Mesorat%20hashas for Keritot 6:7

הַמַּפְרִישׁ חַטָּאתוֹ, וּמֵת, לֹא יְבִיאֶנָּה בְנוֹ אַחֲרָיו. וְלֹא יְבִיאֶנָּה מֵחֵטְא עַל חֵטְא, אֲפִלּוּ עַל חֵלֶב שֶׁאָכַל אֶמֶשׁ לֹא יְבִיאֶנָּה עַל חֵלֶב שֶׁאָכַל הַיּוֹם, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא ד), קָרְבָּנוֹ עַל חַטָּאתוֹ, שֶׁיְּהֵא קָרְבָּנוֹ לְשֵׁם חֶטְאוֹ:

[If an individual] set aside his <i>Chattat</i> and then died, his son cannot offer it after him [to atone for his own sin]. And one may not offer [an offering that was set aside to atone] for one sin for [atonement of] another sin, even if he had set aside [a <i>Chattat</i>] for forbidden fat that he had eaten yesterday, he may not offer it for forbidden fat that he has eaten today, for it states, “His offering... for his sin” (Leviticus 4:28) - his offering must be for the sake of his [specific] sin.
