Zevachim 1:2-3
Zevachim 1:2
Yosi ben Choni says that sacrifices that are (erroneously) slaughtered as a Passover offering or a sin-offering are invalid. Shimon the brother of Azariah says that if one slaughtered a sacrifice in the name of a different sacrifice that is of a higher degree of sanctity, it is valid; in a lower name, it is invalid. Most sacrifices slaughtered under the name of sacrifices of lesser sanctity are invalid but sacrifices of lesser sanctity slaughtered under the name of holier sacrifices are valid. For example, a first-born animal or tithe animal that was slaughtered as a peace offering is valid but a peace-offering that was slaughtered as a first-born animal or a tithe animal is invalid.
Zevachim 1:2
If a Passover offering was slaughtered on the morning of the 14 Nisan not as a Passover offering, Rabbi Yehoshua says it is valid, just like a sacrifice offered on 13 Nisan (since neither is yet the time for the Passover offering). Ben Beseira says that it is invalid, just like one slaughtered after midday (on 14 Nisan, which is the time for the Passover offering). Shimon ben Azzai related a tradition that he received from 72 elders on the day that Rabbi Elazar ben Azariah was installed as head of the academy in Yavne that any type of sacrifice that may be eaten, if it was slaughtered under the wrong name, is valid but the owners have not fulfilled their obligation; the exceptions are the Passover offering and the sin offering (which are invalid). Ben Azzai also included burnt offerings but the Sages did not agree with him.
