Mishnayos Menachos Perek 13 Mishnah 8

מנחות פרק י"ג משנה ח׳

8

One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a bull as a burnt offering or peace offering, must bring the bull, its accompanying meal offering, and its libations, with the total value of one hundred dinars. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a calf, must bring the calf, its accompanying meal offering, and its libations, with the total value of five sela, which equal twenty dinars. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a ram, must bring the ram, its accompanying meal offering, and its libations, with the value of two sela, which equal eight dinars. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a lamb, must bring the lamb, its accompanying meal offering, and its libations, with the value of one sela, which equals four dinars. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a bull with the value of one hundred dinars as a burnt offering or peace offering, must bring the bull with the value of one hundred dinars excluding its accompanying meal offering and libations. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a calf with the value of five sela as a burnt offering or peace offering, must bring the calf with the value of five sela excluding its accompanying meal offering and libations. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a ram with the value of two sela as a burnt offering or peace offering, must bring the ram with the value of two sela excluding its accompanying meal offering and libations. One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a lamb with the value of one sela as a burnt offering or peace offering, must bring the lamb with the value of one sela excluding its accompanying meal offering and libations. If one said: It is incumbent upon me to bring a bull with the value of one hundred dinars as a burnt offering or peace offering, and he brought two bulls with a combined value of one hundred dinars, he has not fulfilled his obligation. And that is the halakha even if this bull has the value of one hundred dinars less one dinar and that bull has the value of one hundred dinars less one dinar. If one said: It is incumbent upon me to bring a black bull, and he brought a white bull; or said: It is incumbent upon me to bring a white bull, and he brought a black bull; or said: It is incumbent upon me to bring a large bull, and he brought a small bull, in all these cases he has not fulfilled his obligation. But if he said: It is incumbent upon me to bring a small bull, and he brought a large bull, he has fulfilled his obligation, as the value of a small bull is included in the value of a large bull. Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi says: He has not fulfilled his obligation, as the offering that he brought did not correspond to his vow.

הֲרֵי עָלַי שׁוֹר, יָבִיא הוּא וּנְסָכָיו בְּמָנֶה. עֵגֶל, יָבִיא הוּא וּנְסָכָיו בְּחָמֵשׁ. אַיִל, יָבִיא הוּא וּנְסָכָיו בִּשְׁתַּיִם. כֶּבֶשׂ, יָבִיא הוּא וּנְסָכָיו בְּסָלַע. שׁוֹר בְּמָנֶה, יָבִיא בְמָנֶה חוּץ מִנְּסָכָיו. עֵגֶל בְּחָמֵשׁ, יָבִיא בְחָמֵשׁ חוּץ מִנְּסָכָיו. אַיִל בִּשְׁתַּיִם, יָבִיא בִשְׁתַּיִם חוּץ מִנְּסָכָיו. כֶּבֶשׂ בְּסֶלַע, יָבִיא בְסֶלַע חוּץ מִנְּסָכָיו. שׁוֹר בְּמָנֶה וְהֵבִיא שְׁנַיִם בְּמָנֶה, לֹא יָצָא, אֲפִלּוּ זֶה בְמָנֶה חָסֵר דִּינָר וְזֶה בְמָנֶה חָסֵר דִּינָר. שָׁחוֹר וְהֵבִיא לָבָן, לָבָן וְהֵבִיא שָׁחוֹר, גָּדוֹל וְהֵבִיא קָטָן, לֹא יָצָא. קָטָן וְהֵבִיא גָדוֹל, יָצָא. רַבִּי אוֹמֵר, לֹא יָצָא:

Bartenura

יביא הוא ונכסיו במנה – such is explained its law in the Oral Tradition that the value of a bullock with its libations is a Maneh (i.e., 100 denar).

עגל יביא הוא ונסכיו בחמש – [five] Selas (i.e., one Sela equals four Denars).

אמר הרי עלי שור במנה – he should bring it for a Maneh (i.e., a Maneh equals twenty-five Selas), except for its libations, for such is what they (i.e., the Rabbis) established.

שור במנה הביא שנים במנה לא יצא – for it was established that a bull is with a Maneh.

קטן והביא גדול יצא. רבי אומר לא יצא – because of this, it (i.e., the Mishnah) teaches the dispute of Rabbi [Judah the Prince] and the Rabbis here in the concluding clause, to explain, that the opening clause is not the opinions of all but rather that it is that of Rabbi [Judah the Prince] and not the Sages, and the Halakha is not according to Rabbi [Judah the Prince].

יביא הוא ונסכיו במנה. כך נתפרש דינו בתורה שבעל פה, שיהא ערך השור עם נסכיו מנה:

עגל יביא הוא ונסכיו בחמש. סלעים:

אמר הרי עלי שור במנה. יביאנו במנה חוץ מנסכיו שהרי כך קבעו:

שור במנה והביא שנים במנה לא יצא. שהרי קבע שור במנה:

קטן והביא גדול יצא, רבי אומר לא יצא. משום הכי תנא פלוגתא דרבי ורבנן הכא בסיפא, לפרושי, דרישא לאו דברי הכל היא אלא רבי היא ולא רבנן ואין הלכה כרבי:
