זבחים 67:2

Soncino English Talmud · Berean Standard Bible

Come and hear. In the case of a sin-offering for one and a burnt-offering for the other, if he [the priest] offered both above [the red line]. half is fit and half is unfit; [if he offered] both below, half is fit and half is unfit; [if he offered] one above and one below, both are unfit, for I assume that he offered the sin-offering above and the burnt-offering below. Yet even granted that he did offer the burnt-offering below, let it be transmuted into a bird sin-offering? Granted that R. Joshua ruled thus in the case of one man, did he rule so in the case of two men? Come and hear: In the case of a sin-offering and a burnt-offering and an unspecified [sacrifice] and a specified [sacrifice]. if he [the priest] offered all of them above, half are fit and half are unfit; [if he offered] all of them below, half are fit and half are unfit. [If he offered] half of them above and half of them below, only the undefined [pair] are fit, and they share them. Thus, the defined ones are not [fit]. Yet why so? even granted that he offered the burnt-offering below, let it be transmuted into a sin-offering? And should you answer, This does not agree with R. Joshua — can you say so? Surely we learnt: If a woman declared, I vow a pair of birds if I give birth to a male child, and she bore a male child, she must bring two pairs, one for her vow, and one for her statutory obligation. When she gives them to the priest, the priest must offer three above and one below. If he did not do thus, but offered two above and two below, not having consulted her, she must bring another bird and offer it above, [if both were] of the same species. But if they were of two species, she must bring two [birds]. If she defined her vow, she must bring another three birds [and offer them] above [the line], [if both were] of the same species; [if they were] of two species, she must bring four. If she fixed [the time of] her vow,
