שחטו שלא לאוכליו. חולה וזקן וקטן שאין יכולין לאכול כזית בשר, ואין בו מנויין אחרים אלא הן, פסול, דלפי אכלו כתיב (שם), הראוי לאכול:
שלא למנוייו. נמנו עליו חבורה זו ושחטו לשם חבורה אחרת:
לערלים. לישראלים שמתו אחיהם מחמת מילה, והני פסולים לאכול פסח. דכתיב (שם) וכל ערל לא יאכל בו. וטמאים נמי אסורין בקדשים, ובכרת הן על אכילתן:
לאוכליו ושלא לאוכליו כשר. ולא דמי לשמו ושלא לשמו דפסול, דהתם פסולו בגופו שהמחשבה שפוסלתו היתה בגופו של קרבן, אבל לאוכליו ושלא לאוכליו אין המחשבה הפוסלת בגופו של קרבן אלא בדבר שהוא חוץ ממנו:
ממרס בדמו. שלא יקרוש כדי שיהא ראוי לזריקה:
ואם זרק קודם לתמיד כשר. דאע״ג דפסח מאוחר לתמיד משום דכתיב ביה בערב ובין הערבים, לא מפסל בהכי:
Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Pesachim Perek 5 Mishnah 4
פסחים פרק ה׳ משנה ד׳
Bartenura
השוחט את הפסח על החמץ – that is to say, at the time of the slaughtering [of the Passover offering], there was leaven in the domain of the slaughterer or one of the members of his group, even if there was no Hametz in the courtyard [of the Temple]
He violates a negative commandment - of (Exodus 34:25): “You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with anything leavened,” and the sacrifice itself is not made invalid.
אף תמיד – of the twilight on the Eve of Passover that was slaughtered with leaven that for there was leaven in the domain of the slaughterer or the person offering the sacrifice violates a negative commandment, for he expounds upon the word, “[the blood of] My sacrifice” (Exodus 34:26) that is special to me, and that is the whole daily-offering , but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.
ר' שמעון אומר הפסח בי"ד – that he slaughtered it with leaven for its sake, he is liable because of “You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with anything leavened,” (Exodus 34:25) for the Passover Sacrifice is valid/fit and the slaughtering is appropriate and it is for the purpose of slaughtering.
שלא לשמו פטור – that it is invalid and it is a slaughtering that is not worthy and not for the sake of slaughtering.
ושאר כל הזבחים – that were slaughtered on the fourteen [of Nisan] after noon with leaven.
בין לשמן בין שלא לשמן פטור – for even though they are fit, as it is taught in the Mishnah (Tractate Zevakhim, Chapter 1, Mishnah 1 AND Tractate Yadayim, Chapter 4, Mishnah 2): “All the animal offerings that were slaughtered not for their own name are valid, etc.” nevertheless, they are exempt, as it is written: (Exodus 34:25): “My sacrifice,” “My sacrifice” twice: “You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice [with anything leavened].” (Exodus 24:25) and (Exodus 23:18): ‘You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with anything leavened.” And what Halakha did the All-Merciful separate them and not write “My sacrifice” in one verse? And everything is implied, whether regarding the Passover offering or regarding all the rest of the animal sacrifices, to tell you that at the time when there is an animal sacrifice that is, on the fourteenth [of Nisan] when there is the Passover offering, he is not liable for the rest of the animal sacrifices, and at the time when there isn’t an animal sacrifice, such as during the Passover, he is liable for the other animal sacrifices if they were slaughtered with leaven.
ובמועד – during the Passover holiday, if it was for the sake/in its name that it was slaughtered for the Passover offering with leaven,
it is exempt from “You shall not offer [the blood of My sacrifice with anything leavened]” (Exodus 34:25), for a Passover offering that was not at its appropriate time, for its sake, is invalid, and it is a slaughtering that is not appropriate.
שלא לשמו – but for the sake of peace-offerings,
one is liable, for this is what it refers to that it should be the appropriate slaughtering, and he is liable because of “You shall not offer,” with the negative commandment of (Exodus 13:7), “no leaven shall be seen with you” and (Exodus 12:19): “no leaven shall be found in your houses for seven days.”
ושאר כל הזבחים – that were slaughtered during the Festival [of Passover] with leaven.
בין לשמן בין שלא לשמן חייב – for the Biblical verse on the rest of the offerings is also a warning.
חוץ מן החטאת ששחטה שלא לשמה – and it is invalid because it is written regarding the slaughtering of a sin-offering, it and not what was slaughtered not for its own sake.
השוחט את הפסח על החמץ. כלומר ובשעת שחיטה היה חמץ ברשות השוחט או אחד מבני חבורה, אפילו לא היה החמץ בעזרה:
עובר בלא תעשה. דלא תשחט על חמץ דם זבחי (שמות לד). ואין הזבח נפסל:
אף התמיד. של בין הערבים דערבי פסחים ששחטו על חמץ, שהיה חמץ ברשות השוחט או המקריב, עובר בלאו, דדריש זבחי, המיוחד לי, והוא התמיד. ואין הלכה כרבי יהודה:
רבי שמעון אומר הפסח בארבעה עשר. ששחטו על חמץ, לשמו חייב, משום לא תשחט על חמץ, דפסח כשר הוא ושחיטה ראוייה היא ושמה שחיטה:
שלא לשמו פטור. דפסול הוא ושחיטה שאינה ראויה היא ולאו שמה שחיטה:
ושאר כל הזבחים. שנשחטו בי״ד אחר חצות על החמץ:
בין לשמן בין שלא לשמן פטור. ואע״פ שכשרים הן כדתנן כל הזבחים שנזבחו שלא לשמן כשרים וכו׳, אע״פ כן פטור, דכתיב זבחי זבחי שני פעמים, לא תשחט על חמץ דם זבחי ולא תזבח על חמץ דם זבחי (שם כג), ולמאי הלכתא פלגינהו רחמנא ולא כתב זבחיי בחד קרא והכל במשמע בין פסח בין שאר זבחים, לומר לך בזמן דאיכא זבח דהיינו בי״ד דאיכא פסח לא מחייב אשאר זבחים, ובזמן דליכא זבח כגון בתוך הפסח מחייב אשאר זבחים אם שחטן על חמץ:
ובמועד. בתוך הפסח, אם לשמו שחטו לפסח על החמץ:
פטור. מלא תשחט, דפסח שלא בזמנו לשמו פסול, והויא לה שחיטה שאינה ראויה:
שלא לשמו. אלא לשם שלמים:
חייב. דלהכי קאי והויא לה שחיטה ראויה, וחייב משום לא תשחט, בהדי לאו דלא יראה ולא ימצא:
ושאר כל הזבחים. שנזבחו בתוך המועד על חמץ:
בין לשמן בין שלא לשמן חייב. דקרא אשאר זבחים נמי אזהר:
חוץ מן החטאת ששחטה שלא לשמה. דפסולה היא משום דכתיב בשחיטתה חטאת היא, היא ולא הנשחטה שלא לשמה:

שחטו שלא לאוכליו – a sick person or an old person or a minor who are unable to eat an olive’s bulk of meat and there aren’t other appointments to office other than these. It is invalid since it is written (Exodus 12:4): “according to what each household will eat.”
למנוייו – he was registered for this group and he slaughtered it for another group.
לערלים – For Israelites whose brothers died on account of circumcisions, and these are invalid to eat the Passover sacrifice, as it is written (Exodus 12:48): “But no uncircumcised person may eat of it.” And those who are impure are forbidden to Holy things and they are liable to extirpation on their eating it.
לאוכליו ושלא לאוכליו כשר – and it is not similar to for its sake and not for its sake, for invalid that is there – is his being invalid in his body. For the thought that makes him invalid was in the body of the sacrifice, but for those eat it and for those who don’t eat it, the thought does not invalidate ממthe body of the sacrifice, but rather something which is outside of it.
ממרס בדמו – that the blood not become congealed so that it would be worthy for casting/tossing.
ואם זרק קודם לתמיד כשר – since even though the Passover offering is later than the daily whole burnt offering because it is written concerning it (Deuteronomy 16:7 – see Pesahim 59a): “[and none of the flesh of] what you slaughter on the evening…,” and “at twilight” (Exodus 12:6) does not made invalid through this.
