דַּם חַטָּאת שֶׁנִּתַּז עַל הַבֶּגֶד, הֲרֵי זֶה טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵין הַכָּתוּב מְדַבֵּר אֶלָּא בַנֶּאֱכָלוֹת, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא ו), בְּמָקוֹם קָדֹשׁ תֵּאָכֵל, אֶחָד הַנֶּאֱכֶלֶת וְאֶחָד הַפְּנִימִית טְעוּנוֹת כִּבּוּס, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (שם), תּוֹרַת הַחַטָּאת, תּוֹרָה אַחַת לְכָל הַחַטָּאוֹת:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
In the case of **the blood of a sin offering** designated for presentation **that was sprayed on a garment, that** garment **requires laundering,** as is stated with regard to a sin offering: “And when any of its blood shall be sprinkled on a garment, you shall launder that on which it shall be sprinkled in a sacred place” (Leviticus 6:20). **Although the verse is speaking only of** sin offerings **that are eaten** and whose blood is presented on the outer altar, **as it is stated: “In a sacred place shall it be eaten”** (Leviticus 6:19), the principle is not exclusive to eaten sin offerings. With regard to the blood of **both** the sin offerings **that are eaten and the** sin offerings that are wholly burned and not eaten and whose blood is presented on the **inner** altar, garments sprayed with blood from each of these offerings **require laundering. As it is stated** at the start of that passage: “This is **the law of the sin offering”** (Leviticus 6:18), it is understood: There is **one law for all the sin offerings.**


###### Mishnah Zevachim 11:2
[Mishnah Zevachim 11:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:2)

חַטָּאת פְּסוּלָה אֵין דָּמָהּ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס, בֵּין שֶׁהָיָה לָהּ שְׁעַת הַכֹּשֶׁר, בֵּין שֶׁלֹּא הָיָה לָהּ שְׁעַת הַכּשֶׁר. אֵיזוֹ הִיא שֶׁהָיָה לָהּ שְׁעַת הַכּשֶׁר. שֶׁלָּנָה, שֶׁנִּטְמְאָה, וְשֶׁיָּצְאָה. וְאֵיזוֹ הִיא שֶׁלֹּא הָיָה לָהּ שְׁעַת הַכּשֶׁר. שֶׁנִּשְׁחֲטָה חוּץ לִזְמַנָּהּ וְחוּץ לִמְקוֹמָהּ, וְשֶׁקִּבְּלוּ פְסוּלִין וְזָרְקוּ אֶת דָּמָה:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
That is the *halakha* with regard to sin offerings fit for sacrifice. With regard to **a disqualified sin offering, its blood does not** cause a garment to **require laundering whether** the offering **had a period of fitness** when its blood was fit for presentation **or whether it did not have a period of fitness. Which** offering **is** the disqualified sin offering **that had a period of fitness?** It is one **that was left overnight** and then became disqualified; **or** it is one **that became ritually impure; or** it is one **that emerged** from of the Temple courtyard. **Which** offering **is** the disqualified sin offering **that did not have a period of fitness?** It is one **that was slaughtered** with the intent to eat it or present its blood **beyond its** designated **time or outside its** designated **area; or** it is one whose blood was **collected** by people **disqualified** for Temple service **and** they **sprinkled its blood.**

נִתַּז מִן הַצַּוָּאר עַל הַבֶּגֶד, אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. מִן הַקֶּרֶן וּמִן הַיְסוֹד, אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. נִשְׁפַּךְ עַל הָרִצְפָּה וַאֲסָפוֹ, אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. אֵין טָעוּן כִּבּוּס אֶלָּא הַדָּם שֶׁנִּתְקַבֵּל בִּכְלִי וְרָאוּי לְהַזָּיָה. נִתַּז עַל הָעוֹר עַד שֶׁלֹּא הֻפְשַׁט, אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. מִשֶּׁהֻפְשַׁט, טָעוּן כִּבּוּס, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי יְהוּדָה. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, אַף מִשֶּׁהֻפְשַׁט אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס. אֵינוֹ טָעוּן כִּבּוּס אֶלָּא מְקוֹם הַדָּם, וְדָבָר שֶׁהוּא רָאוּי לְקַבֵּל טֻמְאָה, וְרָאוּי לְכִבּוּס:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
If the blood of a sin offering **sprayed from the neck** of the animal **onto a garment,** the garment **does not require laundering.** If the blood was collected in a vessel and sprinkled on the altar and sprayed **from the corner or from the base** of the altar onto the garment, the garment **does not require laundering,** as the blood was already sprinkled and its mitzva was fulfilled. If the blood **spilled** from the neck **onto the floor** before it was collected in a vessel, **and** the priest **collected** the blood and it sprayed on a garment, the garment **does not require laundering.** It is **only** with regard to **blood that was received in** a sacred **vessel and is fit for sprinkling** that the garment **requires laundering.** Apropos laundering the blood of a sin offering from garments onto which it sprayed, the mishna discusses what is considered a garment. If the blood of a sin offering **sprayed onto the hide** of an animal **before it was flayed** from the animal, the hide **does not require laundering,** because its status is not that of a garment, which is susceptible to ritual impurity. If the blood sprayed onto the hide **after it was flayed, it requires laundering;** this is **the statement of Rabbi Yehuda.** **Rabbi Elazar says: Even** if the blood sprayed onto the hide **after it was flayed, it does not require laundering** until it is crafted into a vessel or garment that is actually susceptible to ritual impurity. This is the principle with regard to laundering: A garment must be laundered **only** in the **place** where **the blood** was sprayed, **and** only if it is **an item that is fit to become ritually impure, and** only if it is an item **fit for laundering.**


###### Mishnah Zevachim 11:4
[Mishnah Zevachim 11:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:4)

אֶחָד הַבֶּגֶד וְאֶחָד הַשַּׂק וְאֶחָד הָעוֹר, טְעוּנִין כִּבּוּס בְּמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. וּשְׁבִירַת כְּלִי חֶרֶס, בְּמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. וּמְרִיקָה וּשְׁטִיפָה בִּכְלִי נְחשֶׁת, בְּמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. זֶה חֹמֶר בַּחַטָּאת מִקָּדְשֵׁי קָדָשִׁים:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
With regard to **the garment** mentioned explicitly in the Torah, **and the sackcloth, and the hide, all** of these **require laundering. And the laundering** must be performed **in a sacred place,** the Temple courtyard, **and the breaking of an earthenware vessel** in which a sin offering was cooked must be performed **in a sacred place, and scouring and rinsing of a copper vessel** in which a sin offering was cooked must be performed **in a sacred place.** With regard to **this** matter, **a stringency** applies **to a sin offering** more **than** it applies to **offerings of the most sacred order.**


###### Mishnah Zevachim 11:5
[Mishnah Zevachim 11:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:5)

בֶּגֶד שֶׁיָּצָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, נִכְנָס וּמְכַבְּסוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. נִטְמָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, קוֹרְעוֹ, וְנִכְנָס וּמְכַבְּסוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. כְּלִי חֶרֶס שֶׁיָּצָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, נִכְנָס וְשׁוֹבְרוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. נִטְמָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, נוֹקְבוֹ, וְנִכְנָס וְשׁוֹבְרוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
With regard to **a garment** upon which the blood of a sin offering was sprayed **that went outside the curtains,** i.e., the Temple courtyard, before being laundered, the garment **reenters** the courtyard **and** one **launders it in a sacred place.** If the garment **became ritually impure outside the curtains,** one **tears** the garment in order to render it ritually pure, **enters** the courtyard with it, **and launders it in a sacred place.** With regard to **an earthenware vessel** in which a sin offering was cooked **that went outside the curtains,** the vessel **reenters** the courtyard **and** one **breaks it in a sacred place.** If the vessel **became ritually impure outside the curtains,** one **punctures** the vessel to render it ritually pure, **and** one **enters** the courtyard with it **and breaks it in a sacred place.**


###### Mishnah Zevachim 11:6
[Mishnah Zevachim 11:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:6)

כְּלִי נְחשֶׁת שֶׁיָּצָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, נִכְנָס וּמוֹרְקוֹ וְשׁוֹטְפוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ. נִטְמָא חוּץ לַקְּלָעִים, פּוֹחֲתוֹ, וְנִכְנָס וּמוֹרְקוֹ וְשׁוֹטְפוֹ בְמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
With regard to **a copper vessel** in which a sin offering was cooked **that went outside the curtains,** the vessel **reenters** the courtyard, **and** one **scours it and rinses it in a sacred place.** If the vessel **became ritually impure outside the curtains, one breaks** the vessel by boring a large hole in it to render it ritually pure **and enters** the courtyard with it **and scours and rinses it in a sacred place.**

[Mishnah Zevachim 11:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:7)

אֶחָד שֶׁבִּשֵּׁל בּוֹ וְאֶחָד שֶׁעֵרָה לְתוֹכוֹ רוֹתֵחַ, אֶחָד קָדְשֵׁי קָדָשִׁים וְאֶחָד קָדָשִׁים קַלִּים, טְעוּנִין מְרִיקָה וּשְׁטִיפָה. רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר, קָדָשִׁים קַלִּים אֵינָן טְעוּנִין מְרִיקָה וּשְׁטִיפָה. רַבִּי טַרְפוֹן אוֹמֵר, אִם בִּשֵּׁל בּוֹ מִתְּחִלַּת הָרֶגֶל, יְבַשֵּׁל בּוֹ אֶת כָּל הָרָגֶל. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, עַד זְמַן אֲכִילָה. מְרִיקָה וּשְׁטִיפָה, מְרִיקָה כִּמְרִיקַת הַכּוֹס, וּשְׁטִיפָה כִּשְׁטִיפַת הַכּוֹס. מְרִיקָה בְּחַמִּין וּשְׁטִיפָה בְּצּוֹנֵן. וְהַשַּׁפּוּד וְהָאַסְכְּלָה מַגְעִילָן בְּחַמִּין:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Whether** with regard to a copper vessel **in which** one **cooked** the meat of an offering **or whether** with regard to one **into which** one **poured** the **boiling** meat of an offering, **whether** the meat is from **offerings of the most sacred order or whether** it is from **offerings of lesser sanctity,** such vessels **require scouring and rinsing. Rabbi Shimon says:** Vessels in which **offerings of lesser sanctity** were cooked or poured **do not require scouring and rinsing.** **Rabbi Tarfon says:** If one **cooked** a sin offering in a copper vessel **from the beginning of the** pilgrimage **Festival,** one **may cook in it** for **the entire** pilgrimage **Festival;** he need not scour and rinse the vessel after every use. **And the Rabbis say:** One may not continue using it in this manner; rather, one must perform **scouring and rinsing before** the end of the **period** during which **partaking** of the particular cooked offering is permitted. **Scouring** is **like the scouring of** the inside of **a cup,** the cleaning done when wine sticks to the cup, **and rinsing** is **like the rinsing of** the outside of **a cup. Scouring** is performed **with hot** water, **and rinsing with cold** water. With regard to **the spit and the** metal **grill [*askela*],** one **purges them in hot water.**


###### Mishnah Zevachim 11:8
[Mishnah Zevachim 11:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Mishnah%20Zevachim/r/11:8)

בִּשֵּׁל בּוֹ קָדָשִׁים וְחֻלִּין, אוֹ קָדְשֵׁי קָדָשִׁים וְקָדָשִׁים קַלִּים, אִם יֵשׁ בָּהֶן בְּנוֹתֵן טַעַם, הֲרֵי הַקַּלִּים נֶאֱכָלִין כַּחֲמוּרִין, וְאֵינָן טְעוּנִין מְרִיקָה וּשְׁטִיפָה, וְאֵינָם פּוֹסְלִין בְּמַגָּע. רָקִיק שֶׁנָּגַע בְּרָקִיק, וַחֲתִיכָה בַּחֲתִיכָה, לֹא כָל הָרָקִיק וְלֹא כָל הַחֲתִיכוֹת אֲסוּרִין. אֵינוֹ אָסוּר אֶלָּא מְקוֹם שֶׁבָּלָע:

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
If one **cooked in** one vessel **sacrificial** meat **and non-sacred** meat, **or** the meat of **offerings of the most sacred order and** the meat of **offerings of lesser sanctity,** the status of the food depends upon the taste of the stringent substance. **If there is** enough **of** the more sacred meat **to impart flavor** to the less sacred or non-sacred meat, then **the lenient** components of the mixtures must **be eaten in accordance with** the restrictions of **the stringent** components **therein,** insofar as who may partake of them, as well as the time when and the place where they may be eaten. **And** the copper vessels in which the lenient components were cooked **do not require scouring and rinsing, and** the lenient components **do not disqualify** pieces of meat **through contact.** With regard to these principles, the lenient components do not assume the status of the stringent components. In the case of a fit **wafer that touched** an unfit **wafer or a piece** of sacrificial meat that touched an unfit **piece** of sacrificial meat, **neither all the wafers nor all the pieces** of meat **are forbidden. No** part is **forbidden other than** that which is **in the place where** the item **absorbed** taste from the unfit wafers or pieces.
