Commentary for Zevachim 11:8
איבעיא להו כיפרו על מה שבאו או לא כיפרו
Surely R'Abbahu said in R'Johanan's name: He who sanctifies [the animal] must add the fifth, whilst only he for whom atonement is made can effect substitution;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If A dedicates an animal for B's sacrifice, and it subsequently receives a blemish and must be redeemed, then if A, who sanctified it, redeems it himself, he must add a fifth to its value, but not if B redeems it (this is deduced from Lev. XXVII, 15) . Again, only B effects substitution, but not A. Since then the heir does effect substitution, he is obviously regarded as in the place of B, hence its owner.');"><sup>6</sup></span>
