Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Monday Night Gemara Shiur Bava Metzia 30B Amar Rava Kol Shebishelo Machzir (07/09/2012)

Shiur #3 Exemption to return an Avieda if its beneath ones dignity (Mon night)

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
Continue learning Gemara until the Mishna

Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Wednesday Night Gemara Shiur Bava Metzia 27B Amar Rava (04/25/2012).

Learn Gemara 27b from “Amar Rava” (middle of the wide lines) until 28a “Ella Amar Rava”. Basic Questions 1) A. Why did the gemara initially think that the interest of the finder has any relevance? B. After the Gemara’s response that it is in the best interest of the owner of the item, does that imply that the interest of the finder is no longer relevant? Ritva “Amar Rava” 2) How could the Gemara say the Takana Drabanan applies by Siman Muvhak when the Gemara 18b said clearly that Siman Muvhak is an acceptable Siman from the Torah? Tosfos “Vana” 3) Why would the loser of an item agree to have it returned based on Simanim yet would not want this to be so by a lost Shtar (document)? Ritva “Nicha”

Learn 1) Gemara 24b “(2 dots) Rav Chanina… until Mishna  2) Why by the case of finding slaughtered chickens, where the ruling was that the finder was permitted to keep and eat, did the Gemara not use this as a proof that we rule like R’ Shiman ben Elazar even by majority Jews? What do we conclude in Halacha, do we Pasken like Raban Shimon ben Elazar by majority A) gentiles, B) Jews? See Nimukei Yosef, and Rosh end of siman 7.  3) What do we conclude according to Halacha regarding scenerio’s where there was Yiush yet the loser comes and gives a Siman. Is one obligated to return it based on Lifnim Mishuras Hadin?  (See Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat Siman 259,5
