HAKTARAH OF SE'OR AND DEVASH

(a)

Question: How does R. Yochanan expound "Osam"?

(b)

Answer (Beraisa) Suggestion: Perhaps an individual may bring a Nedavah of Shtei ha'Lechem, and "Motza Sefasecha Tishmor v'Asisa" applies (if he vowed, he must fulfill it)!

1.

Rejection: "Korban Reishis Takrivu (plural)" - the Tzibur brings it, but an individual may not.

2.

Suggestion: An individual does not bring Shtei ha'Lechem Chovah, therefore he cannot bring it for Nedavah. The Tzibur brings it Chovah, perhaps it can bring it Nedavah!

3.

Rejection: "Osam" (we bring only what is obligatory.)

4.

Question: It says we offer Se'or and Devash for "Korban Reishis" (first offerings). What are these?

5.

Answer: Shtei ha'Lechem contain Se'or. (Some) Bikurim are (sweet fruits, which are included in) Devash.

(c)

Question: One may bring Shtei ha'Lechem Nedavah!

1.

(Beraisa) Question: Why must it say both "Chol Se'or" and "v'Chol Devash"?

2.

Answer: Each has a leniency. We could not learn from the Isur of one from the other;

i.

Se'or is totally permitted in the Mikdash. Devash is not;

ii.

One may eat Shirei Menachos with Devash, but one may not ferment them. (end of Beraisa)

3.

Question: When is Se'or totally permitted in the Mikdash?

i.

Suggestion: Shtei ha'Lechem may be offered Nedavah!

(d)

Answer (to Questions (c) and (3)): No, the leniency of Se'or is that it (Shtei ha'Lechem) is accompanied by other Korbanos (Shalmei Tzibur).

(e)

Question Also Devash (Bikurim) is accompanied by other Korbanos!

1.

(Mishnah): Birds on top of the baskets were Olos. They (people bringing Bikurim) gave what they were holding to the Kohanim.

(f)

Answer: The birds are not a necessary part of Bikurim, rather, for decoration.

2)

FORBIDDEN HAKTARAH

(a)

Question (Rami bar Chama): If one offers meat of Chatas ha'Of on the Mizbe'ach, what is the law?

1.

The Torah forbids "Chol... Mimenu... Isheh" - since no part of Chatas ha'Of is Huktar, the Isur does not apply;

2.

Or, the Isur applies to anything called Korban, and this is called Korban?

(b)

Answer (Rav Chisda): The Isur applies to anything called Korban, this is called Korban.

(c)

Tana'im argue about this;

1.

(Beraisa - R. Eliezer): The Torah forbids (Haktaras Shirayim of) Chol she'Mimenu l'Ishim (anything partially Huktar);

2.

R. Akiva says, Haktaras Shirayim of anything called Korban is forbidden.

(d)

Question: What do they argue about?

(e)

Answer #1 (Rav Chisda): They argue about meat of Chatas ha'Of (no part of Chatas ha'Of is Huktar, but it is called Korban.)

(f)

Answer #2 (Rav): They argue about Log Shemen of a Metzora. (No part is Huktar, but it is called Korban.)

1.

(Levi - Beraisa): "Kol Korbanam" includes the Log of oil of a Metzora. (Shitah Mekubetzes deletes this entire line from the text.)

3)

THE SHI'UR OF FORBIDDEN HAKTARAH

(a)

(Beraisa) Question: "Se'or... Lo Saktiru" forbids to be Maktir all of it. What is the source for partial Haktarah? (The entire Beraisa will be explained);

(b)

Answer: It says "Chol (Se'or...)."

(c)

Question: What is the source for Haktarah of a mixture?

(d)

Answer: It says "Ki Chol."

(e)

Question: What does this mean?

(f)

Answer #1 (Abaye): "Se'or...Lo Saktiru" forbids to be Maktir a k'Zayis;

1.

Question: What is the source for half a k'Zayis?

2.

Answer: It says "Chol".

3.

Question: What is the source for Haktarah of a mixture?

4.

Answer: It says "Ki Chol".

(g)

Answer #2 (Rava): "Se'or...Lo Saktiru" forbids to be Maktir a Kometz;

1.

Question: What is the source for half a Kometz?

2.

Answer: It says "Chol".

3.

Question: What is the source for Haktarah of a mixture?

4.

Answer: It says "Ki Chol".

(h)

Question: What do Abaye and Rava argue about?

(i)

Answer: Abaye holds that a Kometz can be less than two k'Zeisim. Therefore, "Chol" teaches that Haktarah can be (half a Kometz, even though this is) less than a k'Zayis;

58b----------------------------------------58b

1.

Rava holds that a Kometz must be at least two k'Zeisim. Haktarah must be at least a k'Zayis. ("Chol" teaches only about half a Kometz.)

(j)

(Rava): If one offered (Tosfos - Se'or and Devash and) a mixture of Se'or and Devash on the Mizbe'ach, he is lashed for Se'or, for Devash, and for a mixture of Se'or and for a mixture of Devash;

(k)

(Abaye): One is not lashed for Lav shebi'Chlalos (a Lav that forbids different things).

(l)

Version #1: He is lashed once (for Se'or and its mixture, and once for Devash and its mixture).

(m)

Version #2: He is not lashed at all, for the Lavim are not specific like the Lav of muzzling (the prototype for lashes).
