Core Text
צֹאן וּבָקָר – וַהֲלֹא פֶּסַח אֵינוֹ בָּא אֶלָּא מִן הַכְּבָשִׂים וּמִן הָעִזִּים, אֶלָּא מְלַמֵּד שֶׁמּוֹתַר הַפֶּסַח יְהֵא לְדָבָר הַבָּא מִן הַצֹּאן וּמִן הַבָּקָר, וּמַאי נִיהוּ שְׁלָמִים.

English: "Of the flock and the herd" — But the Pesach comes only from sheep and goats; rather, this teaches that the remainder of the Pesach [when a substitute is found] becomes something that comes from flock and herd—namely shelamim.

On the daf / in context: When a designated Pesach is lost, replaced, and then found, the original animal is offered as shelamim.

Type of Learning

Derash on the verse (Pesachim) — a leftover Pesach becomes shelamim.

What Is Learned

An animal originally designated as a Pesach that is no longer needed is offered as shelamim.
