זבחים 57:2
Soncino English Talmud · Berean Standard Bible
Alternatively, [the sprinklings] without [in the Hekal] are directly inferred from [those ] within [the Holy of Holies]. On the view that it does not constitute a hekkesh, it is well: hence it is written, Ye shall bring out of your dwellings [two] wave-loaves [of two tenth parts of an ephah etc]: Now, ‘ye shall bring’ need not be said; what then does ‘ye shall bring’ teach? Whatever you bring on another occasion must be like this: as here a tenth [of an ephah] is used for hallah, so there too a tenth is required for hallah. If so, as here two tenths are required, so there too two tenths are required? Therefore Scripture states, they shall be [of fine flour]. We have thus learnt ten [tenths] for leavened [loaves]. Whence do we know ten [tenths] for unleavened loaves? Because it says, With cakes of leavened bread [he shall present his offering with the sacrifice of his peace-offering for thanksgiving] [which intimates,] Bring an equal quantity of unleavened as of leavened. But on the view that it constitutes a hekkesh, what can be said? — ‘Ye shall bring’ is superfluous. THE PASSOVER-OFFERING IS EATEN ONLY [etc]. Which Tanna [rules thus]? — Said R. Joseph, It is R. Eleazar b. ‘Azariah. For it was taught, R. Eleazar b. ‘Azariah said, [And they shall eat the flesh] in the night is stated here, whilst elsewhere it is stated, For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night: just as there it means by midnight, so here too it means by midnight. Said R. Akiba to him: Yet surely it is already stated, [and ye shall eat it] in haste, [implying] until the time of haste? If so, what is taught by ‘in that night’? You might think that it is like all [other] sacrifices, which are eaten by day: therefore it is stated ‘in [that] night’: it is eaten by night, but it may not be eaten by day. Said Abaye to him [R. Joseph]: How do you know that [the author of our Mishnah is] R. Eleazar b. ‘Azariah, while [the law is] Biblical. Perhaps the law is Rabbinical only, [the reason being] to prevent transgression? — If so, why state, ONLY UNTIL MIDNIGHT? But it means, It is as the other laws; as those are Biblical, so is this Biblical. [
