Commentary for Zevachim 82:3

תנא דבי רבי ישמעאל מפני מה נאמרו יותרת ושתי כליות בפר כהן משיח ולא נאמרו בפר העלם דבר של צבור משל למלך בשר ודם שזעם על אוהבו ומיעט בסרחונו מפני חיבתו

The School of R. Ishmael taught: Why are the lobe and the two kidneys mentioned in connection with the anointed priest's bullock, but not in connection with the community's bullock for unwitting transgression? It may be compared to a king of flesh and blood who was angry with his friend, but spoke little of his offence, out of his love for him. <br>
