1) SACRIFICES THAT CANNOT BE BROUGHT FOR NEZIRIYOS

(a) (Mishnah): A woman accepted Nezirus and designated an animal for the sacrifice; her husband annulled her Nezirus.

1. If it was his animal, it may graze with the flock (it has no Kedushah);
2. If it was her animal - if it was a sin-offering, it must die; if it was a burnt-offering, it is offered as a burnt-offering; if it was a Shelamim, it is offered as a Shelamim, but it may only be eaten for 1 day, and bread is not brought with it.

i. If she set aside money for the sacrifices, without specifying for which - it goes to Nedavah (to buy communal burnt-offerings so the Altar will not be idle);
ii. If she specified money for each sacrifice - the money for the sin-offering is thrown into the Dead Sea. We may not benefit from it; if one benefited, he is not liable for Me'ilah;
iii. Money specified for the burnt-offering are used to buy a burnt-offering. If one benefited from the money, he is liable for Me'ilah;
iv. Money specified for the Shelamim are used to buy a Shelamim. It is eaten for 1 day and night, and bread is not brought with it.

(a) (Gemara) Version #1 - Question: Who is the Tana of our Mishnah, who holds that a husband is not obligated to pay for his wife's sacrifices?
(b) Answer (Rav Chisda): The Chachamim that argue with R. Yehudah.

1. It cannot be R. Yehudah - since he says the husband is obligated, if she designated one of his animals, it would remain Kodesh!
2. (Beraisa - R. Yehudah): A wife that must bring a sacrifice, even if she is poor, her husband (if he is rich) must bring the sacrifice of a rich person on her behalf;
3. All sacrifices she must bring, he must pay for - for so he wrote to her (in the Kesuvah) 'All obligations which you have are upon me' (Tosfos' text - she writes to him (in the receipt for payment of her Kesuvah) 'All obligations which I have upon you (are pardoned)'.)

(c) Rejection (Rava): The Mishnah can even be as R. Yehudah - he is only obligated to pay for what she truly needs. (Since he annulled her Nezirus, she has no need for the sacrifices.)
(d) Version #2 - Question: Who is the Tana of our Mishnah?
(e) Answer (Rav Chisda): R. Yehudah - a husband is only obligated to pay for what his wife truly needs.

1. It cannot be Chachamim - they say that he has no obligation to pay for her sacrifices at all!
2. According to Chachamim, if he gave her an animal to use for a sacrifice, she would need a legal acquisition - if so, there would be no distinction between his animal and hers!

(f) Rejection (Rava): The Mishnah can be as Chachamim; he only allows her to acquire what she truly needs.
(g) (Mishnah): If the animal was hers, the sin-offering must die, the burnt-offering is offered.
(h) Question: From where would she own an animal - a husband owns whatever his wife acquires!
(i) Answer #1 (Rav Papa): She ate less than normal and saved the difference.
(j) Answer #2: Someone else gave her an animal on condition that her husband does not acquire it.

(a) (Mishnah): The burnt-offering is offered, and the Shelamim is offered ...
(b) Shmuel: Please explain the following Beraisa! '4 rams (Shelamim offerings of a Nazir) are brought without bread - hers, his, after death, and after atonement.'
(c) (Avuha Bar Ihi): Hers - as in our Mishnah.

1. His - as taught in the following Mishnah.

i. (Mishnah): A man can impose Nezirus on his son; a woman cannot impose Nezirus on her son;
ii. If the son shaved or protested, or relatives shaved him or protested (this annuls the Nezirus his father put upon him): if money was designated for the sacrifices but not specified for which, it goes to Nedavah;
iii. If money was specified for each sacrifice - the money for the sin-offering is thrown into the Dead Sea. We may not benefit from it; if one benefited, he is not liable for Me'ilah;
iv. Money specified for the burnt-offering is used to buy a burnt-offering. If one benefited from the money, he is liable for Me'ilah;
v. Money specified for the Shelamim is used to buy a Shelamim. It is eaten for 1 day, and bread is not brought with it.

2. Question: What is the source that if the Nazir died, the Shelamim is brought without bread?
3. Answer (Beraisa): One who designates money for the sacrifices of his Nezirus - we may not benefit from it; if one benefited, he is not liable for Me'ilah, because all the money could be used to buy the Shelamim;

i. If he died, and money was designated for the sacrifices but not specified for which, it goes to Nedavah;
ii. If money was specified for each sacrifice - the money for the sin-offering is thrown into the Dead Sea. We may not benefit from it; if one benefited, he is not liable for Me'ilah;
iii. Money specified for the burnt-offering is used to buy a burnt-offering. If one benefited from the money, he is liable for Me'ilah;
iv. Money specified for the Shelamim is used to buy a Shelamim. It is eaten for 1 day, and bread is not brought with it.

4. We may deduce that the same applies if the Nazir offered a different animal.

i. When the Nazir died, the Shelamim is offered without bread because it is no longer fitting to atone for him - the same applies if the Nazir brought a different animal!

(d) Question: Are there really no other cases?

1. (Beraisa): All other Shelamim offerings of a Nazir, which were slaughtered improperly, are valid, but the Nazir did not fulfill his obligation!

i. The Shelamim is eaten for 1 day, and the laws of bread and the foreleg do not apply.

(e) Answer: The Tana only listed sacrifices that were offered properly.
(f) (Mishnah): If money was designated for the sacrifices but not specified for which, it goes to Nedavah.
