אלא היקשא קמא למאי אתא כי חטאת מה חטאת אינה נאכלת אלא לזכרי כהונה אף זבחי שלמי צבור לזכרי כהונה
- Rather, [said Raba], It follows from what R'Mari the son of R'Kahana recited: [Ye shall blow with the trumpets] over your burnt-offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Num. X, 10. It must mean the peace-offerings of the congregation, since private peace-offerings did not require the blowing of trumpets.');"><sup>4</sup></span> as a burnt-offering was a sacrifice of higher sanctity, so were the public peace-offerings sacrifices of higher sanctity; as a burnt-offering [was slaughtered] in the north, so were the public peace-offerings [slaughtered] in the north.
