Menahot 108: Keeping Track of What You've Vowed to Sacrifice

from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

More on the collection horns - and why there were 6 of them. Plus, the case of an animal that has been dedicated as an offering and then it becomes blemished before it is sacrificed - perhaps he could replace the 1 animal with 2 others (and what if then those 2 are blemished too?). Could a different kind of animal be swapped? Of course, each unusual case is a matter of dispute. With a deep dive into the possibility of replacing the blemished offering with something that might have been perceived as lesser than the original - to the extent that Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi did not accept those replacement possibilities to begin with. And another mishnah: what happens when there is confusion regarding which offering has already been consecrated. Starting with the larger one (of two). Or the middle one (of three). And defaulting to the most generous option.
