Source Citation

Torah Temimah: “ועשה פסח לה׳” — the second offering is called Pesach and carries the same essential name and framework.

Core Text of Chazal

Core Text
וְעָ֥שָׂה פֶ֖סַח לַיהֹוָֽה׃ — אַף שֵׁנִי שְׁמוֹ פֶּסַח.

English: “And he shall offer a Pesach to Hashem” — even the second is called Pesach.

Type of Learning

Naming continuity — the second opportunity is not a different species of offering.

What Is Learned

The delayed offering retains the identity of Pesach itself.
