Commentary for Zevachim 92:6

וחד אמר כמחלוקת בזו כך מחלוקת בזו מאי טעמא כיון דקרינא ביה (ויקרא ז, יט) והבשר אשר יגע בכל טמא קרינן ביה (ויקרא ז, כ) וטומאתו עליו

Rabbah raised an objection: R. JOSE SAID: EVEN IF ONE DID NOT HAVE ANY OF THESE PURPOSES IN HIS HEART, IT IS VALID, BECAUSE IT IS A REGULATION OF THE BETH DIN. Thus it is only because he had no [purpose] in his heart at all; hence, if he intended it for the sake of hullin, it is invalid? - Said Abaye to him: Perhaps [this deduction is to be made]: if he had no intention at all, it is valid and propitiates while if he intended it for the sake of hullin it is valid but does not propitiate. <br>
