לֹא־תִזְבַּח֩ לַיהֹוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ שׁ֣וֹר וָשֶׂ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִהְיֶ֥ה בוֹ֙ מ֔וּם כֹּ֖ל דָּבָ֣ר רָ֑ע כִּ֧י תוֹעֲבַ֛ת יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ הֽוּא׃
You shall not sacrifice to the Eternal your God an ox or a sheep that has any defect of a serious kind, for that is abhorrent to the Eternal your God.
Torah Temimah points to Sifrei Devarim (same as previous unit).
תניא, ר׳ יהושע אומר, כי תועבת ה׳ אלהיך הוא, הוא תועבה ואין הולד תועבה.
English: It was taught: Rabbi Yehoshua says, “For it is an abomination to the Eternal your God” — it [the parent animal] is an abomination, but its offspring is not an abomination.
The singular “hu” is taken to limit the disqualification to the animal itself; its offspring remain eligible for the altar (consistent with the Mishnah in Temurah).
Derash on the verse (Sifrei) — not a formal named middah of the 13. The pronoun “hu” is read as excluding the offspring from the status of to’evah.
Although certain animals are themselves forbidden as offerings, their offspring are permitted.
