Very quickly review :גמרא כב from second set of two dots until the משנה.

Questions:

According to the ריב”ן

  • What is the חילק between being reevaluated on the same day as the first evaluation or on a later date?
  • Why does the נלקה not need to endure his full share of lashes if there was an underestimation in the original evaluation ?
  • Why does the נלקה not need to endure his full share of lashes when the reevaluation is done on a later date and its clear he can endure the full amount contrary to the original evaluation which said he can only endure part of the 39?

Continue learning the משנה and גמרא including the second משנה until the bottom of the עמוד

Point to ponder:
  • When the נלקה is evaluated that he can endure 42 lashes we consider it as getting 2 sets if lashes.
  • Is this only for one action that is a violation of 2 לאוין or even for 2 individual violations of 2 לאוין ?  See ערל”נ

Questions:

  • Why does the חזן  rip the shirt of the נלקה ? See ריטב”א
  • When the מלקה adds an extra lash resulting in the death of the נלקה the  מלקה go to גלות. Why? גלות. Is only for an accident? This is negligence? (See ריבן , ריטב”א )

  • According to רבי יהודה when the נלקה can only endure 20 lashes, will he receive 2 lashes בין כתיפיו?  (The ערל”נ “דכתיב” and “אשר” discusses these two questions)
