We learned only voluntary sacrifices whose meat is eaten by the owner of the offering can be purchased with money from redeemed ma’aser sheni. Such money cannot be used to purchase obligatory sacrifices – even those whose meat is eaten by the owner – since obligatory sacrifices can only come from ordinary money and not from sanctified money.
The Mishna on our daf searches for a source for this law. The passage that is suggested says that the korban Pesaḥ must be brought from tzon u’bakar – “the flock and the herd”, i.e. cattle (see Devarim 16:2). We know, however, that only certain types of cattle can be used for the korban Pesaḥ – specifically a lamb or a goat (see Shemot 12:5).
The Mishna concludes that the purpose of using a broader term – “cattle” – is to connect other sacrifices to the korban Pesaḥ so that we can conclude that just as the korban Pesaḥ is brought from personal funds and not sanctified money (since at the time when the first korban Pesaḥ was brought the laws of sanctified money did not yet exist), similarly, all other obligatory sacrifices must come from personal funds and not from sanctified money.We learned only voluntary sacrifices whose meat is eaten by the owner of the offering can be purchased with money from redeemed ma’aser sheni.
