...; he29 [could have] claimed [his compensation from the seller's lands].30 R. Ashi said: [The omission of the clause] pledging property [is] not [regarded as] the scribe's error; and the meaning of30 'with the omission [of the clause] pledging property' is that no such clause is entered in the deed.31 A certain woman once gave to a man money [wherewith] to buy for her [a plot of] land.

...: According as the cohabitator3 of the woman will lay upon him.4 But why should not Rabbah refer the ruling5 to the case where the payment of the compensation had been collected in money, and R. Nahman to the case where it had been collected out of land? For did Rabbah not say6 that where an outstanding debt had been collected7 out of land, the first-born son would take in it [a...
... double portion],8 but where it had been collected in money the first-born son would not [take in it a double portion]?9 Or again did R. Nahman not say10 that [on the contrary] where the debt had been collected in money the first-born would take [in it a double portion],11 but where it has been collected out of land, the first-born son would not [take in it a double portion]?12...
... the creditor, and the first-born takes a double portion only 'of all that' his father 'hath' at the time of death. A husband is in a similar position, as he too has the right to inherit only chooses in possession at the lifetime of his wife. V. p. 243, n. 10. For the money collected is considered in the eye of the law as the money which was lent to the father of the debtor. V. p. 243, n. 13. V. p...
... redemption money and [the object which is redeemed] becomes non-holy,14 similarly the Sabbatical year should affect its money and [the produce which had been sold] become non-holy! But there is a text to state, It shall be [holy],15 i.e., it shall remain in that state.16 How is it, then? If he bought meat with fruits grown in the seventh year, both must be 'removed' during the Sabbatical...

Lit., 'two texts which come as one,' i.e., a law is given twice...
... the object dedicated to the Sanctuary is redeemed for a sum of money. Obtained by illegally selling produce grown in that year. And may be put to secular use. Not 'it is holy'.

... has already explained that we deal here with [the remains of] what has been gathered on the threshing floor, so that [the owner] is aware of his loss. Come and hear: SCATTERED MONEY, [etc.] BELONG TO THE FINDER. Why? [Is it not a case where the loser] did not know that he lost it? — There also it is even as R. Isaac said: A man usually feels for his purse at frequent intervals.12 So here...
...; THEY BELONG TO THE FINDER. Why? [Is it not a case where the loser] did not know that he lost them? — There also [he becomes aware of his loss] because the articles are valuable, and he frequently feels for them, even as R. Isaac said. Come and hear: If one finds money in a Synagogue or in a house of study, or in any other place where many people congregate, it belongs to him, because the owner...

So that he is bound to miss the money very shortly after he has lost it. Which belong to the poor. V. Lev. XIX, 9. Pe'ah VIII, 1.

... of an oath. As stated supra 3a, no oath is required by Biblical law unless part of one's claim is admitted. This admission must be for at least a perutah or its equivalent. The smallest sum of money or its equivalent whereby a woman can be betrothed is a perutah. Denying the theft. Lit., 'must carry it after him.' If he repents, he does not obtain forgiveness unless he returns it to him personally...
... by witnesses, yet payment is refused, a court session orders measures of compulsion against the recalcitrant debtor. The smallest sum to be involved for this step to be taken is a perutah. For the same principle operates in both. HE WHO FINDS AN ARTICLE WORTH A PERUTAH IS BOUND TO PROCLAIM IT. The principles here too are identical, viz., that perutah is 'money', to the return of which the owner has...
... trees were planted, their fruit was forbidden during the first three years. The produce of the fourth was permitted, but on the same terms as the second tithe, viz., it either had to be taken to Jerusalem for consumption or redeemed without Jerusalem and the money expended there; v. Lev. XIX, 24ff. On 'his own' v. supra, p. 272 n. 9. Here too 'his' is emphatic. Lev. V, 16. By ruling that one who eats...
... (not of the second tithe) for them, which produce in turn becomes sanctified. Dem. II, 6. The translation follows Tosaf. R. Meir permits the produce to be redeemed, though that itself was formerly employed for redeeming the money; whilst the Sages maintain that in these circumstances the produce itself must be taken to Jerusalem. Hence R. Meir is more lenient here in respect to demai than the Sages...
..., which contradicts Samuel's assertion above that in this R. Meir is particularly stringent (more so than the Rabbis). According to Tosaf., this is adduced to shew further that R. Meir is more lenient than the Sages. In Rashi's view, however, this is part of the reasoning leading up to R. Shesheth's objection. And the owner wishes to spend the hullin money outside of Jerusalem. I.e., the best sela' of...
... children die! As a measure of defence. The merit of their learning protects them. To dig it personally, but merely furnish the money for it. On the whole passage v. B.B. (Sonc. ed.) p. 33. Of mud and refuse which impede the free flow of the water. If there are obstacles on the upper parts of the river, the water flow is adversely affected for the lower too.

...-emption does not apply. If these [the coins of the abutting neighbour] are bound up, and those [of the purchaser] unsealed, there is no pre-emption.13 If he [the neighbour] says, 'I will go, take trouble, and bring money;' we do not wait for him. But if he says, 'I will go and bring money;' we consider: if he is a man of substance, who can go and bring the money [without delay], we wait for him...
... rights of an ignoramus! Tosaf. holds that the passage does refer to pre-emption, but treats of two neighbours. The weight of authority supports Rashi's view; v. H.M. 175, 50. Prov. XXVII, 10. V. p. 403, n. 4. If the neighbour offers the former and the purchaser the latter, or vice versa, the vendor can insist upon a particular preference. If a neighbour and a stranger send money for the field, the...
...! What is the reason? Let them rather be regarded as a possession that was acquired by one in his possession [who is permitted to eat terumah]. for it was taught: Whence is it deduced that the wife whom a priest married or the slaves which he purchased may eat terumah.? It is said, But if a priest buy any soul the purchase of his money, he may eat of it.9 And whence is it deduced that if a...
... woman10 purchased slaves11 or if a priest's slaves purchased12 other slaves, these may eat terumah? It is said, But if a priest buy any soul, the purchase of his money, he may eat of it;9 a possession which his possession has acquired may eat!13 — Whosoever may himself eat may confer the right of eating upon others but whosoever may not himself eat may not confer the...
... condition should he divorce her or die. Lev. XXII, 11. The daughter of an Israelite, who married a priest. Out of her melog property the principal of which is hers. With a sum of money that was given to them as their absolute property. on the condition that their master was to have no claim whatsoever upon it. The expression, 'the purchase of his money is superfluous' and the text is, therefore, expounded...
... thus: If the purchase of his money, i.e., a priest's wife or slave (who is the priest's acquisition) buy any soul, he (i.e., the one purchased) 'may eat of it'. Why then are not melog slaves, being an acquisition of the priest's wife, permitted to eat terumah? The priest's wife in this case is not herself permitted to eat terumah, since her union with this priest is a forbidden one. V. Lev. XXI, 7...

Babylonian Talmud: Baba Bathra 42 Previous Folio / Baba Bathra Contents / Tractate List / Navigate Site Babylonian Talmud: Tractate Baba Bathra Folio 42a have only themselves to blame.1 But did Rab indeed give this ruling? Have we not learnt [in a Mishnah]: If a man lends money to another on a bond, he may recover his debt even from property on which there is a lien2...
... recovered either from the heirs [of the debtor] or from those who have [subsequently] purchased [from him].4 — Are you arguing from a loan to a sale? When a man borrows money, he does so as secretly as possible, in order that his property may not depreciate.5 If he sells land, however, he does so as publicly as possible, in order that people may know about it.6 Our Rabbis taught: If the...
.... Because anyone who lent the borrower money or bought from him subsequently ought to have known that there was already a prior claim on him. I.e., in the presence of witnesses but without a bond. Which is equivalent to saying that it cannot be recovered from property on which there is a lien. As it will if people know that he is pressed for money. And so he may have more offers. Hence there is no...
...; Said Abaye: The possibility of eating 'flesh of nebelah:3 We are not to presume that while the Israelite turned his face, the heathen dropped some nebelah into his pot; as a parallel case, here too the Sages should not mind the possibility of receiving money of an idolater.4 Raba said, what the Sages did not mind there is the cooking by a heathen; the parallel being that here too, the...
..., but in the case of the coins where this could not be done, the prohibition does not apply. If, on the other hand, we were given the case of the coins only [we might say that the prohibition holds good] because only a loss of money is incurred, but in the case of the thorn, where pain is caused, the prohibition is not to be applied. Were we given both these instances, [we might still say that the...
... bazaar merely because of the festival held at Gaza in proximity to it. What kind of prohibition was disregarded in the case of Tyre, which might offer an analogy to our case? [H], flesh of any animal, even a clean one, which dies of itself, or which is not slaughtered in accordance with ritual law and is forbidden to a Jew. We are not to assume that the money paid by the heathen outside the city for...
... as a parallel to transacting business with an idolater, on his festival, when he is dealing with his own money and not with that appertaining to idolatry — so that only a Rabbinic enactment is involved, in which case the proximity of the Bazaar of Gaza to the town might be overlooked. According to Rabbah b. 'Ulla the case of Tyre does not offer a parallel for disregarding even a Rabbinic...
... employer. If, therefore, the foodstuff was prohibited, the employer exchanged his money for what was illegal. In the case of R. Jannai's School, however, the poor were not accustomed to give credit, so that we have not here an instance of unlawful exchange. Viz., that the decision rests on whether he gives him credit. V. Glos. As soon as the loan is made, the lender is technically the owner of what had...
... case he must be concerned about unlawful foodstuffs. I.e., I will set off what you have had against the money which I have already given the shopkeeper. In that case the employer became the owner of the foodstuffs and must be concerned about their legality, whether he took them on credit or not. 'Go out' implies that he does not accompany them and therefore he could not hand the food to them. May he...
