## Menachot Daf 10b

###### Menachot 10b:1
[Menachot 10b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:1)

וַהֲרֵי זְרִיקָה דְּלָא כְּתִיב בַּיהּ אֶלָּא כְּהוּנָּה, וּתְנַן: זָרַק בִּשְׂמֹאל פָּסוּל, וְלָא פְּלִיג רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן? אָמַר אַבָּיֵי: פְּלִיג בְּבָרַיְיתָא, דְּתַנְיָא: קִבֵּל בִּשְׂמֹאל פָּסוּל, וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מַכְשִׁיר; זָרַק בִּשְׂמֹאל פָּסוּל, וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מַכְשִׁיר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **But** isn’t there the **sprinkling** of the blood, **concerning which only** the **priesthood is written** in the verse, **and we learned:** If **one sprinkled** the blood **with** his **left** hand it is **disqualified; and Rabbi Shimon does not disagree** with this ruling, indicating that Rabbi Shimon holds that a mention of the priesthood does not require a mention of the word finger? **Abaye says: He disagrees** with this ruling **in a *baraita*, as it is taught** in a *baraita*: If **one collected** the blood **with** his **left** hand it is **disqualified, and Rabbi Shimon deems** it **fit.** Additionally, if **one sprinkled** the blood **with** his **left** hand it is **disqualified, and Rabbi Shimon deems** it **fit.**

[Menachot 10b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:2)

וְאֶלָּא, הָא דְּאָמַר רָבָא: ״יָד״ ״יָד״ לִקְמִיצָה, לְמָה לִי? מִכְּהוּנָּה נָפְקָא!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **But that which Rava says** with regard to the superfluous terms in the passage discussing a leper: One derives a verbal analogy between the word **“hand”** written in that passage and the word **“hand”** written **with regard to the removal of a handful** from a meal offering, to indicate that the latter must also be performed with the right hand, **why do I** need this verbal analogy? One can **derive** that the handful must be removed with the right hand **from** the verse’s mention of the **priesthood,** as it is stated: “And the priest shall remove his handful” (Leviticus 5:12).


###### Menachot 10b:3
[Menachot 10b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:3)

חַד לְקוֹמֶץ, וְחַד לְקִידּוּשׁ קוֹמֶץ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara responds: Both derivations are necessary, **one for** the removal of the **handful** from a meal offering, **and one for the sanctification of** the **handful,** i.e., placing it into a second service vessel. Both must be performed with the right hand.


###### Menachot 10b:4
[Menachot 10b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:4)

לְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן דְּלָא בָּעֵי קִידּוּשׁ קוֹמֶץ, וּלְמַאן דְּאָמַר נָמֵי דְּבָעֵי קִידּוּשׁ קוֹמֶץ לְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן, וּבִשְׂמֹאל אַכְשׁוֹרֵי מַכְשַׁר – ״יָד״ ״יָד״ דְּרָבָא לְמָה לִי?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **And according to Rabbi Shimon, who does not require sanctification of** the **handful, or according to the one who says that Rabbi Shimon also requires the sanctification of** the **handful but** that **he deems** the sanctification **fit** when performed **with** the **left** hand (see 26a), **why do I** need the verbal analogy **of Rava** between **“hand”** and **“hand”?**


###### Menachot 10b:5
[Menachot 10b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:5)

אִי לִקְמִיצָה גּוּפַהּ, אַלִּיבָּא דְּרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן, מִדְּרַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְּרֵיהּ דְּרַבִּי חִיָּיא נָפְקָא, דְּאָמַר רַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְּרֵיהּ דְּרַבִּי חִיָּיא: מַאי טַעְמָא דְּרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן? דְּאָמַר קְרָא: ״קֹדֶשׁ קָדָשִׁים הִיא כַּחַטָּאת וְכָאָשָׁם״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**If** one suggests that it is necessary **to** indicate that the **removal of the handful itself** must be performed with the right hand, this cannot be, since this is **derived from** the verse cited by **Rabbi Yehuda, son of Rabbi Ḥiyya. As Rabbi Yehuda, son of Rabbi Ḥiyya, says: What is the reason that Rabbi Shimon** does not require that the handful be sanctified in a service vessel? **As the verse states** with regard to the meal offering: **“It is most holy, as the sin offering, and as the guilt offering”** (Leviticus 6:10).


###### Menachot 10b:6
[Menachot 10b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:6)

בָּא לְעוֹבְדָהּ בַּיָּד – עוֹבְדָהּ בְּיָמִין, כְּחַטָּאת; בָּא לְעוֹבְדָהּ בִּכְלִי – עוֹבְדָהּ בִּשְׂמֹאל, כְּאָשָׁם.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rabbi Yehuda, son of Rabbi Ḥiyya, elaborates: The verse compares the meal offering to a sin offering and a guilt offering. Therefore, if the priest **comes to perform** the burning of the handful **with** his **hand, he performs it with** his **right** hand, **like** in the case of **a sin offering,** whose blood is sprinkled with the hand. And if he **comes to perform it with a vessel,** i.e., if he first sanctifies the handful in a service vessel, then **he** may **perform it with** his **left** hand, **like** in the case of **a guilt offering,** whose blood is sprinkled from a vessel. Since the removal of the handful is performed with the hand, the verse indicates that it must be performed with the right hand, and the verbal analogy is unnecessary.


###### Menachot 10b:7
[Menachot 10b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:7)

לֹא נִצְרְכָא אֶלָּא לְקוֹמֶץ דְּמִנְחַת חוֹטֵא, סָלְקָא דַּעְתָּךְ אָמֵינָא: הוֹאִיל וְאָמַר רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן שֶׁלֹּא יְהֵא קׇרְבָּנוֹ מְהוּדָּר, כִּי קָמֵיץ לַהּ נָמֵי בִּשְׂמֹאל תִּתַּכְשַׁר, קָמַשְׁמַע לַן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara responds: The verbal analogy **is necessary only for the handful of the meal offering of a sinner,** to teach that it must be removed with the right hand. It might **enter your mind to say: Since Rabbi Shimon says** that this offering does not require oil and frankincense **so that** a sinner’s **offering will not be of superior quality,** perhaps **when** the priest **removed the handful with** his **left** hand, which is a manner of inferior quality, **it should be fit as well.** The verbal analogy therefore **teaches us** that the handful must always be removed with the right hand, even in the case of the meal offering of a sinner.


###### Menachot 10b:8
[Menachot 10b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Menachot/r/10b:8)

קָמַץ וְעָלָה בְּיָדוֹ צְרוֹר, אוֹ גַרְגֵּר מֶלַח,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The mishna teaches: If a priest **removed the handful** of flour, **and a stone or a grain of salt emerged in his hand,**
