English: “From the bird” — and not every bird (a dried wing, a severed leg, a gouged eye — invalid).
In the sugya: “Min ha-of” is read as a selective miyut. Not every bird that flies is eligible; certain permanent defects of wing, leg, or eye disqualify the specimen for olah, even though the parallel animal rules may differ in detail.
Type of Learning
Miyut from “min ha-of” — excluding defective birds.
What Is Learned
A bird brought as olah must be intact. A dried wing, a severed leg, or a gouged eye renders the bird pasul. The verse’s “from the bird” selects only a sound specimen; serious defects bar the offering even where animal-olah disqualifications are framed differently.
