A BIT MORE
1. Herod decided to test Bava ben Buta, whom he had blinded, by disguising his voice and asking Bava ben Buta to curse the king. He wanted to see if Bava ben Buta would curse him or say anything negative about him.
2. He kept explaining that one may not curse a king or a rich man even if he is an evildoer.
3. Herod was advised by Bava ben Buta that in order to atone for the great sin of killing the sages, he should renovate the Beis ha'Mikdash.
4. The case is where a person owns fields surrounding another person's field, and he erects three walls alongside his friend's field on three sides. Since his friend's field is still open on one side, his friend did not receive any benefit from the surrounding walls and therefore does not have to share in the cost.
5. Tana Kama: He must pay only for half the costs of the cheapest walls that would provide this benefit. Rebbi Yosi: He must pay for half of the actual cost of these walls.
