Negative commandment 118 of 365

Not to leave any portion of the festival offering, brought on the fourteenth day of Nissan, unto the third day

Maimonides

Not to leave any portion of the festival offering, brought on the fourteenth day of Nissan, unto the third day, as it is said, “….neither shall any of the flesh (which thou sacrificest the first day at even) remain all night (unto the morning)” (Deut. 16:4). Traditionally it was learnt, that this verse refers to the festival offering brought on the fourteenth of Nissan, and the phrase ‘unto the morning’ means until the morning of the second day of Passover, which is the third day from that on which it was killed.
