Chapter 2, Mishna 1

How does the front plate of the High Priest (tzitz) atone for offerings that became impure?
Does the tzitz bring acceptance for all impure offerings?
And does it atone even when the individual bringing the offering was unaware or did not consent?
With regard to a priest who became impure through tumah of the depths (tumah tehom), meaning an impurity hidden from all knowledge, what is the law?
Does the tzitz of the High Priest bring atonement for him as well, or only for impurity that was known?
And if he was not permitted to perform the service due to such impurity, is the offering still accepted?
What is the law concerning a nazir who defiled his consecrated head, meaning he became impure from contact with a corpse?
Since this impurity came against his will, is he nevertheless prevented from bringing his offerings until his purification is complete?
What is the meaning of the verse “to stand to minister” (la’amod leshareit)?
Is an offering valid if a priest’s feet was on a stone and the other on the floor?
What if his foot is on a wobbly tile?
What is the law concerning a priest who applies the blood of an offering not with his right hand or right finger, but with his left?
