- Leviticus 10:16
וְאֵת ׀ שְׂעִיר הַחַטָּאת דָּרֹשׁ דָּרַשׁ מֹשֶׁה וְהִנֵּה שֹׂרָף וַיִּקְצֹף עַל־אֶלְעָזָר וְעַל־אִיתָמָר בְּנֵי אַהֲרֹן הַנּוֹתָרִם לֵאמֹר׃
Then Moses inquired about the goat of purgation offering, and it had already been burned! He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s remaining sons, and said,
Targum Onkelos
וְיָת צְפִירָא דְּחַטָּתָא מִתְבָּע תַּבְעֵיהּ מֹשֶׁה וְהָא אִתּוֹקַד וּרְגֵיז עַל אֶלְעָזָר וְעַל אִיתָמָר בְּנֵי אַהֲרֹן דְּאִשְׁתְּאַרוּ לְמֵימַר׃
Regarding the goat of the sin-offering; Moshe made a detailed inquiry and behold! It was burned. He was angry with Elozor and Isomor, the remaining sons of Aharon, saying:
- Leviticus 10:17
מַדּוּעַ לֹא־אֲכַלְתֶּם אֶת־הַחַטָּאת בִּמְקוֹם הַקֹּדֶשׁ כִּי קֹדֶשׁ קׇדָשִׁים הִוא וְאֹתָהּ ׀ נָתַן לָכֶם לָשֵׂאת אֶת־עֲוֺן הָעֵדָה לְכַפֵּר עֲלֵיהֶם לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה׃
“Why did you not eat the purgation offering in the sacred area? For it is most holy, and it is what was given to you to remove the guilt of the community and to make expiation for them before GOD.
Targum Onkelos
מָדֵין לָא אֲכַלְתּוּן יָת חַטָּתָא בַּאֲתַר קַדִּישׁ אֲרֵי קֹדֶשׁ קוּדְשִׁין הִיא וְיָתַהּ יְהַב לְכוֹן לְסַלָּחָא עַל חוֹבֵי כְּנִשְׁתָּא לְכַפָּרָא עֲלֵיהוֹן קֳדָם יְיָ׃
Why did you not eat the sin-offering in a sacred place, for it is holy of holies [=most holy], and He gave it to you, to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to atone for them before Adonoy.
- Leviticus 10:18
הֵן לֹא־הוּבָא אֶת־דָּמָהּ אֶל־הַקֹּדֶשׁ פְּנִימָה אָכוֹל תֹּאכְלוּ אֹתָהּ בַּקֹּדֶשׁ כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוֵּיתִי׃
Since its blood was not brought inside the sanctuary, you should certainly have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”
Targum Onkelos
הָא לָא אִתָּעַל מִדְּמַהּ לְבֵית קוּדְשָׁא גַּוָּואָה מֵיכָל תֵּיכְלוּן יָתַהּ בְּקוּדְשָׁא כְּמָא דְּפַקֵּידִית׃
Behold its blood was not brought inside the Sanctuary, you should certainly have eaten it in a holy place as I have commanded.
- Leviticus 10:19
וַיְדַבֵּר אַהֲרֹן אֶל־מֹשֶׁה הֵן הַיּוֹם הִקְרִיבוּ אֶת־חַטָּאתָם וְאֶת־עֹלָתָם לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה וַתִּקְרֶאנָה אֹתִי כָּאֵלֶּה וְאָכַלְתִּי חַטָּאת הַיּוֹם הַיִּיטַב בְּעֵינֵי יְהֹוָה׃
And Aaron spoke to Moses, “See, this day they brought their purgation offering and their burnt offering before GOD, and such things have befallen me! Had I eaten purgation offering today, would GOD have approved?”
Targum Onkelos
וּמַלֵּיל אַהֲרֹן עִם מֹשֶׁה הָא יוֹמָא דֵין קָרִיבוּ יָת חַטָּוָותְהוֹן וְיָת עֲלָוָותְהוֹן קֳדָם יְיָ וְעָרַעָא יָתִי עָקָן כְּאִלֵּין אִלּוּ פוֹן אֲכַלִית חַטָּתָא יוֹמָא דֵין הֲתָקֵין קֳדָם יְיָ׃
Aharon spoke [in reply] to Moshe, Behold, today they brought their sin-offerings and their burnt-offerings before Adonoy and then such [tragedy] befell me. If I had eaten the sin-offering today, would that have been good in the eyes of [fitting before] Adonoy?
- Leviticus 10:20
וַיִּשְׁמַע מֹשֶׁה וַיִּיטַב בְּעֵינָיו׃
And when Moses heard this, he approved.
Targum Onkelos
וּשְׁמַע מֹשֶׁה וּשְׁפַר בְּעֵינוֹהִי׃
Moshe heard, and it was good [pleasing] in his eyes.
