Halakhah for Makkot 43:13

נזיר שמשון בר איטמויי למתים הוא אלא האי תנא איסור כולל לית ליה

But a Nazir Shimshon can become containment with copses? Rather the Tanna does not hold of an inclusive prohibition.

Sefer HaChinukh

And they elucidated for us (Makkot 22a) that one who cooks with the wood of a tree-god is lashed two [sets of lashes] - because of "You shall not bring an abhorrent thing," and because of "And no thing shall cling to your hand from the anathema"; since they are two matters, one is to bring something of idolatry into his domain to benefit from and [the other] is that he benefits from it. As a person shows a desire for it about himself with both of them; and he is lashed for both of them, as we have written. And even though there is one main principle for both of them - and that is benefit, as behold, he is only lashed because of the benefit - nonetheless, once he benefits, he is lashed twice. And [it is] like the matter that we said above in the Order of Emor (Sefer HaChinukh 273) about a high priest that has sexual intercourse with a widow - that he is lashed twice, even though the two negative commandments have one main principle to them, as we have written there.
