רבינא אמר ריבוי שבעה ומשיחה שבעה איכא בינייהו למ"ד כל הכתוב בהן מעכב בהן מעכבא למ"ד דבר שאין מעכב לדורות אין מעכב בהן לא מעכבא
R'Papa said: The separation for seven days is the [practical] difference between the two opinions. According to the opinion that whatsoever is prescribed for the ceremony is indispensable, the separation, too,is indispensable; according to him who holds that only what is indispensable for all time to come is indispensable now, the separation is not indispensable. Whence do we know that the separation is not indispensable for all time to come?
Tosefta Shekalim (Lieberman)
A high priest may not enter the court for worship unless he has been anointed for seven [consecutive days] and clothed in the holy garments for seven [consecutive days]. Even if he wasn't anointed seven [days straight]. and has not been clothed in the holy robes for seven [consecutive days], and [nevertheless] performs his service, then this is valid. An ordinary priest may enter the court (to the service) only when he has brought a tenth of Epha of his own [property] and offered it with his own hand; if he has not brought a tenth of an ephah from his own [property] and [yet] performed the service, then this is valid.
