הַשָּׁב מִידִיעָתוֹ מֵבִיא קָרְבָּן עַל שִׁגְגָתוֹ; אֵינוֹ שָׁב מִידִיעָתוֹ אֵינוֹ מֵבִיא קָרְבָּן עַל שִׁגְגָתוֹ.

English: One who would repent from knowledge brings an offering for his shegagah; one who would not repent from knowledge does not bring an offering for his shegagah.

In the sugya: The requirement of potential repentance upon knowledge excludes the persistent mumar from the chatas obligation.

Type of Learning

Miyut of the unrepentant mumar — a mumar who would not repent even if informed is excluded from bringing chatas.

What Is Learned

Only a person who would abandon the sin upon being informed of its prohibition is obligated to bring a chatas for shegagah. One who is a mumar and would continue the act even after knowledge is excluded from the offering, because the entire institution of shegagah assumes a baseline willingness to return.
