Musar su Levitico 22:21
וְאִ֗ישׁ כִּֽי־יַקְרִ֤יב זֶֽבַח־שְׁלָמִים֙ לַיהוָ֔ה לְפַלֵּא־נֶ֙דֶר֙ א֣וֹ לִנְדָבָ֔ה בַּבָּקָ֖ר א֣וֹ בַצֹּ֑אן תָּמִ֤ים יִֽהְיֶה֙ לְרָצ֔וֹן כָּל־מ֖וּם לֹ֥א יִהְיֶה־בּֽוֹ׃
E chiunque porta un sacrificio di offerte di pace all'Eterno in adempimento di un voto chiaramente pronunciato, o per un'offerta di libero arbitrio, del gregge o del gregge, sarà perfetto per essere accettato; non ci deve essere alcun difetto in esso.
Shenei Luchot HaBerit
אותו ואת בנו לא תשחטו ביום אחד . The Zohar (Sullam edition page 24) poses the question that if this legislation of not slaughtering the young animal on the same day as the mother animal (22,28) is to save the mother animal the pain of watching its young killed, this could be avoided simply by keeping them apart. The true reason, however, is connected to the Jewish peoples's sense of empathy. To the extent that a person displays consideration for the feeling of others he in turn may find that such considerations of his own feelings will be a factor when he will be judged. The reverse is also true.

Shaarei Teshuvah
“There must be no blemish in it” (Leviticus 22:21). We were warned with this not to introduce a blemish into a firstborn - even in our times.
