Halakhah for Keritot 44:15
ורבנן סברי
The text says, And if any one: 'And' implies an addition to the foregoing, so we therefore derive the law above from the law below.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., because of the connection established by the 'and', this inference is to be made in spite of the deduction by gezerah shawah to the contrary. This analogy based on the inner or logical connection between laws is known as a hekkesh.');"><sup>12</sup></span>
Sefer HaChinukh
The commandment of a definite guilt-offering: To offer a sacrifice for well-known sins - that we will explain. And this sacrifice is called a definite guilt-offering. And it is a sacrifice of a ram that needs to be worth two sela (Keritot 22b). And there are some of these sins for which this sacrifice comes, that are whether he sinned inadvertently or whether volitionally; and there are some for which it only comes specifically for the inadvertent, but not for the volitional.
