114 - SHEARING A DEDICATED BEAST
Deuteronomy 15:19 -- “All the firstborn males that come from your herd and your flock you shall sanctify to the LORD your God; you shall do no work with the firstborn of your herd, nor shear the firstborn of your flock.”
“In order that we may respect the sacrifices and all that is devoted to the name of God… animals reserved for holy purposes must not be employed in work; nor is the shearing of such animals permitted.”*
* Moreh Nebuchim III, 46
