זבח רשעים תועבה And שעיר משתלח

This blog mentioned previously the question of the Gemorah in Shavuot (12b) that why would one need to be atoned for a ביטול עשה with the שעיר משתלח.  If he did teshuva, there is no need for the שעיר for there is immediate forgiveness, and if he didn't do teshuva, then its a זבח רשעים תועבה?  This blog discussed in the past if the שעיר לעזעזל has the status of a korban or not.  This Gemorah seems explicit that it does have the status of a korban? Indeed, the Pnei Yehoshua points out that the language of Rashi on the Gemorah, הא כתיב זבח רשעים תועבה - והיכי מכפר עליה קרבן יוה"כ: is clear that the שעיר has the status of a korban.  However, the Pnei Yehousha himself disagrees with this assertion and understands that the Gemorah is asking from a קל וחומר.  If for a inadvertent sin can't be atoned by a korban, for sure a sin committed wantonly can't be atoned for without teshuva.

We see in this Gemorah (according to Pnei Yehoshua anג those that hold the שעיר isn't a korban,) that the din of זבח רשעים תועבה isn't said as a פסול in a korban.  It's not a law that  of a rasha is disqualified.  It's a law in kapparah, one who is still in the status as one who has violated the averah isn't eligible to  the kapparah of any means. That is what we explained in the past, that זבח רשעים תועבה doesn't disqualify the korban, it disqualifies the kapparah of the korban (see Birchas Avrohom.)
