חגיגה ב׳:ד׳ - ב׳:ה׳

יום טבוח –the day of the slaughter of the burnt-offerings of appearance [at the Temple] of the Festival day. לאחר השבת – they are not offered either on the Festival day nor on Shabbat. But [the holiday] of Atzeret/Shavuot has indemnity/payment all seven [days] like Passover and Shavuot.

וב"ה אומרים אין לה יום טבוח – it does not require the slaughtering and preparation of the pilgrim’s offering, as it is permitted to offer them on the Festival days. As the School of Hillel, according to its reasoning when they state that we bring peace-offerings and burnt offerings on the Festival days, and the Tanna/teacher comes to teach us that even where it is impossible to do it on the morrow, such as the case where Shavuot occurs on Friday, even in this, the School of Shammai states that the burnt-offerings of appearance [at the Temple] are not offered on the Festival day, and they postponed it it until after the Sabbath.

אין כהן גדול מתלבש – in his beautiful utensils/raiment, on the day of slaughter and preparation of the pilgrim’s offering of Atzeret/Shavuot that is after the Sabbath, in order that he should not adorn himself on that self-same day, that everyone would understand that this day is not a Festival.

שלא לקיים דברי האומרים עצרת אחר שבת – for the Sadducees would say that Atzeret/Shavuot always [occurs] after Shabbat, as it is written (Leviticus 23:15): “And from [the day on which you bring the sheaf of elevation offering] – the day after the sabbath, [you shall count off seven weeks. They must be complete],” and they say that “the day after the sabbath” in the beginning [of Passover] and if so, Atzeret/Shavuot will always fall on Sunday.

נוטלין לידים לחולין ולמעשר ולתרומה – for profane things, Second Tithe and Priest’s due, it is sufficient for them by washing [hands] with a utensil which does not have within it other than one-quarter of a log of water.

ולקדש מטבילין – the explanation is to consume peace-offerings, sin-offerings and guilt-offerings. There is a greater degree/level, that it is necessary to immerse one’s hands in one-hundred Seah, and even though they are not other than mere hands, that did not come in contact with impurity that defiles the entire body according to the Torah.

ולחטאת – to come in contact with the water of the sin-offering, sanctified water with the ashes of the red heifer to sprinkle from them upon those who are defiled through contact with the dead. There is a greater level/degree that if one’s hands became defiled through one of the things that defile the hands but not the body, such as a [sacred] book, or impure foods and impure liquids, and all defilements that [come] from the words of the Scribes the body is also defiled and the entire body requires ritual immersion. And all of these levels/degrees one higher than the next are from the words of the Scribes. But the fact that these were taken here concerning the laws of the Hagigah/Festival offering is because at their conclusion the laws of the Festival, for the ignoramuses/Amei HaAretz are considered ritually pure on the Festivals, but not on the rest of the days of the year, at the conclusion of [the third chapter of Hagigah], “There is a greater stringency regarding hallowed things.”
