Commentary for Menachot 7:8

א"ל שפיר קאמרת (במדבר ה, טו) מזכרת עון כתיב בה ובחטאת כתיב (ויקרא י, יז) ואותה נתן לכם לשאת את עון העדה מה חטאת מותרה נדבה אף מנחת קנאות מותרה נדבה וכחטאת מה חטאת פסולה שלא לשמה אף מנחת קנאות פסולה שלא לשמה

And again like the sin-offering; as the sin-offering Is invalid if offered unde any other name than its own, so the meal-offering of jealousy is also invalid if offered under any other name than its own. In that case the guilt-offering should also be invalid if offered under any name other than its own, since one can infer it from the sin-offering by means of the common expression 'iniquity'!<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For in connection with the guilt-offering there is also used the expression 'iniquity': Yet is he guilty and shall bear his iniquity (Lev. V, 17) . Nevertheless it is established law that a guilt-offering offered under any other name than its own is valid.');"><sup>9</sup></span>
