R'Huna said: What is Ben 'Azzai's reason? - It is a burnt-offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lev. I, 17.');"><sup>15</sup></span> 'it is' implies that [when it i slaughtered] in its own name it is valid; when not in its own name, it is invalid. But 'it is' is written in the case of the guilt-offering too? - That is written after the burning of the emurim.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. supra, ');"><sup>16</sup></span> But in this case too it is written after the burning of the emurim? - 'It is' is written twice [in connection with the burnt-offering].<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The one already quoted, and the other in Ex. XXIX, 18. Though there too it is after the burning of the emurim, yet since its teaching is unnecessary in that respect, as one text is sufficient for that, you must apply its teaching as intimating that when not slaughtered in its own name it is unfit,');"><sup>17</sup></span> Yet 'it is' is written twice in the case of the guilt-offering too?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lev. V, 19 and VII, 5.');"><sup>18</sup></span> - Rather, Ben 'Azzai infers it a fortiori: If sin-offering is invalid when one slaughters it under a different designation, though it is not entirely burnt, how much the more is a burnt-offering [invalid in such circumstances], seeing that it is entirely burnt - As for the sin-offering, [it may be argued] the reason is that it makes atonement! Then let the Passover-offering prove it. As for the Passover-offering, the reason is because its time [for slaughtering] is fixed! Then let the sin-offering prove it. And thus the argument revolves: the feature peculiar to the one is not that peculiar to the other, and the feature peculiar to the other is not that peculiar to the first. Their common characteristic that they are sacred sacrifices, and if one slaughters them under a different designation they are invalid; so will I adduce the burnt-offering too, which is a sacred sacrifice, and if one slaughters it for a different purpose, it is invalid. [No:] their common feature is that an aspect of kareth is involved in them!<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. supra ');"><sup>19</sup></span> - Ben'Azzai
