Who is allowed to slaughter the animal for a sacrifice? The mishna words it in a way that sounds like it is only post facto allowed – however this contradicts another source which indicates it is permitted ab initio. The mishna also indicated that if an impure person slaughtered. it is allowed, however another source contradicts and seems to indicate it is not allowed. Ula explains that an impure person who even puts a bit of one’s body into the azara of the mikdash it is forbidden. A question is brought from a tannatic source against him and a potential proof is brought. Both are rejected.

If one did have multiple “bad” intents during the sacrificial rites, it is not considered pigul that one would receive karet. Rabbi Yehuda disagrees in a particular case. Rabbi Yochanan and Ilfa disagree as to which case exactly does Rabbi Yehuda disagree. A debate in tmura regarding a similar situation is brought as a comparison.

The mishna discusses the cases of incorrect intention called pigul. Details regarding the skin of the tail is mentioned. Three explanations are brought to explain what the case regarding the tail is referring to. Then the gemara struggles to find a source for why pigul relating to time is disqualified and the person gets punished by karet but if one has intent for the wrong location, it is disqualified but the person doesn’t get karet.

The collection of the blood is discussed. What blood? How was it collected? What happens if it spilled on the floor? Are items that enter the airspace above a vessel considered as if they are already in the vessel? What if the animal becomes blemished after the slaughtering but before the blood is collected in the vessel or before bringing the blood to the altar or pouring the blood?

Various opinions are brought regarding which type of impurity is intended in the mishna when it states that a kohen who is impure and works in the mikdash, his work will be disqualified. The law regarding one who sits during the work (which is also disqualified) is discussed. Why is it disqualified but one who does this is not obligated by death in the hands of God (like a stranger who does get punished by death in the hands of God)?

If one becomes impure, does one also need to redo washing one’s hands and feet? Can one dunk one’s hands and feet in the water or can it only be done by pouring the water? At what time of day does the water need to be sunk into its pit (so as not to become contaminated)? Three different opinions are brought.
