyard; Chachamim forbade what grew from the
seeds, and permitted the vines.
ii. We do not make a Kal va'Chomer (like above) to
say that the vines forbid, yet they do not
become forbidden - the seeds do not forbid, all
the more so they do not become forbidden!
4. Answer: Indeed, we make such Kal va'Chomerim, but
here, the vines were permitted mid'Oraisa:
5. Version #1 (Rashi): The Torah only forbids Kilai
ha'Kerem with (grain or) hemp and Luf (certain
legumes) (for the seeds do not degenerate;
alternatively, they grow on clusters, like grapes;
Rambam - they produce after three years, the same
time that grapes become permitted, after three years
of Orlah);
i. ((Mishnah): If hemp or Luf were planted in a
field, other seeds may not be planted there for
three years, for these plants produce after
three years - some texts omit this.)
6. Version #2 (R. Chayim, in Shitah): Does Kilai
ha'Kerem apply (mid'Oraisa) only with hemp and Luf,
but all other species are mid'Rabanan?! (Surely, the
Mishnah does not mean this, all are mid'Oraisa!)
7. Here, the vines are permitted (mid'Oraisa) because a
person cannot forbid another's property; (end of
Version #2)
i. Chachamim fined to punish (only) Reuven, for he
transgressed.
(k) Question (j) remains, a Kal va'Chomer opposes Rav!
(l) Version #2 - Question (R. Elazar): If one slaughtered the
lambs with intent to eat a k'Zayis of them and the bread
(Shtei ha'Lechem) tomorrow, what is the law?
1. Clearly, it does not Mefagel the lambs - even intent
for a full Shi'ur of bread does not Mefagel the
lambs, all the more so a Shi'ur combined of two
things!
2. The question is, does it Mefagel the bread - do the
intents join?
(m) Answer (Rav): Also in your case, the bread is Pigul, the
lambs are not.
(n) Question: A Kal va'Chomer teaches differently!
1. The lambs (join to) make Pigul, yet they do not
become Pigul - bread does not (join to) make Pigul,
all the more so it does not become Pigul! (Rashi;
Ha'Sar mi'Kutzi - the Kal va'Chomer teaches that the
lambs become Pigul.)
2. Question: The Beraisa (of Kilai ha'Kerem) shows that
we do not make such Kal va'Chomerim!
3. Answer: Indeed, we make such Kal va'Chomerim, but
this case was different, it was only Kilayim
mid'Rabanan (Rashi - the Torah only forbids hemp and
Luf; R. Chayim - because a person cannot forbid
another's property);
i. Chachamim fined to punish (only) Reuven, for he
transgressed.
(o) Question (n) remains, a Kal va'Chomer opposes Rav's
teaching!
(p) Version #1 surely agrees with Version #2 (that Rav would
say that the lambs and Shtei ha'Lechem join to forbid the
bread), but Version #2 (possibly) argues with Version #1:
1. Rav says that the lambs and bread join, for they
must be waved together, but Todah does not join its
bread, for they are not waved together!
(q) Version #3 - R. Aba Zuti - Question (R. Elazar): If one
slaughtered one of the lambs with intent to eat a k'Zayis
of Chaveiro (its colleague) tomorrow, what is the law?
1. Perhaps he refers to the other lamb, it does not
become Pigul;
2. Or, perhaps he refers to the bread, it becomes
Pigul!
(r) Answer (Rav - Mishnah): If one slaughtered one of the
lambs with intent to eat it tomorrow, it is Pigul, the
other lamb is Kosher;
1. If he slaughtered it with intent to eat a k'Zayis of
Chaveiro tomorrow, both of them are Kesherim.
2. This implies that Chaveiro refers to the other lamb!
(s) Rejection: Perhaps the case is, he specified 'to eat a
k'Zayis of the other lamb'.
3) "PIGUL" OF "NESACHIM" AND "LOG METZORA"
(a) (Mishnah - R. Meir): (Intent Chutz li'Zmano in) a Zevach
is Mefagel its Nesachim if the Nesachim were already
Mekudash in a Kli Shares, the Nesachim are not Mefagel
the Zevach:
1. If a Zevach was slaughtered with intent to eat from
it tomorrow, it and its Nesachim are Pigul;
2. If it was slaughtered with intent to offer its
Nesachim tomorrow, the Nesachim are Pigul, the
Zevach is not Pigul.
(b) (Beraisa - R. Meir): Pigul applies to Niskei Behemah,
because the blood permits them to be offered;
1. Chachamim: The Nesachim can be brought 10 days after
the animal (you cannot say that the blood permits
them)!
2. R. Meir: I only discuss when the Nesachim are
brought on the same day.
3. Chachamim (our text, Rashi; Shitah Mekubetzes - the
Gemara asks this question): One can decide to bring
the Nesachim for a different Zevach!
(c) Answer (Rava): R. Meir holds that slaughter is Kove'a
(fixes) Nesachim to be brought with the Zevach (they
cannot be brought for a different Zevach), just like it
is Kove'a Lachmei Todah.
(d) (Beraisa - R. Meir): Pigul applies to the Lug of oil of a
Metzora, because the blood of the Asham permits putting
the oil on the (ear and) Behonos (thumb and toe).
1. Chachamim: The oil can be brought 10 days after the
Asham (you cannot say that the blood permits it)!
2. R. Meir: I only discuss when it is brought with the
Asham.
3. Chachamim (Shitah - the Gemara asks this): The oil
can be brought for a different Asham Metzora!
(e) Answer (Rava): R. Meir holds that slaughter is Kove'a the
oil to be brought with the Asham, just like it is Kove'a
Lachmei Todah.
