| ושור או שה אתו ואת בנו לא תשחטו ביום אחד (ויקרא כב:כח)י | |
| מסכת חולין פרק ה משנה א | |
| אותו ואת בנו |
[The prohibition against slaughtering on the same day] it (a female domestic animal, i.e. a beheima) and its son (or other offspring) |
| נוהג בין בארץ | is observed both in Israel |
| בין בחוצה לארץ | and outside of Israel; |
| בפני הבית | before the Temple (i.e. while the Temple stood) |
| ושלא בפני הבית | and not before the Temple; |
| בחלין ובמקדשין | to the unconsecrated and consecrated. |
| כיצד | How so? |
| השוחט אותו ואת בנו | One who slaughters it and its son, |
| חלין בחוץ | [which were] unconsecrated, outside [the Temple], |
| שניהם כשרים | both are kosher |
| והשני | and [the slaughterer of] the second (regardless of whether the mother or offspring was slaughtered first) |
| סופג את הארבעים | receives the forty [lashes]. |
| קדשים בחוץ | [If the animals were both] consecrated and [slaughtered] outside [the Temple] |
| הראשון חיב כרת | [for slaughtering] the first one he incurs kares (for the sin of slaughtering a sacrifice outside the Temple; although if he received a warning in advance not to do so, he only receives the lashes which absolve him from kares. Note that such punishment is meted out for the second animal, as through the first's slaughter the second became unfit to be brought as a sacrifice that day); |
| ושניהם פסולים | both are unfit [to be used as a sacrifice]; |
| ושניהם סופגין את הארבעים | and [for] both [the slaughterer] receives the forty [lashes] (the first for slaughtering a sacrifice outside the Temple, the second for slaughtering a mother or her offspring on the same day). |
| חלין בפנים | An unconsecrated [mother and offsrping that were slaughtered on the same date] within the Temple, |
| שניהם פסולים | both are unfit (it is forbidden to have any benefit from unconsecrated animals slaughtered in the Temple) |
| והשני סופג את הארבעים | and [the slaughterer of] the second receives the forty [lashes] (no such punishment is meted out for slaughtering unconsecrated animals in the Temple, as such is only a violation of a positive commandment). |
| קדשים בפנים | Consecrated [animals] inside [the Temple], |
| הראשון כשר ופטור | the first is valid and he is exempt (as it was slaughtered properly), |
| והשני סופג את הארבעים | and [the slaughterer of] the second receives the forty [lashes] (for slaughtering a mother and offspring on the same day) |
| ופסול | and it is invalid (because a sacrifice is invalid if slaughtered at a time before it was permissible to do so, and since the mother and offspring cannot be slaughtered on the same day; after the first was slaughtered, the second was required to wait until at least the next day to be slaughtered). |
