English: “And he shall take a handful from there” — from the place where the zar’s feet stand.
In the sugya: “From there” is understood as the area still accessible to a non-kohen, before the altar’s restricted zone.
Type of Learning
Diyuk of misham for location of kemitzah — the handful is taken in the zar-accessible area.
What Is Learned
Kemitzah is performed in the area accessible to a non-kohen (before the altar proper). The word “from there” locates the act in the place where a zar may stand, so the handful is taken outside the innermost restricted space of the altar.
