## Kiddushin Daf 36b

###### Kiddushin 36b:1
[Kiddushin 36b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:1)

״וְהִקְרִיבוּ״ – זוֹ קַבָּלַת הַדָּם.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**“And** the sons of Aaron **shall present,” this is collecting the blood.**


###### Kiddushin 36b:2
[Kiddushin 36b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:2)

וְהַזָּאוֹת. הַזָּאָה דְּהֵיכָא? אִי דְּפָרָה, ״אֶלְעָזָר״ כְּתִיב בַּהּ. אִי דְּפָנִים, ״הַכֹּהֵן הַמָּשִׁיחַ״ כְּתִיב בַּהּ. אֶלָּא הַזָּאָה דְּבֶן עוֹף,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara discusses the mishna’s ruling that women do not perform **sprinkling: To which sprinkling** is this referring? **If** this is the sprinkling of the ashes **of** the red **heifer, “Elazar” is written with regard to that** action (Numbers 19:4), i.e., this sprinkling is performed by the deputy High Priest. If even other priests cannot perform it, certainly women cannot. **If** this is referring **to** the sprinkling performed **inside** the Holy of Holies, the phrase: **“The anointed priest”** (Leviticus 4:16), **is written with regard to that** rite, and consequently there is no question that women are ineligible. **Rather,** it is referring to **sprinkling** the blood **of a bird**-offering.


###### Kiddushin 36b:3
[Kiddushin 36b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:3)

דְּאָתְיָא בְּקַל וָחוֹמֶר מִבֶּן צֹאן. וּמָה בֶּן צֹאן שֶׁלֹּא קָבַע לוֹ כֹּהֵן לִשְׁחִיטָתוֹ – קָבַע לוֹ כֹּהֵן לְהַזָּאָתוֹ, בֶּן עוֹף שֶׁקָּבַע לוֹ כֹּהֵן לִמְלִיקָתוֹ – אֵינוֹ דִּין שֶׁיִּקְבַּע לוֹ לְהַזָּאָתוֹ?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara explains **that this is derived through an *a fortiori*** inference **from a sheep** offering: **If** with regard to **a sheep** offering, concerning **which** the Torah **did not establish a priest for its slaughter,** since it may be slaughtered by anybody, the Torah nevertheless **established a priest for its sprinkling,** as the verse states: “And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood” (Leviticus 1:11), **is it not logical** that with regard to **a bird**-offering, concerning **which** the Torah **established a priest for its pinching,** an act parallel to slaughtering a sheep, the Torah likewise **established a priest for its sprinkling?** This proves that the sprinkling of the blood of a bird-offering can be performed only by priests, not by women.


###### Kiddushin 36b:4
[Kiddushin 36b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:4)

חוּץ מִמִּנְחַת סוֹטָה וּנְזִירָה. אֲמַר לֵיהּ רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר לְרַבִּי יֹאשִׁיָּה דְּדָרֵיהּ: לָא תֵּיתֵיב אַכַּרְעָךְ עַד דְּאָמְרַתְּ לִי לְהָא שְׁמַעְתְּתָא: מִנַּיִן לְמִנְחַת סוֹטָה שֶׁטְּעוּנָה תְּנוּפָה? מְנָלַן?! בְּגוּפַהּ כְּתִיב: ״וְהֵנִיף אֶת הַמִּנְחָה״! אֶלָּא: תְּנוּפָה בִּבְעָלִים מְנָלַן?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The mishna teaches that these mitzvot apply specifically to men but not to women, **except for the meal-offering of a *sota* and a nazirite woman,** which these women wave. **Rabbi Elazar said to Rabbi Yoshiya of his generation,** i.e., the *amora* who was his contemporary, not the *tanna* with the same name who lived earlier: **Do not sit down until you explain this statement to me; from where** is it derived **that the meal-offering of a *sota* requires waving?** The Gemara expresses surprise: What is the meaning of the question: **From where do we** derive it? **It is written in** the chapter dealing with a *sota* **itself: “And he shall wave the meal-offering”** (Numbers 5:25). **Rather,** the question is as follows: **From where do we** derive that the **waving** is performed **by the owners?** Perhaps only the priest waves it?


###### Kiddushin 36b:5
[Kiddushin 36b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:5)

אָתְיָא ״יָד״ ״יָד״ מִשְּׁלָמִים. כְּתִיב הָכָא: ״וְלָקַח הַכֹּהֵן מִיַּד הָאִשָּׁה״ וּכְתִיב הָתָם: ״יָדָיו תְּבִיאֶנָּה״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rabbi Yoshiya responded: This *halakha* **is derived** through the verbal analogy of the term **“hand”** stated with regard to a *sota* **from** the term **“hand”** stated with regard to **a peace-offering. It is written here,** with regard to the meal-offering of a *sota*: **“And the priest shall take** the meal-offering of jealousy **from the woman’s hand** and he shall wave the meal-offering” (Numbers 5:25), **and it is written there: “His own hands shall bring** the offerings of the Lord made by fire; the fat with the breast shall he bring, that the breast may be waved before the Lord” (Leviticus 7:30).


###### Kiddushin 36b:6
[Kiddushin 36b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:6)

מָה כָּאן כֹּהֵן – אַף לְהַלָּן כֹּהֵן, מָה לְהַלָּן בְּעָלִים – אַף כָּאן בְּעָלִים. הָא כֵּיצַד? כֹּהֵן מַכְנִיס יָדוֹ תַּחַת יָד בְּעָלִים וּמֵנִיף.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Just as here,** with regard to a *sota*, **a priest** performs the waving, **so too there,** with regard to a peace-offering, **a priest** performs the waving. And **just as there,** with regard to a peace-offering, the **owner** performs the waving, as indicated by the verse, **so too here,** with regard to a *sota*, the **owner** performs the waving. **How so?** How can both the priest and the owner perform the waving? The owner places his hands beneath the peace-offering, and the **priest places his hand under the hand of the owner and waves** it together with him.


###### Kiddushin 36b:7
[Kiddushin 36b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:7)

אַשְׁכְּחַן סוֹטָה, נְזִירָה מְנָלַן? אָתְיָא: ״כַּף״ ״כַּף״ מִסּוֹטָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **We found** a source for the meal-offering of **a *sota*; from where do we** derive that **a nazirite woman** also waves her meal-offering? The Gemara answers: **It is derived** through a verbal analogy of the term **“palm”** stated with regard to naziriteship **from** the term **“palm”** stated with regard to **a *sota*.** The verse concerning naziriteship states: “And he shall place them upon the palms of the nazirite” (Numbers 6:19), and the verse concerning a *sota* states: “And he shall place it on her palms” (Numbers 5:18). Just as a *sota* waves her meal-offering, so too, a nazirite woman waves hers.


###### Kiddushin 36b:8
[Kiddushin 36b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Kiddushin/r/36b:8)

**מַתְנִי׳** כׇּל מִצְוָה שֶׁהִיא תְּלוּיָה בָּאָרֶץ – אֵינָהּ נוֹהֶגֶת אֶלָּא בָּאָרֶץ, וְשֶׁאֵינָהּ תְּלוּיָה בָּאָרֶץ – נוֹהֶגֶת בֵּין בָּאָרֶץ בֵּין בְּחוּצָה לָאָרֶץ,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**MISHNA:** **Any mitzva that is dependent on the land [*aretz*] applies only in Eretz** Yisrael, **and** any mitzva **that is not dependent on the land applies both in Eretz** Yisrael **and outside of Eretz** Yisrael.
