Reference for Zevachim 57:6
תיפוק לי מקרא קמא אם האכל יאכל מדאפקיה רחמנא בלשון שלישי
- Said R'Ashi: I reported this discussion before R'Mattenah, whereupon he answered me: If [I deduced it] from there, I would say: 'Third' is a particularization, and 'piggul' is a generalisation,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., 'third' indicates a place with that threefold function, while piggul is a general term denoting all places.');"><sup>8</sup></span> and so the generalisation becomes an addition to the particularization, and therefore other places are included too.
