..., it may be said [that] there is really no [need] to reverse [the reported opinions],39 but the dispute here40 is on [the question of] proving [all one's pleas];41 such as [the case] of R. Isaac b. Joseph [who] claimed [a sum of] money from R. Abba. [When] he came before R. Isaac Nappaha. [R. Abba] pleaded. 'I repaid to you in the presence of X and Y'. 'Let X and Y come', said R...
... contracts as they are synonyms. Regulating technical terms in contracts of sale. Who keep the two terms distinct. Tractate List / Glossary / / Bible Reference Baba Kamma 27b It is therefore made known to us that we do not follow the majority1 in [disputes on] matters of money.2 AND ANOTHER ONE COMES AND STUMBLES OVER IT AND BREAKS IT, HE IS EXEMPT. Why exempt? Has not one to keep one's eyes open...
... he is not liable [to pay for Tamun in the case of Fire].20 They also differed in the case where he kindled a fire in the premises of his neighbour, R. Judah holding that he should pay for everything that was there, including even purses [of money], whereas the Rabbis held that it was only for utensils which were usually put away in the stacks, stich as e.g. threshing sledges and cattle...
...: My father's family belonged to the property owners in Upper Galilee. Why then were they ruined? Because they used to pasture their flocks in forests, and to try money cases without a colleague.6 The forests were very near to their estates, but there was also a little field near by [belonging to others], and the cattle were led by way of this. Our Rabbis taught: If a shepherd7 desires to...
... ADORNMENT FOR APHRODITE; BUT HE SAYS, APHRODITE WAS MADE AS AN ADORNMENT FOR THE BATH. ANOTHER REASON IS, IF YOU WERE GIVEN A LARGE SUM OF MONEY, YOU WOULD NOT ENTER THE PRESENCE OF A STATUE REVERENCED BY YOU WHILE YOU WERE NUDE OR HAD EXPERIENCED SEMINAL EMISSION, NOR WOULD YOU URINATE BEFORE IT. BUT THIS [STATUE OF APHRODITE] STANDS BY A SEWER AND ALL PEOPLE URINATE BEFORE IT. [IN THE TORAH] IT IS ONLY...
... be the same again. The old values - the old life, the competition, the market the money, the power, the prestige, the politics - all seem meaningless. Once you have tasted a little of death, then you know that all this is futile; it has no intrinsic value. One starts seeking for meaning for the first time. So go immediately, mm? For a few days he will be very vulnerable. If you catch hold of him...

Unless you are capable of remaining alone, a relationship always disturbs. It is almost like a banker. If you have money, the banker will give it to you. If you don't have it, they...

The friend and disciple who was looking after him said, 'There is nothing in the house, and I have no money sol couldn't purchase anything.' Byazid said nothing. He simply sat there, prayed to...
... one cannot understand how one could have believed in money so much, in power politics so much, in name and fame so much. How could one have believed in the body so much knowing that death is happening every day, all around? How one went on living as if one was not going to die at all! But right now when you are metaphysically asleep all these things seem to be very real. Somebody insults you and it...
