(a)We have just explained the Machlokes between the two Beraisos (whether 'Nechsei Milug Yotz'in le'Ishah ve'Lo le'Ish', or 'Lo le'Ishah ve'Lo le'Ish') in one of four ways. It is based on 1. ... the principle of Takanas Usha; 2. ... the fact that one was learned before the Takanah, and the other, after it; 3. ... Rava's principle (whether 'Hekdesh, Chametz ve'Shichrur Mafki'in Miydei Shibud' or not); 4. whether Takanas Usha was made to override Rava's principle or not. All explanations however, assume that 'Kinyan Peiros La'av ke'Kinyan ha'Guf'. What is the fifth way of reconciling the two Beraisos?

All explanations however, assumed that 'Kinyan Peiros Lav k'Kinyan ha'Guf'. All explanations however, assume that Kinyan Peiros Lav k'Kinyan ha'Guf. The fifth way of reconciling the two Beraisos is by establishing that the Tana of the second Beraisa holds 'Kinyan Peiros k'Kinyan ha'Guf'.

(a)Rebbi Meir in a Beraisa rules that if Reuven sells Shimon his Eved on condition that he alone (Reuven) may continue to use him for the first thirty days, the Din of "Yom O Yomayim" applies to Reuven but not to the Shimon. What are the ramifications of Rebbi Meir's ruling?

(b)What is his reason?

(c)What does Rebbi Yehudah say?

(d)Rebbi Yossi holds that the Din of "Yom O Yomayim" pertains to both of them. Why is that?

2)

(a)Rebbi Meir in a Beraisa rules that if Reuven sells Shimon his Eved on condition that he alone (Reuven) may continue to use him for the first thirty days, the Din of "Yom O Yomayim" applies to Reuven but not to Shimon. The ramifications of Rebbi Meir's ruling are that if Reuven wounds the Eved and he dies after twenty-four hours, he is Patur, whereas if Shimon does so, he is Chayav Misah.

(b)His ruling is based on the principle 'Kinyan Peiros k'Kinyan ha'Guf Dami'.

(c)According to Rebbi Yehudah however the Din of "Yom O Yomayim" applies to Shimon but not to Reuven (because he holds 'Kinyan Peiros Lav k'Kinyan ha'Guf Dami').

(d)Rebbi Yossi holds that the Din of "Yom O Yomayim" pertains to both of them because he is uncertain whether 'Kinyan Peiros k'Kinyan ha'Guf Dami' or not. Consequently, he applies the principle 'Safek Nefashos Lehakel', and neither will receive the death-sentence.

3)

(a)The fourth Tana who argues over this point is Rebbi Elazar. What does he say?

(b)What is ...

1. ... the logical reason behind Rebbi Elazar's ruling?

2. ... the Pasuk on which Rava bases this ruling?

3)

(a)The fourth Tana who argues over this point is Rebbi Elazar (see Rashash), who holds that neither Reuven nor Shimon is subject to the Din of "Yom O Yomayim".

(b)The ...

1. ... logical reason behind Rebbi Elazar's ruling is because neither is the real owner; the woman because the Eved is not under her jurisdiction, and the man, because he does not belong to him.

2. ... the Pasuk on which Rava bases this ruling is that of "Ki Kaspo Hu".

4)

(a)Ameimar establishes the Beraisa that discusses a man and a woman who both sold an Eved Milug, like Rebbi Elazar. What does the Tana say about it?

(b)What if both signed the document of sale jointly?

(c)What will be the Din if two partners sell an Eved that they owned jointly?

(d)Why the difference?

(e)What did Rav Mordechai tell Rav Ashi quoting Rava in connection with the Beraisa which rules that a Chatzi Eved and Chatzi ben Chorin, as well as an Eved belonging to two partners, does not go out with Shen ve'Ayin?

4)

(a)Ameimar establishes the Beraisa that discusses a man and a woman who both sold an Eved Milug, like Rebbi Elazar. The Tana rules that if a man and a woman both sell an Eved Milug the sale is invalid ...

(b)... even if both signed the document of sale jointly.

(c)If two partners sell an Eved that they own jointly the sale will be valid.

(d)The reason for the difference is because in this latter case, each has full rights in the entire Eved which entitles him to half the Eved, whereas in the former case, neither has full rights in the Eved Milug, since one owns the Peiros, and the other, the Guf.

(e)In connection with the Beraisa which rules that a Chatzi Eved and Chatzi ben Chorin as well as an Eved belonging to two partners (see Tosfos DH 'Ish'), does not go out with Shen ve'Ayin, Rav Mordechai told Rav Ashi quoting Rava that the author of that Beraisa too, is Rebbi Elazar.

5)

(a)According to the Tana Kama of our Mishnah, if Reuven blew a trumpet in Shimon's ear, he is fined a Sela (for Boshes). What else might 'ha'Tokei'a la'Chaveiro' mean?

(b)What does Rebbi Yehudah quoting Rebbi Yossi ha'Gelili say?

(c)Someone who slaps his friend's face is obligated to pay two hundred Zuz. How much must he pay if he ...

1. ... slapped him with the back of his hand?

2. ... pulled (or nicked) his ear, spat on him, removed his cloak, or uncovered a woman's hair in the street?

(d)According to the Tana Kama, this all depends on the status of the person who has been shamed (this will be explained later in the Sugya). What does Rebbi Akiva say?

5)

(a)According to the Tana Kama of our Mishnah, if Reuven blew a trumpet in Shimon's ear, he is obligated to is fined a Sela (for Boshes). 'ha'Tokei'a la'Chaveiro' might also mean someone who punched him.

(b)Rebbi Yehudah quoting Rebbi Yosi Ha'Glili, rules that he pays (not a Sela, but) a Manah.

(c)Someone who slapped his friend's face is obligated to pay two hundred Zuz. If he ...

1. ... slapped him with the back of his hand, he must pay four hundred Zuz, and the same will apply if he ...

2. ... pulled (or nicked) his ear, spat on him, removed his cloak, or uncovered a woman's hair in the street.

(d)According to the Tana Kama, this all depends on the status of the person who has been shamed (this will be explained later in the Sugya). Rebbi Akiva says that we consider even a poor person as if he was a rich man who had fallen on hard times (see 86a), because he too, is a descendent of Avraham. Yitzchak and Ya'akov.

90b----------------------------------------90b

6)

(a)The Tana tells the story of Rebbi Akiva, who fined a certain man four hundred Zuz for uncovering a woman's hair in the street. Why did the culprit ask for time to pay?

(b)How did he prove his point?

(c)What was Rebbi Akiva's response? Did he accept his claim?

(d)Which second similar ruling did Rebbi Akiva issue?

6)

(a)The Tana tells the story of Rebbi Akiva, who fined a certain man four hundred Zuz for uncovering a woman's hair in the street. The culprit asked for time to pay in order to prove that the woman did not hesitate to uncover her own hair in public.

(b)He proved this by breaking a barrel of oil whilst she was standing at the entrance of her Chatzer, and appointing two witnesses, who saw how she removed her head-covering in order to absorb some of the spilling oil.

(c)Rebbi Akiva however was not impressed. He explained that a person who wounds oneself is Patur (even though it is forbidden to do so), but this does not absolve others from having to pay, should they would him.

(d)Similarly, he added, a person who cuts down his fruit-trees is Patur (even though it is forbidden to do so), yet if others do so, they are Chayav to pay.

7)

(a)We ask whether the Sela and the Manah in our Mishnah refer to the Tzuri system or to that of Medinah. What is the difference between the two systems?

(b)We resolve the She'eilah from a Beraisa. What did Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah say when a man who blew a trumpet in someone's ear was brought before him?

(c)On what grounds do we query the suggestion that what he meant was that he was ruling because he saw the episode and that Rebbi Yossi ha'Gelili stated the figure as a Manah Tzuri?

(d)In a Beraisa, Rebbi Tarfon rules that if the Sanhedrin saw Reuven murder Shimon, some of the Dayanim adopt the role of witnesses and others, of Dayanim. What does Rebbi Akiva say?

7)

(a)We ask whether the Sela and the Manah in our Mishnah refer to the Tzuri system or to that of the Medinah which is one eighth of the former.

(b)We resolve the She'eilah from a Beraisa, where, when a man who blew a trumpet in someone's ear was brought before him, Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah said 'There is I, and there is Rebbi Yossi ha'Glili, who fixed the price as a Manah Tzuri' (though this clashes with the Sugya in the fourth Perek see Tosfos Yom-Tov).

(c)We query the suggestion that what he meant was that he was ruling because he saw the episode and that Rebbi Yosi ha'Glili stated the figure as a Manah Tzuri because then Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah would hold 'Ed Na'aseh Dayan' (a witness who testifies can then act as a Dayan too), which seems to clash with both opinions in the Beraisa that we are about to discuss.

(d)In a Beraisa, Rebbi Tarfon rules that if the Sanhedrin saw Reuven murder Shimon, some of the Dayanim adopt the role of witnesses and others of Dayanim. Rebbi Akiva says that since they are all potential witnesses (seeing as they witnessed the event), they can no longer act as Dayanim.

8)

(a)Both Tana'im agree that 'Ein Eid Na'aseh Dayan'. How do we initially reconcile this with the current suggestion that what Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah meant was that he was ruling because he had seen the episode?

(b)Like whom does Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah then hold?

(c)How do we reinterpret Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah's statement assuming that the Sanhedrin witnessed the murder by day?

8)

(a)Both Tana'im agree that 'Ein Ed Na'aseh Dayan'. We initially reconcile this with the current suggestion that what Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah meant was that he was ruling because he had seen the episode by establishing the case of the Beraisa where the event took place at night, when Beis-Din cannot convene, and which therefore requires fresh testimony in the daytime; whereas Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah, who had witnessed the episode by day, was able to rule by virtue of what he himself saw ('she'Lo Tehei Shemi'ah Gedolah me'Re'iyah' [because seeing cannot be worse than hearing]).

(b)Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah then holds like Rebbi Tarfon (see Tosfos DH 'K'gon).

(c)Assuming that the Sanhedrin witnessed the murder by day, we reinterpret Rebbi Yehudah Nesi'ah's statement to mean that he concurs with Rebbi Yossi Hagelili (but not that he saw the episode).

9)

(a)What does Shimon ha'Teimani learn from the Pasuk "ve'Hikah Ish es Re'eihu be'Even O be'Egrof"?

(b)Rebbi Akiva disagree with Rebbi Shimon ha'Teimani. What does he hold?

(c)On what grounds does he argue with him?

9)

(a)Shimon ha'Teimani learns from the Pasuk "ve'Hikah Ish Es Re'eihu be'Even O be'Egrof" that just as a fist ("Egrof") is available for both the Sanhedrin and the witnesses to see, so too, must the murder weapon be available for the Sanhedrin to see (in order to assess whether it was fit to kill or not). Consequently, if it got lost, the murdered cannot be sentenced.

(b)Rebbi Akiva disagrees with Rebbi Shimon ha'Teimani. According to him it will suffice if the weapon is seen by the witnesses.

(c)He argues on him on the grounds that a. the murdered did not strike the victim in the presence of the Beis-Din; b. they did not see where the murderer struck the victim, and c. they did not see the rooftop from which he pushed him off (and certainly not if the building collapsed), yet they believe the witnesses in all of these points. In that case, let them also believe the witnesses with regard to the murder weapon.

10)

(a)What can we infer from Rebbi Akiva's words 've'Chi bi'Fenei Beis-Din Hikahu'?

(b)How do we reconcile this with what he said earlier (that 'Ein Eid Na'aseh Dayan')?

10)

(a)We can infer from Rebbi Akiva's words 've'Chi bi'Fenei Beis-Din Hikahu' that if the murderer would have committed the murder in front of Beis-Din, then they would have been able to rule on the basis of what they saw.

(b)We reconcile this with what he said earlier (that 'Ein Ed Na'aseh Dayan') by establishing the latter statement as being, not his own opinion, but merely in answer to Rebbi Shimon ha'Teimani's statement.

11)

(a)The Beraisa states with regard to a Shor Tam that gored Reuven to death and wounded Shimon, that Beis-Din will sentence the ox to death, but will not even open the case for damages. Why not?

(b)What does the Tana say in the equivalent case by a Mu'ad?

(c)What will be the Din if they inadvertently opened the case of Misah and sentenced the Mu'ad to death?

11)

(a)The Beraisa says that if a Shor Tam gored Reuven to death and wounded Shimon, Beis-Din will sentence the ox to death, but will not open the case for damages because, seeing as a Shor Tam only pays from the body of the ox, and in this case, the ox is destined to be stoned (in which case it will be Asur be'Hana'ah), there is no point in doing so.

(b)In the equivalent case by a Mu'ad the Tana says that Beis-Din first deal with the case regarding damages, and then sentence the ox to death (because there, the owner will be able to pay for the damages from his pocket).

(c)In the event that they inadvertently dealt with the case of Misah and sentenced the Mu'ad to death, the Beraisa concludes they will not open the case of damages at all.
