Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Wednesday Night Gemara Shiur Bava Metzia 30B: Ella LiZakein.. (07/04/2012)

Learn Gemara 30B “Ela” (2nd line from top of Amud) until “Amar Rava” (11 lines from top)
Central point; Why if a Zaken hits a lost animal is he now obligated to return it? What happened to the exemption that it is not respectable for him?
What’s the halacha if a Zaken kicks an inanimate object?
Rashi “Hikisha”, Very important learn Gemara Bava Basra top of 88a & Rashbam “Diankata Nigrei Braisa”, Rosh Bava Metzia Siman 21, Ritva “Hikisha”
Major Question on the safek of the Gemara; The Gemara entertains a thought that one would only be obligated in the field and would not have to continue in the city but that is contradictory to what we just concluded that once a Zaken starts he has to finish?
Continue learning the Gemara until the 2 dots
