Commentary for Pesachim 89:7
ורבנן אמרי לך מיצרך צריכי חטאת להיתר מצטרף לאיסור וחולין מקדשים לא גמר ומשרת ליתן טעם כעיקר ומכאן אתה דן לכל התורה כולה
It is well [to say] that if the Merciful One wrote it in respect to a sin-offering, [the case of] a nazirite could not be derived fr it, because we cannot derive hullin from sacred sacrifices.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The latter being naturally more stringent. Hence the fact that there the permitted combines with the forbidden does not prove that it will also do so in the case of hullin, where the interdicted food is not sacred.');"><sup>9</sup></span> But let the Merciful One write it in respect to a nazirite, and then the sin-offering would come and be derived from it, seeing that all the prohibitions of the Torah are learnt from a nazirite.
