One last
item of thought regarding the Parsha. We are all familiar with the Lo Sasei,
the Lav, the prohibition against Nossar, which means leaving a Korban which has
to be eaten or has to be burned past its time. So that we have for example a
Korban Todah which is eaten for a day and a night, Lo Sasiru Mimenu Ad Haboker,
you are not allowed to leave it until the morning.
The Shelamim which is eaten for two days and a
night one would not be allowed to leave after the following night. However,
what is very strange and the Meshech Chochmo points this out, is that every
time the Torah mentions a prohibition an Issur against the Nossar (leaving
something over) it is always a language of Lo Yaniach Mimenu Ad Haboker or Lo
Sasiru Mimenu Ad Haboker, Lo Yalin Cheilev Chagi Ad Boker. It is always a
language of not leaving it until the morning. Which means that it is talking
about a Korban that is eaten for a day and a night. Regarding a Korban such as
a Shelamim which is eaten for two days there is really no clear prohibition in
the Torah. That could use a good explanation as to why that should be. Why does
the Torah only mention Nossar in regard to not leaving things until the morning
and never in regards to not leaving things at night.
