Commentary for Zevachim 59:13

רב שימי בר אשי מתני כדאביי רב הונא בר נתן מתני כדרבא

Raba said to Abaye: According to you who maintain that here R'Meir certainly agrees, Yet lo! slaughtering is analogous to half and half, yet they disagree?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' When one slaughters the sacrifice with the intention of eating as much as an olive without bounds and as much as an olive after time, the second intention is not an afterthought cancelling the first, since both are possible; yet R. Judah regards the first statement only. This is analogous to making an animal a substitute for half a burnt-offering and half a peace-offerings, for here too both are possible. Now R. Meir who regards the first statement only in substitution agrees with R. Judah in our Mishnah, and therefore in the declaration in question too he should regard the first statement only.');">⁴</span>
