Reference for Zevachim 55:19

אלא אמר אביי כי אתא רב יצחק בר אבדימי [אמר רב] סמיך אדתני תנא כשהוא אומר שלישי בפרשת קדושים תהיו שאין ת"ל שהרי כבר נאמר (ויקרא ז, יח) ואם האכל יאכל מבשר זבח השלמים ביום השלישי

IT IS UNFIT, AND DOES NOT INVOLVE KARETH etc. Whence do we know it? - Said Samuel: Two texts are written. What are they? - Said Rabbah: [And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings be at all eaten] on the third day: this refers to [an intention of eating the flesh] after time; shall be piggul [an abhorred thing] refers to [an intention of eating the flesh] out of bounds; and the soul tha eateth of it [shall bear his iniquity:]<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lev. VII, 18; 'shall bear his iniquity' means that he incurs kareth.');"><sup>25</sup></span> [only] one [involves kareth], but not two,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' This follows from the sing. 'it'.');"><sup>26</sup></span> viz. , after time, and excluding out of bounds. Yet say that 'and the soul that eateth of it' refers to out of bounds, and excludes after time? - It is logical that after time is graver, since [Scripture] commences with it. On the contrary, out of bounds is more likely [to be meant] since it is near it?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' The word mimennu, ('of it') , is in immediate proximity to the word piggul, which on the present exegesis extends the law to eating out of bounds.');"><sup>27</sup></span> - Rather said Abaye: When R'Isaac B'Abdimi came,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' From Palestine to Babylon.');"><sup>28</sup></span> he said: Rabbah<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Emended text. Printed edd: Rab.');"><sup>29</sup></span> relies on what a Tanna taught. [Viz. ;] When Scripture mentions the 'third [day]' in the pericope 'Ye shall be holy',<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' This is the name of the pericope or weekly reading commencing with Lev. XIX, 1. The verse alluded to is: And if it (the flesh of a sacrifice) be eaten at all on the third day, it is piggul (a vile thing) ; it shall not be accepted.');"><sup>30</sup></span> which need not be stated, since it has already been said, And if any of the flesh of his sacrifices be at all eaten on the third day etc. ;
