Mishnah SIX

(ו) אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, שָׁמַעְתִּי שֶׁתְּמוּרַת הַפֶּסַח קְרֵבָה, וּתְמוּרַת הַפֶּסַח אֵינָהּ קְרֵבָה, וְאֵין לִי לְפָרֵשׁ. אָמַר רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא, אֲנִי אֲפָרֵשׁ. הַפֶּסַח שֶׁנִּמְצָא קֹדֶם שְׁחִיטַת הַפֶּסַח, יִרְעֶה עַד שֶׁיִּסְתָּאֵב, וְיִמָּכֵר, וְיִקַּח בְּדָמָיו שְׁלָמִים, וְכֵן תְּמוּרָתוֹ. אַחַר שְׁחִיטַת הַפֶּסַח, קָרֵב שְׁלָמִים, וְכֵן תְּמוּרָתוֹ:

SAID RABI Yehoshua: I've heard that one REPLACEMENT Passover is sacrificed and the other REPLACING Passover is not sacrificed, and I CAN NOT explain it. SAID Rabbi Akiva: I'll explain. PASSOVER that found before the time shechita Passover, let graze until it becomes worthless. It will be sold, and his host MONEY BUY sludge, and the same with to replace it; AFTER shechita Passover time the animal will be brought to as sludge, and the same with to replace it.

EXPLANATION OF THE SIXTH Mishnah

The Torah says (Leviticus 27:10): "And if you still replace one animal to another, you will: and it, and replacing it will be holy." This means that if someone will intend the animal for sacrifice - for example, to sacrifice ol or sludge - and then replace it with some other belonging to his animal-Hulin, saying: "Here, it is - rather than intended for ol victim "or," that's it - the replacement of the intended victim sludge ", the second living creature becomes a saint, the first, too, holiness is not deprived. Now both of them - the shrine.

This Mishnah discusses the case when the animal is intended for the Passover sacrifice, replaced by another, ^ alahicheskaya basis of its - the proposition that "all traces of Passover sacrificed sludge" (that is, animals that were destined for sacrifice Passover, but used were not sacrificed as sludge).

RABI YOGOSHUA SAID: I heard from my teacher that there is one CHANGE Passover - that is, animal-Hulin, at which traded animals for Passover sacrifice - that is sacrificed as sludge, while others REPLACEMENT Passover is not sacrificed; and there is a replacement of the Passover, when the very animal sacrifice, but allow it to graze as long as it does not acquire any physical disability that makes it unsuitable for sacrifice. Then sell it and use the proceeds to acquire an animal that is sacrificed to the slimes. AND I CAN NOT explain it - I do not know what the replacement of Passover is sacrificed, and what - no.

SAID Rabbi Akiva: I'll explain what you say.

PASSOVER that found before the time shechita Passover. We are talking about a situation where a person has lost animals, which are intended for Passover sacrifice, and took another in his stead. But before he had time to kill the animal, the first found, and then, at the time when made shechita Passover, both animals are available. Consequently, one of them the owner has to reject. However Halacha prohibits the use of rejected animal sacrifice for sludge. It remains to let him out to pasture: let it graze until it becomes unfit for use - until he acquires a physical disability, which will make it generally unsuitable for sacrifice. Then it will be sold - because the animal intended for sacrifice and become unfit for it, permitted to redeem for money, and his money - the money raised from the sale - the owner will buy another animal that is brought into a sludge victim.

And the same with to replace it. If the owner then replaces it with another animal-Hulin, with it comes the same way: it is not sacrifice, but let out to pasture and wait until it will have a physical disability which would make it unfit for the altar. Then sell it and use the proceeds to make sacrifices sludge.

However, if a lost pet, initially allocated to the victims of Passover, is after the time of Passover shechita - after being slaughtered this animal taken for Passover instead, it will be sacrificed as sludge. Since it was not consciously rejected and was not available at the time of shechita - when there is a final clarification of what animal will be brought in as the Passover sacrifice of himself can be brought to the altar as a slurry.

And the same with to replace it. If the owner replaced it with another animal-hulik, it can also be brought into the sludge as a victim.

The Gemara says that in accordance with the thought of Rabbi Akiva could be all this say about the victim of Passover, and not to replace it: there is Pesach sacrifice to God, and there is Passover, which do not bring. However, the Mishnah elected a presentation pathway to simultaneously inform about the possibility of such a replacement of Passover, which did not bring in this capacity, and at the same time, we are not saying that it is from the very beginning - sludge (see Pesachim 966 -. Rashi and "Tosafot").
