Rashi on Leviticus 1:11/רש"י על ויקרא א׳:י״א
אעל ירך המזבח. עַל צַד הַמִּזְבֵּחַ:
1על ירך המזבח means ON THE SIDE OF THE ALTAR (cf. Rashi on Exodus 40:22).
בצפנה לפני ה'. וְאֵין צָפוֹן בְּבָמָה (שם):
2'צפנה לפני ה NORTHWARD BEFORE THE LORD — but the law of slaughtering northward is not necessarily applicable in the case of a “Bamah” (i. e. an animal offered on a “Bamah” as an עולה need not be slaughtered at its north side, for it states here: northward before the Lord, the last words being used only of the Tabernacle and the Temple; cf. Zevachim 119b and Rashi on 'לפני ה וסמך, v. 3).
