Learn Gemara 30b “Amar Rava” (11 lines from top) until the 2 dots
Question; Why did Rav Yishmael B’Reb Yose make this item hefker? Learn 1st line of Tosfos “Afkera”
Question on Tosfos; Why couldn’t Rav Yishmael B’Reb Yose just give everyone permission to use it without making it hefker?
Learn Rosh Siman 21 “Vhachachom .. (in middle of the Siman) says if a Zaken wants to go “lifnim mshuras hadin” he should pay the person for the aveida since he has no right to degrade the honor of torah. Question on the Rosh;
Why is doing the mitzva itself the greatest honor for Torah? (Biur Halacha Siman 250 Hilchos Shabbos “ki”)
Point to ponder; Is the exemption of a Zaken to return an aveida that is beneath his dignity A) an exemption because of human dignity. Or B) an exclusion in the obligation of hashevas aveida? Bring proofs
