Reference for Zevachim 226:23

והא נמי תיפוק לי מפתח אהל מועד

THE SCAPEGOAT. [Is it not eligible to come to the door of the tent of meeting? ] Surely the following contradicts it: Or sacrifice [korban]:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lev. XVII, 8.');"><sup>19</sup></span> I might understand even sacred things of the Temple Repair,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. p. 74 n. 7.');"><sup>20</sup></span> which are designated korban, as it says, And we have brought the Lord's korban [offering].<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Num. XXXI, 50. The verse continues: of jewels of gold, armlets etc.; hence it obviously refers to sacred things of Temple Repair.');"><sup>21</sup></span> Therefore it states, and bringeth it not unto the door of the tent of meting: [the law applies only to] what is eligible to come to the door of the tent of meeting; hence sacred things of Temple Repair, which are not thus eligible,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Because only blemished animals can be consecrated for Temple Repair, and such are not eligible for a sacrifice.');"><sup>22</sup></span> are excluded.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If one slaughtered these without as a sacrifice, he is not culpable.');"><sup>23</sup></span> I might think that I exclude these, which are not eligible, but I do not exclude the scapegoat that is sent away, which is eligible to come to the door of the tent of meeting:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' As we do not know which will be sacrificed and which will be sent away, until the lots are cast.');"><sup>24</sup></span> therefore it states, [to sacrifice unto the Lord, which excludes the scapegoat, as that is not dedicated to the Lord? - There is no difficulty: the one means before the casting of lots;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' To determine which shall be sacrificed and which sent away; V. Lev. XVI, 8. At that stage it is eligible to come to the tent of meeting.');"><sup>25</sup></span> the other means after the casting of lots. After the casting of lot too there is still the confession?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Which is made over that goat, v. ibid. 21. That was made within.');"><sup>26</sup></span> - Rather, said R'Mani, there is no difficulty: The one means before confession; the other means after confession. A ROBA' AND A NIRBA'. But this too I may infer from 'unto the door of the tent of meeting'?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Why does the Mishnah quote a different proof-text here?');"><sup>27</sup></span>
