An ox or a sheep, that hath the ear and the tail cut off, thou mayst offer voluntarily: but a vow may not be paid with them.
וְשׁ֥וֹר וָשֶׂ֖ה שָׂר֣וּעַ וְקָל֑וּט נְדָבָה֙ תַּעֲשֶׂ֣ה אֹת֔וֹ וּלְנֵ֖דֶר לֹ֥א יֵרָצֶֽה׃
One Church Father comments on this verse
The heifer or sheep shall have its ear severed. A calf or sheep with a severed ear symbolizes profound disobedience. Taillessness serves as a metaphor for an individual who is perpetually inclined to dispute and is familiar with deception.
