A few more questions are asked regarding conflicts or complications with laws of precedence. Can one offer wine as a gift? If so, does it get offered entirely or just a kmitza of it and the rest the kohanim can eat? Likewise with a wine offering – there is a debate regarding whether or not is can be brought as a voluntary offering. And if it can be, does it get poured into the cups at the top of the latar or does it get burned on the fire. The gemara concludes that this debate connects to the debate between Rabbi Shimon and Rabbi Yehuda (|usually regarding melacha on Shabbat) about whether one is obligated for an act that one intends to do one thing but as a result a prohibition is being performed – even though one is not interested in the result of the prohibition. In this case, if one pours the wine on the altar, one is also putting out the fire on the altar which is prohibited by Torah law – however since it is not the intent, can one do it?

Order of precedence by sacrifices is discussed. Which type of sacrifice comes before the other? Reasons are given in the mishna for why one type would precede another but they are later questioned by the gemara. Also the gemara discusses combinations that not mentioned in the mishna.

Items can only become sanctified in certain types of holy utensils – depending on which type of item it is (liquid in liquid utensils, etc.)? Shmuel limits the relevance of these laws. Broken utensils can’t be fixed and dirty clothing of the kohen can’t be washed because there is “no poverty in a place of affluence (the mikdash)”. The clothes of the kohen are discussed and the fact that they have power to atone for certain sins.

What areas cause even disqualified items to become sanctified? The altar, the ramp, the holy vessels. If items remain at the top of the altar all night, does that prevent them from becoming disqulaified (lina)? What about the airspace of the altar and the ramp?

Today’s shiur is sponsored in memory of ישראל נפתלי בן יהודה וקיילא ז”ל.

What items need to be removed if brought onto the altar? What is the status of items that are connected to the meat but not the meat itself, like bones, hooves, horns, sinews? What items that have fallen of the altar need to be put back on? Does it depend on when they fell off?

Blood from a sin offering is disqualified if brought into the sanctuary. Is the same true for sin offering blood that was meant to be presented in the sanctuary and was brought into the kodesh hakodashim? The sources are brought for the debate between Rabbi Eliezer and Rabbi Shimon about the prohibition being only if the blood was presenting in the sanctuary or even if it was just brought inside. Rabbi Yehuda exempts blood that was accidentally brought into the sanctuary – but would he say that if it was brought intentionally, would it be disqualified only if it was presented or not? The new chapter starts with a debate regarding what disqualified items are sanctified if they are in any case brought on the altar – such that if they were put on the altar, one does not need to remove them. Five different opinions are presented.

There are varying opinions on several issues relating to blood that is meant to be brought on outer altar that is disqualified if it was brought into the sanctuary – from what verse is it derived from, does it apply to all sacrifices, does it apply only if one sprinkled the blood there and not just by walking inside with the blood? If blood of one sin offering is placed in two cups and one is brought outside or one is brought into the sanctuary, is the other cup (that is still in the azara) disqualified?

Rav Ashi’s opinion about Rabbi Eliezer in the mishna in Parah didn’t make sense in light of our mishna and on account of that, Rava explains that our mishna is not referring to bloods mixed together in the same cup but cups of blood that got mixed up with each other and we don’t know which cup is from which type of sacrifice. There is a debate between emoraim about whether the remainder of the bloods need to be spilled into the flat part on the base of the altar or can it be spilled on the side of the altar? Several sources are brought as questions to one of the opinions.
