1)

(a)What does the Mishnah say about the V'lados and the T'muros of a Shelamim?

(b)Having said 'u'Velad V'ladon', why does the Tana need to add 'ad Sof ha'Olam'?

(c)Three of the ramifications of this ruling are that all the animals require Semichah, Nesachim and Tenufah. What is the fourth?

1)

(a)The Mishnah rules that - the V'lados and the T'muros of a Shelamim (and even the V'lados and the V'lad V'lados ad infinitum) have the same Din as the Shelamim themselves (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)In spite of having said 'u'Velad V'ladon', the Tana needs to add 'ad Sof ha'Olam' - to counter Rebbi Eliezer, who rules that even a V'lad Shelamim is not like a Shelamim (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(c)The four ramifications of this ruling are that all the animals require 1. Semichah, 2. Nesachim, 3. Tenufah - and 4. Chazeh ve'Shok (that the chest and the right calf is given to the Kohen).

2)

(a)What does Rebbi Eliezer say about a V'lad Shelamim?

(b)Then what does one do with it?

(c)Why did the Rabbanan issue this decree?

(d)What do the Chachamim say?

2)

(a)Rebbi Eliezer says that - a V'lad Shelamim is not like a Shelamim ...

(b)... and that one places it in the Kipah (a narrow room and lets it die).

(c)The Rabbanan issued this decree - because they suspected that one will delay bringing one's Shelamim until thy have given birth, in order to rear flocks of animals.

(d)The Chachamim say that - one may bring it on the Mizbe'ach (See Tosfos Yom Tov & Tiferes Yisrael).

3)

(a)According to Rebbi Shimon, on what grounds do the Chachamim concede to Rebbi Eliezer that a V'lad V'lad Shelamim and a V'lad V'lad Temurah cannot be brought on the Mizbe'ach?

(b)Like whom is the Halachah?

3)

(a)According to Rebbi Shimon, the Chachamim concede to Rebbi Eliezer that a V'lad V'lad Shelamim and a V'lad V'lad Temurah cannot be brought on the Mizbe'ach - since the owner has already revealed his intention to rear herds of animals.

(b)The Halachah is - like the Tana Kama of Rebbi Eliezer.

4)

(a)What did Rebbi Yehoshua and Rebbi Papayas attest regarding the above Machlokes?

(b)What did Rebbi Papayas attest further with regard to a cow of Shelamim that they ate on Pesach?

(c)Why must 'Chag' refer to Shavu'os and not Succos, as it usually does?

(d)From which Pasuk in Re'ei do we learn the Asei.

4)

(a)Rebbi Yehoshua and Rebbi Papayas attested that - a V'lad Shelamim is brought on the Mizbe'ach.

(b)Rebbi Papayas attested that - they once ate a cow of Shelamim on Pesach - and its baby on Chag ...

(c)... which must refer to Shavu'os (See Tosfos Yom Tov) and not Succos, as it usually does - because although one only transgresses the La'av of Bal Te'acher after three Yamim-Tovim, the Asei comes into effect after one Yom-Tov.

(d)We learn the Asei from the Pasuk in Re'ei - "u'Vasa Shamah ve'Heivesem Shamah".

5)

(a)What does the Mishnah say about ...

1. ... the V'lad and the Temurah and their V'lad V'lad ad infinitum of a Todah?

2. ... the Temurah and V'lad and V'lad V'lad of the Temurah ad infinitum of an Olah?

(b)In what way do the former differ from the Todah itself?

(c)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Tzav "al Lechem Todah"?

(d)What are the three ramifications of the latter (the Temuras Olah)?

5)

(a)The Mishnah rules that ...

1. ... the V'lad and the Temurah and their V'lad V'lad ad infinitum of a Todah - is like the Todah itself.

2. ... the Temurah and V'lad and V'lad V'lad of the Temurah ad infinitum of an Olah - is like the Olah (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)The former differ from the Todah itself in that - they are not accompanied by Lachmei Todah.

(c)We learn from the Pasuk in Tzav "al Lechem Todah" that - only the Todah itself requires bread but not its V'lad or its Temurah.

(d)The three ramifications of the latter (the Temuras Olah) are that - it requires Hefshet (stripping), Nitu'ach (cutting-up into limbs) and Kalil le'Ishim (that the entire animal is brought on the Mizbe'ach.

Mishnah 3

6)

(a)What does the Tana Kama say about someone who designates a female animal as an Olah and it then gives birth to a male?

(b)What sort of Olah does one bring?

(c)What does Rebbi Eliezer say?

(d)How will the Tana Kama reconcile his ruling with the previous one, where the V'lad of the Temurah is brought directly on the Mizbe'ach?

6)

(a)If someone designates a female animal as an Olah and it then gives birth to a male, the Tana Kama rules - 'Yire'eh ad she'Yista'ev ve'Yavi be'Damav Olah ...

(b)... le'Kayitz ha'Mizbe'ach' (an Olas Tzibur that the Kohanim bring in the summer when the Mizbe'ach is not in use).

(c)Rebbi Eliezer (See Tosfos Yom Tov) says that - one brings the baby itself as an Olah (as will be explained in the next Mishnah).

(d)To reconcile his ruling with the previous one, where the V'lad of the Temurah is brought directly on the Mizbe'ach - the Tana Kama will point out that unlike the current case, in the previous case, the initial animal itself is brought as a Korban.

7)

(a)Likewise, in a case where the female animal which he designated as an Asham gave birth to a male, the Tana rules 'Tir'eh ... ve'Yavi be'Damehah Asham'. What does he do with the proceeds if he already brought his Asham?

(b)The Gemara asks why the Din of 'Yir'eh' is necessary, seeing as it is not fit to be brought as an Asham. What does it answer?

(c)What does one do with the baby, according to Rebbi Shimon

(d)Why is that?

7)

(a)Likewise, in a case where the female animal which he designated as an Asham gave birth to a male, the Tana rules 'Tir'eh ... ve'Yavi be'Damehah Asham' (See Tosfos Yom Tov). If he already brought his Asham - then the proceeds go to Nedavah (the box from which the Kohanim took money for Kayitz ha'Mizbe'ach).

(b)The Gemara asks why the Din of 'Yir'eh' is necessary, seeing as it is not fit to be brought as an Asham, and it answers - that since the Chachamim give it a Din of Kedushas Damim, it also has a Din of Kedushas ha'Guf to the extent that it requires a blemish before it can be sold.

(c)According to Rebbi Shimon - the baby can be sold even without a blemish ...

(d)... because - since it is not fit to be brought as an Asham, there is no greater blemish than that!

8)

(a)According to the Tana Kama, the Din V'lad and the V'lad V'lad of a Temuras Asham is 'Yir'eh. What does Rebbi Eliezer say?

(b)What is his reason?

(c)Rebbi Elazar says that with the proceeds one purchases Olos. How does his ruling differ from that of the Tana Kama?

8)

(a)According to the Tana Kama, the Din V'lad and the V'lad V'lad of a Temuras Asham is 'Yir'eh. Rebbi Eliezer says - 'Yamusu' ...

(b)... because he holds that an Asham in this regard, has the same Din as a Chatas.

(c)Rebbi Elazar says that with the proceeds one purchases Olos. His ruling differs from that of the Tana Kama - inasmuch as the Olos according to him are Olos Yachid (on behalf of the owner).

9)

(a)The Tana Kama issues the same ruling in the case of an Asham whose owner died as he did in the previous case. On what principle is this ruling based?

(b)What does ...

1. ... Rebbi Eliezer say?

2. ... Rebbi Elazar say?

(c)What is the Din of a Chatas whose owner died or who brought another Chatas?

(d)What do the Tana Kama, Rebbi Eliezer and Rebbi Elazar therefore say about an Asham whose owner died or who brought another Asham?

9)

(a)The Tana Kama issues the same ruling in the case of an Asham whose owner died as he did in the previous case, based on the principle - 'Kol she'be'Chatas Meisah, be Asham Yir'eh' (See Tosfos Yom Tov DH 'Temuras Asham ... ').

(b)Rebbi ...

1. ... Eliezer rules - 'Yamusu', and Rebbi ...

2. ...Elazar - 'Yavi bi'Demeihen Olos (Yachid [See Tosfos Yom Tov DH 'Rebbi Elazar Omer' & 'Olos'])' - just as they did in the previous case.

(c)A Chatas whose owner died or who brought another Chatas in its place - must die.

(d)The Tana Kama, Rebbi Eliezer and Rebbi Elazar therefore issue their same respective rulings - in the case of an Asham whose owner died or who brought another Asham in its place (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

10)

(a)The Tana now explains the difference between the Tana Kama and Rebbi Elazar in the previous Mishnah. How do they differ with regard to ...

1. ... Semichah on the Korban?

2. ... the Nesachim that accompany it?

(b)And how do they differ assuming the original owner of the Asham is a Kohen?

(c)With regard to the latter ruling, what do we learn from the Pasuk in Parshas Shoftim "L'vad Mimkarav al ha'Avos"?

(d)Like whom is the Halachah regarding the Machlokos in the last two Mishnahs?

10)

(a)The Tana now explains the difference between the Tana Kama and Rebbi Elazar in the previous Mishnah. They differ with regard to ...

1. ... Semichah on the Korban - in that an Olas Yachid requires Semichah (which an Olas Tzibur does not) and that the owner is obligated to bring the ...

2. ... Nesachim that accompany it, whereas the Nesachim of Olos Kayitz ha'Mizbe'ach are purchased by the Tzibur.

(b)And assuming the original owner of the Asham is a Kohen - if they purchase an Olas Yachid, the owner can bring it whenever he wants (even it is not his Mishmar that is serving that week [See Tosfos Yom Tov]), whereas an Olas Kayitz ha'Mizbe'ach must be brought by the Kohanim of the current Mishmar.

(c)With regard to the latter ruling, we learn from the Pasuk in Parshas Shoftim "L'vad Mimkarav al ha'Avos" - that although the Kohanim are not permitted to swap their allotted portions of the Korbanos, they are permitted to swap turns at serving in the Beis-ha'Mikdash (resulting in the formation of the Mishmaros).

(d)The Halachah regarding the Machlokos in the last two Mishnahs is - like the Tana Kama.

Mishnah 5
Hear the Mishnah

11)

(a)What does the Mishnah say about the Temurah of a B'chor and of Ma'aser Beheimah and of its V'lad and V'lad V'lad ad infinitum?

(b)Seeing as they cannot be brought on the Mizbe'ach (See Tiferes Yisrael), on what condition is the owner allowed to eat them?

(c)In what way does the Din of B'chor and Ma'aser differ than that of other animals in the way they are sold?

(d)Why is that?

(e)Who is the owner of ...

1. ... the B'chor?

2. ... the Ma'aser?

11)

(a)The Mishnah rules that the Temurah of a B'chor and of Ma'aser Beheimah and of its V'lad and V'lad V'lad ad infinitum is - like the B'chor and Ma'aser themselves.

(b)Seeing as they cannot be brought on the Mizbe'ach (See Tiferes Yisrael), the owner is allowed to eat them - once they obtain a blemish (and have been redeemed [See Tosfos Yom Tov]).

(c)The Din of B'chor and Ma'aser differs than that of other animals in the way they are sold in that - they cannot be Shechted or weighed in a butchery or weighed on a scale, which other (redeemed) Kodshim can ...

(d)... because, as opposed to other Kodshim, where the benefit goes to Hekdesh, the proceeds of the sale go to the owners themselves (See Tiferes Yisrael, note 39 & 41).

(e)The owner of ...

1. ... the B'chor is - the Kohen (to whom it was given).

2. ... the Ma'aser is - whoever's animal it is, even a Yisrael.

12)

(a)In which other way, besides the fact that, unlike other Kodshim, B'chor and Ma'aser cannot be redeemed, do they differ from other Kodshim?

(b)What reason does Rebbi Shimon give to explain the distinction between other Kodshim and B'chor and Ma'aser?

(c)What if the owner does bring them from Chutz la'Aretz?

12)

(a)Besides the fact that, unlike other Kodshim, B'chor and Ma'aser cannot be redeemed, they differ from other Kodshim inasmuch as - they cannot be brought from animals in Chutz la'Aretz.

(b)The reason Rebbi Shimon gives to explains the distinction between other Kodshim and B'chor and Ma'aser is the fact that - the latter become permitted to eat wherever they are, whereas other Kodshim also need to be redeemed and to take their value to the Beis-ha'Mikdash (in which case it makes more sense to bring the animals themselves to Yerushalayim.

(c)If the owner does bring them from Chutz la'Aretz - then Bedi'eved, as long as they are Tamim (without blemish), they can go on the Mizbe'ach.

13)

(a)Despite the previous ruling in the Mishnah, what is the Din regarding a B'chor or a Ma'aser animal that one brings from Chutz la'Aretz?

(b)What is the source for this regarding ...

1. ... B'chor, based on the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Achalta lifnei Hash-m Elokecha Ma'aser Degancha ... u'Vechoros B'korcha ... "?

2. ... Ma'aser Beheimah?

13)

(a)Despite the previous ruling in the Mishnah - one cannot sacrifice a B'chor or a Ma'aser animal that one brings from Chutz la'Aretz (See Tosfos Yom Tov).

(b)The source for this regarding ...

1. ... B'chor, lies in the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Achalta lifnei Hash-m Elokecha Ma'aser Degancha ... u'Vechoros B'korcha ... " - comparing B'chor to Ma'asar Dagan (which is confined to the produce of Eretz Yisrael).

2. ... Ma'aser Beheimah - is the Torah's comparison of Ma'aser Beheimah to Ma'aser Dagan.
