Menahot 58: Honey on the Altar (and Muzzling)
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
More on when the grain-offerings can have chametz/leaven and when they cannot. And the prohibition again honey on the altar -- and if there are exceptions regarding leaven, there are none, according to this Gemara, for honey. But there are still minor exceptions for the honey as well - in terms of what the kohanim themselves can eat. Plus, what happens when these factors are indeed violated? When in the point of violation is the sinner subject to lashes? Plus, whether the prohibition is specific or not - which leads to the prohibition against muzzling, unexpected though that is.
