Bekhorot 40: three things to remember

  1. Rabbi Akiva permits eating a firstborn if kneading failed to lower a testicle later found inside the loins.
  2. An internal bone fracture is considered an exposed blemish because the animal's limp visibly reveals the injury during walking.
  3. Extra or missing limbs are blemishes on forelegs, but on hind legs they render the animal a dying tereifah.
