נֶפֶשׁ כִּי־תִמְעֹל מַעַל וְחָטְאָה בִּשְׁגָגָה מִקָּדְשֵׁי יְהוָה וְהֵבִיא אֶת־אֲשָׁמוֹ לַיהוָה אַיִל תָּמִים מִן־הַצֹּאן בְּעֶרְכְּךָ כֶּסֶף־שְׁקָלִים בְּשֶׁקֶל־הַקֹּדֶשׁ לְאָשָׁם׃

Source Citation

Torah Temimah cites Meilah 18a.

Sefaria — Meilah 18a · E-Daf

Core Text — Meilah 18a
וְהֵבִיא אֶת אֲשָׁמוֹ — אַף לְאַחַר יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים; אֵין יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים מְכַפֵּר בְּלֹא הַבָּאַת אָשָׁם.

“And he shall bring his asham” — even after Yom Kippur; Yom Kippur does not atone without bringing the asham.

In the sugya: The obligation to bring the asham ram is not canceled by the arrival of Yom Kippur. The Day of Atonement does not substitute for the required offering; the ram must still be brought.

Type of Learning

Diyuk of “et ashamo” — the asham remains obligatory even after Yom Kippur.

What Is Learned

Me’ilah is not fully atoned by the Day of Atonement alone; the ram must still be brought. Yom Kippur does not erase the concrete obligation of the asham. The Torah’s language requires the actual bringing of the offering.
