נִתּוּחַ קוֹדֵם לְהַקְטָרָה.

English: Dismemberment precedes burning.

In the sugya: The order of the chatas bull’s service is fixed: the animal is cut into its prescribed pieces before any part is placed on the fire outside the camp.

Type of Learning

Order of service — dismemberment must precede the burning of the chatas bull.

What Is Learned

The bull of the High Priest’s chatas is first dismembered and only afterward burned. The Gemara’s terse rule establishes the sequence that governs every such offering: nituach before haktarah. Burning an intact carcass would invert the prescribed order of the avodah.
