Commentary for Menachot 30:13

אמרו לו לר"מ והלא אדם מביא זבחו היום ונסכיו עד י' ימים אמר להן אף אני לא אמרתי אלא בבאין עם הזבח א"ל אפשר לשנותו לזבח אחר

R'Abba the Younger stated the question thus, R'Eleazar enquired of Rab: What is the law if he slaughtered the lamb intending to eat an olive's bulk of the other on the morrow? Does 'the other' mean the [other] lamb, in which case there is no piggul at all;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For, since the slaughtering of both lambs is the mattir, i.e., that which renders the loaves permissible, a wrongful intention expressed during the slaughtering of one lamb, which is only part of the mattir, in respect of the other part of the mattir, i.e., the other lamb, does not make piggul.');">¹¹</span>
