ואי אשמעינן לענין מקדש לחם ה"א בהך קאמר ר"ש בן לקיש דבעינן על בסמוך דאי איתיה גואי קדיש אי לא לא קדיש אבל לענין חמץ מודה ליה לרבי יוחנן דלא בעינן על בסמוך דאיסורא הוא וכל היכא דאיתיה איתיה צריכא
- Said he to him, Is it then written, 'Thou shalt not slaughter [the blood of My sacrifice] wit thy leavened bread'? 'Thou shalt not slaughter [the blood of My sacrifice] with leavened bread' is written.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ex. XXXIV, 25. Hence he is culpable.');"><sup>13</sup></span> If so, he countered, [he is culpable] even if a person at the end of the world [possesses leaven]! - Said he to him, Scripture saith, Thou shalt not slaughter [the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread]; neither shall [the sacrifice of the feast of the Passover] be left overnight unto the morning: [thus,] 'Thou shalt not slaught. with leavened bread' [applies to] those who are subject to 'it shall not be left overnight' on its account.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' And that obviously applies to its owners only.');"><sup>14</sup></span>
Tosefta Pesachim
One who slaughters the Passover offering along with chametz on the fourteenth [of Nissan] transgresses a negative commandment, [but the] Passover offering itself is valid, and he fulfills his obligation through it with [respect to] the Passover offering. And whether he is the one who slaughters it, or the one who sprinkles its blood, or the one who offers it up [on the Altar, he is liable]. In what case does this apply? When one of the members of a collective [who will partake in the Paschal lamb] has chametz [in his possession]. If none of the members of the collective has chametz, he is exempt, but the one who pinches the neck of a bird inside [the Temple] with chametz on the fourteenth transgresses a negative commandment.
