One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a burnt offering, must sacrifice it in the Temple in Jerusalem. And if he sacrificed it in the temple of Onias in Egypt, he has not fulfilled his obligation. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a burnt offering that I will sacrifice in the temple of Onias, must sacrifice it in the Temple in Jerusalem, but if he sacrificed it in the temple of Onias, he has fulfilled his obligation. Rabbi Shimon says that if one says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a burnt offering that I will sacrifice in the temple of Onias, it is not consecrated as a burnt offering; such a statement does not consecrate the animal at all. If one says: I am hereby a nazirite, then when his term of naziriteship is completed he must shave the hair of his head and bring the requisite offerings in the Temple in Jerusalem; and if he shaved in the temple of Onias, he has not fulfilled his obligation. If one says: I am hereby a nazirite provided that I will shave in the temple of Onias, he must shave in the Temple in Jerusalem; but if he shaved in the temple of Onias, he has fulfilled his obligation. Rabbi Shimon says that one who says: I am hereby a nazirite provided that I will shave in the temple of Onias, is not a nazirite at all, as his vow does not take effect. The priests who served in the temple of Onias may not serve in the Temple in Jerusalem; and needless to say, if they served for something else, a euphemism for idolatry, they are disqualified from service in the Temple. As it is stated: โ€œNevertheless the priests of the private altars did not come up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, but they did eat matza among their brethrenโ€ (IIย Kings 23:9). The halakhic status of these priests is like that of blemished priests in that they receive a share in the distribution of the meat of the offerings and partake of that meat, but they do not sacrifice offerings or perform any of the sacrificial rites.

ื‘ื‘ื™ืช ื—ื•ื ื™ื• โ€“ The Temple that Khonyo, the son of Shimon HaTzaddik built in Alexandria of Egypt. For when Shimon HaTzaddik (see Tractate Avot, Chapter 1, Mishnah 2 โ€“ one of the last of the generation of the Great Assembly who stated that the world stands on three โ€œpillarsโ€: Torah, Divine Service and Deeds of Loving Kindness) [was about] to die (see the Baraita in Tractate Menahot 109b), he said to them (i.e., his sons): Khonyo, my son will serve in my place, because he is an expert and familiar with the Divine Service more than Shimei his brother. But Khonyo did not accept upon himself to become the High Priest because Shimei his brother was two and half years older than him. And Shimei was appointed as High Priest in place of his father. Subsequently, Khonyo became jealous of Shimei his brother, he (i.e., Shimei) said to him: โ€œCome and I will teach you the order/arrangement of the Divine Service. He dressed him in a thin, fine linen shirt/undercoat, that women wear upon their flesh and upon it a small, narrow belt/girdle and he placed him near the Altar; he went and said to his brethren the Kohanim: โ€œSee what this person vowed and fulfilled to his beloved,โ€ that day when I will be appointed to be High Priest, I will wear your fine linen shirt and I will gird myself with your belt/girdle. His brethren the Priests desired to kill him, he recounted to him the entire event, they wished to kill Khonyo, he (i.e., Khonyo) ran from before them to the house of the King. And yet, everyone who sees him states that this is him, he went to Alexandria of Egypt where there were myriads of Jews and made there a Temple and built an altar and offered upon it in the name of God. And regarding that altar Isaiah prophesied (Isaiah 19:19): โ€œIn that day, there shall be an altar to the LORD inside the land of Egypt [and a pillar to the LORD at its border].โ€ And this House (i.e., Temple) stood for close to two hundred years and is called โ€œThe House of Khonyoโ€ in his name. And everyone agrees that the sacrifices that they would offer there were not a sacrifice. Therefore, whomever said, โ€œMay a burnt-offering sacrifice be upon meโ€ โ€“ and he offered it there did not fulfill his vow.

ืฉืืงืจื™ื‘ื ื” ื‘ื‘ื™ืช ื—ื•ื ื™ื• โ€“ it was made like one who says : โ€œMay a burnt-offering sacrifice be upon me on the condition that I will kill it and not be liable for it, therefore if he offered it in the House of Khonyo, he did not fulfill his vow, but he is liable for extirpation because he slaughters outside [the Temple courtyard], for he called upon it the designation of a burnt-offering.

ืจื‘ื™ ืฉืžืขื•ืŸ ืื•ืžืจ ืื™ืŸ ื–ื• ืขื•ืœื” โ€“ and behold it is completely unconsecrated, for the designation of consecrated does not occur to it at all when he stated that I will offer it in the House of Khonyo. But the Halalkha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

ื•ืื ื’ืœื— ื‘ื‘ื™ืช ื—ื•ื ื™ื• ืœื ื™ืฆื โ€“ but rather, he should return and shave [at the conclusion of his period of Naziriteship] in the Temple in Jerusalem, and there he should bring his sacrifices.

ืฉืื’ืœื— ื‘ื‘ื™ืช ื—ื•ื ื™ื• ืื ื’ืœื— ื‘ื‘ื™ืช ื—ื•ื ื™ื• ื™ืฆื โ€“ that this man who took the vow of becoming a Nazirite in order that he could shave in the House of Khonyo, he intended to cause himself suffering, but because he was close to the House of Khonyo and far from the land of Israel, he stated, โ€œIf I can [offer it] in the House of Khonyo, I will go to the trouble of doing so. More than that he is not able to cause himself suffering, but the designation of being a Nazirite does not fall upon him but he becomes like a person who took an oath that he would not drink wine until a certain time.

ืจื‘ื™ ืฉืžืขื•ืŸ ืื•ืžืจ โ€“ He is not a Nazirite at all and is permitted to drink wine. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

ื•ืื™ืŸ ืฆืจื™ืš ืœื•ืžืจ ืœื“ื‘ืจ ืื—ืจ โ€“ if they served for idolatry, they would not serve [as priests] any longer in Jerusalem.

ื•ื”ืจื™ ื”ืŸ ื›ื‘ืขืœื™ ืžื•ืžื™ืŸ (see Tractate Zevakhim, Chapter 12, Mishnah 1) โ€“ that they take their portions and eat Sacred Things [but do not offer sacrifices].
