Yoma 3B

״עשה לך״⁠ — משלך, אלא למאן דאמר משל צבור, מאי איכא למימר?

and similarly, when the Torah states: Make you, it means from your own property. However, according to the one who said that when the Torah states both phrases it means from communal property, what is there to say to distinguish between Yom Kippur and the other days?

דתניא: ״קח לך״⁠ — משלך, ו״עשה לך״⁠ — משלך, ״ויקחו אליך״⁠ — משל צבור, דברי רבי יאשיה. רבי יונתן אומר: בין ״קח לך״, בין ״ויקחו אליך״⁠ — משל צבור, ומה תלמוד לומר ״קח לך״⁠ — כביכול משלך אני רוצה יותר משלהם.

As it was taught in a baraita that when the Torah states: Take you, it means from your own property, and when it states: Make you, it means from your own property; however, when the Torah states: And they will bring to you, it means from community property. This is the statement of R' Yoshiya. R' Yonatan says that both when the Torah states: Take you, and when the Torah states: And they will bring to you, it means from community property. And for what purpose, then, does the verse state: Take you, which seems to mean from your own property? It should be understood, as it were, that God said to Moses: I desire that it come from your property more than I desire it from theirs. Therefore, the taking was attributed to Moses even though it was actually from community property.

אבא חנן אמר משום רבי אלעזר, כתוב אחד אומר: ״ועשית לך ארון עץ״, וכתוב אחד אומר: ״ועשו ארון עצי שטים״, הא כיצד? כאן בזמן שישראל עושין רצונו של מקום, כאן בזמן שאין עושין רצונו של מקום!

Abba Ḥanan said in the name of R' Elazar that one verse says: “And make you an ark of wood” (Deuteronomy 10:1), indicating that it should be from your own property; and one verse says on the same subject: “And they should make an ark of acacia wood” (Exodus 25:10), meaning from the Jewish people. How can this contradiction be resolved? Here, the verse is referring to a time when the Jewish people perform the will of God and they are credited with building the Ark of the Covenant. There, it is referring to a time when the Jewish people do not perform the will of God, and construction of the Ark is attributed to Moses alone. According to that opinion, there is no difference between the offerings of Yom Kippur and other offerings.
