Reference for Zevachim 186:10

מן הדם שבענין למעוטי מאי אמר רבא למעוטי שיריים שבאצבע מסייע לרבי אלעזר דאר"א שיריים שבאצבע פסולין

For if the Divine Law wrote 'and he shall dip' [only], I would say, even where there is insufficient for dipping in the first place; therefore the Divine Law wrote 'in the blood'. And if the Divine Law wrote 'in the blood' [only], I would say that he may even sponge it up; therefore the Divine Law wrote, 'and he shall dip'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For notes v. supra 40b.');">¹²</span>
