English: “You shall not turn into smoke from it a fire-offering to Hashem” — whatever had a portion for the fires is under the ban against turning seor and honey into smoke.
In the sugya: The closing rule summarizes the negative commandment across the spectrum of materials that once contributed to the ishim.
Type of Learning
Summary rule of the passuk’s negative commandment — seor and honey never become the altar’s isheh.
What Is Learned
Seor and honey never become the altar’s isheh. Where the Torah later allows seor (two loaves) or honey-fruit (bikkurim), it is not as a fire-offering of pleasing aroma on the altar.
