A braita is presented that derives from the verse "And the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured" the principle that if one performs just a single application of blood for each offering brought on the outer altar, they have fulfilled their obligation—supporting the halakha stated in the Mishnah. However, this verse is also used for various other interpretations and halakhot. This raises a question: how does the author of the braita derive this law from the verse if it is already employed for other teachings?

Those who interpret the verse differently derive this law by another method: they learn the rule from the sin offering (in accordance with Beit Hillel) and extend it from there to other offerings.

How do Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel each derive their respective views regarding the sin offering from the biblical verses?
