מעילה פרק ב׳ משנה ג׳

3

One is liable for misuse of bulls that are burned and goats that are burned from the moment that they were consecrated. Once they were slaughtered, they were rendered susceptible to disqualification for sacrifice through contact with one who immersed that day, and through contact with one who has not yet brought an atonement offering, and through its blood being left overnight. Once its blood was sprinkled, one is liable to receive karet for eating it, due to violation of the prohibition of piggul, and the prohibition of notar, and the prohibition of partaking of sacrificial meat while ritually impure. And one is liable for its misuse even when it is in the place of the ashes, until the flesh has been completely scorched.

פָּרִים הַנִּשְׂרָפִין וּשְׂעִירִים הַנִּשְׂרָפִין, מוֹעֲלִין בָּהֶן מִשֶּׁהֻקְדְּשׁוּ. נִשְׁחֲטוּ, הֻכְשְׁרוּ לְהִפָּסֵל בִּטְבוּל יוֹם וּבִמְחֻסַּר כִּפּוּרִים וּבְלִינָה. הֻזָּה דָמָן, חַיָּבִין עֲלֵיהֶן מִשּׁוּם פִּגּוּל, נוֹתָר וְטָמֵא. וּמוֹעֲלִין בָּהֶן בְּבֵית הַדֶּשֶׁן עַד שֶׁיֻּתַּךְ הַבָּשָׂר:

Bartenura

פרים הנשרפים – for the Kohanim do not have a moment of availability [for use] at all.

הוזה דמן כו' – the sprinkling of their blood establishes them for inappropriate intention to be punishable by extirpation for a person who eats of them, if he had in mind an undue intention [in the performance of a sacrificial ceremony] at the time of the ritual slaughter to offer their portions of the sacrifices offered on the altar outside of their appropriate time, for since there is no moment of availability [for use] by the Kohanim, they commit religious sacrilege with them in the house of the ashes outside of the camp where they were burned if he benefited from them.

עד שיתך הבשר (until the flesh is charred in small lumps) – that is to say, that it will be burned and become charcoal/used for kindling. But after it is charred into small lumps, furthermore, there is no sacrilege, for there is nothing where its command is performed where one commits religious sacrilege.

פרים הנשרפים. אין בהן לכהנים היתר כלל:

הוזה דמן כו׳ הזאת דמן קובעתן לפגול לענוש כרת האוכל מהן אם חישב עליהם בשעת שחיטה להקטיר אימוריהן חוץ לזמנן, וכיון דלית בהו היתר לכהנים, מועלין בהן בבית הדשן חוץ למחנה היכא דנשרפו אם נהנה מהן:

עד שיותך הבשר. כלומר שיהיה נשרף ונעשה פחמים. אבל לאחר שניתך, שוב אין בו מעילה, שאין לך דבר שנעשית מצותו ומועלים בו:
