Okay, good evening friends. We're
continuing in
we're learning.
Actually, this gumar should be very
familiar to you because we had basically
this gumar inubis and
this exact gumar appeared at the end of
the Mishna says as follows. The Mishna
says we'll start it again.
If you answer yourself to get from your
friend, you can't get Han from your
friend. You could pay his
you could pay his debt
and you could return his.
What if normally you pay the
you pay the finder for returning?
If the guy doesn't charge you, now he's
saving you money.
You know, it's very interesting
if it's it's only because it's something
that you would normally pay for and he's
saving you money. But paying a debt we
do not view as something that you would
pay for. The fact that somebody pays off
your debt is not considered saving
money. It's only if someone returns your
object and it's something you would
normally pay for and you don't have to
pay.
So that's what uh Yehuda was asking was
asking you know why is paying a debt not
like a place where you would pay money.
Wouldn't you pay wouldn't you pay money
to you know let's say someone had credit
card debt. Say they had $1,000 of credit
card debt. Wouldn't they pay I don't
know $600 $700 $800 to get off the debt?
$100 to get off the debt. I mean, you
would think so. So, we'll have to see in
the Gmorra what the logic of this is.
So, in a place where normally play, then
the guy,
in other words, let's say you say that
I'm now to get h from you. If you return
my object and I would normally pay for
it, I will
I'm now to get h from you. So, what do I
do?
I got to pay the money to he
what does that mean in other words you
return let's see the says on that
so let's say like this I say I'm not
going to get enough from you and you
return my object so I should pay you so
I could one way out of it is I pay you
but what if you don't want to take money
then I pay hectish I I give the money to
saddaka right so in other words uh
that's the way the best way around it is
if it's something normally that people
pay for so I should pay you for I'll pay
you for it okay the garra says what's
the logic here
this the ran said we saw it yesterday is
going on paying off the shekel and
paying the debt the reason why it's mut
is because I'm not giving you anything.
I'm just removing the nuisance of the
mala.
Now, why are you allowed to pay my
shael?
Because either way, it's not like you're
mahani that you're giving me in the
carbon cuz even if I don't pay the sack,
I'll still have a on of the carbon. I
you're paying off my debt. No, it's
Ariana.
Who is this Tana who holds is
says
he this is the opinion ofan
it's the opinion ofan who says
is motor
let's see the ran
uh the run we read it yesterday says
that if if somebody supports hurts the
wife of their friend
that a husband has to pay his wife, give
his wife miso. If somebody goes and
gives her miso, it's like he put his
money on the horn of a deer. That lots
of luck ever seeing it again. So when
you pay off the debt that a husband owes
his wife that's called
that's what we did yesterday to which
the now says
it could even go according to everyone
meaning even if you argue on and you say
that if you pay a woman
then you're allowed to go collect from
the husband because you are mahanim him
in the case of our Mishna where you're
usher to get Han from your friend. So
you know why he's allowed to pay your
debt to
we're talking about we're
it was lent unconditioned not to have to
pay back. Let's say you know those are
always the best lenders. They lend the
money and they don't um demand payment.
So everyone would agree that if the
condition of the loan was here I'm
lending you the money you don't have to
pay back if somebody pays back the debt
uh that's not called being mahana the
person even if out of courtesy the
person would would pay it up but since
he's not obligated to that's not
considered being mahim by the way we had
this exact gum in
okay
we had this kamar we had the of
and now we're going to have a we had at
the end of
myan where exactly did kanan say his
teaching the we learned in a
this Mishna is found in the end of
a guy who went overseas
and he has to support his wife
while he was away someone got up and
supported his wife
says lots of luck he lost his money he
lost his money
and they say
you should swear how much you spent and
collected
said like
However,
said very good.
Okay, these are the two opinions by the
way. Take a look in the
even say that the to return to this guy
the value of the debt that he paid for
him.
by someone who answers
that is in our
talking about where he gave it on
condition not to have to pay back
when he lent him the money he stipulated
that when the money was lent the stipul
ulation was that he doesn't have the
ability to force it to be paid back.
Only if you want to.
When the person who the nether was made
against pays off the debt,
it could be that the person who is not
allowed to get would have ultimately
paid up out of embarrassment
since if he wanted he didn't have to
pay.
He's not giving anything to the person
who he's not to get from. You hear this?
So even though he would have paid,
that's not called a hana because he
didn't have to pay. He didn't have to
pay.
He didn't have to pay. Then the run has
a
I understand if you pay someone's debt.
What about the case where you pay
someone shekel?
What situation is there where what you
didn't have to pay the shekel? Everyone
has to pay the soar says
he would interpret the
in a case where you tak
if you send payment of the shekel and
it's stolen or lost.
So in that kind of case the RA says taka
you would be putter and even if it's the
common practice to pay it nevertheless
that's not called being mahana somebody
okay that's how the run interprets that
we didn't have to do that run but still
it's okay we did a run an unauthorized
run fine now the garra discusses why
the
[Music]
rav
Ravoia said it's going likean and ra
said it's going like everyone. We had
inubus. The only thing is inubus it says
it a little differently.
If you remember that inubus it says it
differently. I give you a very big hug.
Okay.
Ra did not say like
because wanted the mission to go like
everyone.
He wanted the Mishna to go even like
those who argue on Kanan. The Mishna
didn't say it's going like Kanan. So
therefore
Rava was uh is reasonable in
interpreting according to everyone. Why
didn't say like Rava? Why is Raosha
lacking the
Rava? Why? Because
Raosia would say
that according to Rabba,
what's the Mishna talking about taka? If
you pay someone's debt and you're mud,
you're not allowed to. Why? Because
you're being mahim. In what case is the
Mishna saying you're allowed to pay his
debt? in a case where it was stipulated
that it does not it's a debt that
doesn't have to be paid up. So that
means you're saying that the Mishna is
talking about where there was such a
stipulation and that's when you are
allowed to pay the debt but ordinarily
you're not allowed to pay the debt.
Well, maybe you know what? Um, Raisha
didn't want to say that that's the case
of the Mishna because if you're not
allowed to pay the debt in a situation
where it's a debt that has to be paid,
we would make a you're not to pay the
debt. Even in a case where the debt does
not have to be paid
less you come to pay the debt when the
debt has to be paid says
it's
that not to pay a debt that doesn't have
to be paid less you come to pay the debt
that doesn't have to be paid and
therefore we we prefer to say it's going
like that you're always allowed to pay
the debt because it's
so the round says
If you say that could pay the debt
in a case where it was stipulated that
it doesn't have to be paid,
it's logical to make
he might come to pay.
He might come to pay a debt where the
debt has to be paid. Therefore, if the
Mishna is the you would never be able to
pay it.
There's no case that it's permitted. So
must be that you could always pay the
debt.
Now the ran raises a very interesting
point and that point is that the way the
garra sets this up over here,
this is not like the gumar inubus. The
Gumar Suba says
that the would say you can't pay a debt
even though it was stipulated that he's
not out to pay
that he doesn't have to pay because
since he would be embarrassed not to pay
you're giving him that's the
which I'm sure you remember by the look
of your faces I could tell you remember
especially the people I can't see but
when I could see that on your face you
remember it like you were learning
yesterday. Oh, there you go. See that?
Um the the
says look.
Okay, so that's how the sets it up.
Now there's another shila that the ram
discusses that regarding supporting
someone else's wife thatan said it's
like
the rajba says that you're only cannot
collect if you say explicitly I am
giving you this because of the mazo of
your husband. So then Kanan says that
you cannot get your money back. But if
you give a gift stam then you could
collect it because I'm not giving it as
a mat. I'm giving it as a
and the disagrees with that.
Okay. But uh we're already well beyond
the the legislated run.
Okay. Let's continue
uh in the garra. The garra says
you're allowed to return the aveda.
You're allowed to return the aveda. So
presumably that means even though you're
doing me a favor, you're returning me
the aa
and you're not I'm not get enough from
you. You're allowed to return the aida.
So we have a how to understand this
and argue about this
one says
you know what the case is the case is
the property of the returner
is on the one who it's being returned
to. So I can I positively c an c an
could return the to you when my
possessions are to you. Why? Because I'm
not giving you my possessions. I'm
giving you your possessions.
I'm giving you your thing
an article
that is his.
So if I'm if my possessions are also to
you, I could return your Aveda cuz I'm
not returning my possession. I'm
returning your possession.
But
if if
the possessions of the owner of the
article are to the returner,
you can't return it to me.
You can't return. Why? Because I, the
owner of the article, am doing you a
favor by you returning the article to
me. What favor am I doing for you? Now
that you're involved in returning the
article to me, all the 900 people who
send you links to their charity
campaign, you could tell them, "Go jump
in the lake. I'm taking the mitzvah."
You know how much money you saved? Even
if you just give let's say $18 or $36 to
each charity campaign, but since you get
about 900 a day, you've basically saved,
you know, thousands of dollars. So
actually I am benefiting you by being
the recipient of you returning to me my
cuz since you're doing a mitzvah for me
you're exempt from this is called
I'm being
holds like this has an amazing idea what
is the about somebody who is returning
an object is heam or a shak simply
should be a sham
because he is guarding it and he's not
getting paid says no you're getting
paid. What are you getting paid? You're
getting paid the fact you're in a
mitzvah. That's a h it's not a major h
cuz what's the likelihood that while
you're actively engaged in returning the
object a sedak opportunity will come
your way. It's not a likely thing, but
that is a that renders you.
If my possessions are ushered to the
returner
then if
then if you can't get enough from me
you're not return it to
the other opinion is not only if your
possessions are to me are you allowed to
return it but even if my possessions are
to you could return it
aren't you
because by returning my object you're
benefiting that You're exempt from
sodaka. You are benefiting. That benefit
is only a benefit regarding rendering
you but not regarding real. Why not?
The other opinion is even if the
you could return it. Why?
What about the
common? It's not not common. and you can
get it a solicitation right then. I
don't know maybe Bisman would be
different. But um let's see the run.
Let's see the holy run.
Okay,
here we go.
We're five lines from the bottom.
If I'm returning your object,
I'm just giving you your thing.
I
But now you're having now your object is
being returned to you
[Music]
now. So you'll say but by me returning
it to you it's not going to get ruined
or it's not going to get damaged. That's
also
in other words you giving me the a
you're giving me my thing I by giving it
to me and it's secure you're protecting
it from damage that's
not a positive damage
by the way just to point out let's say I
make that um I can't get enough from you
and a lion is coming to my property to
ruin
that guy would be allowed to chase it
away. I mean, that's the obvious uh the
obvious implication. Anyway,
when you return,
you're exempt from giving a coin to an
Now, let's think for a moment. If the
possessions
of the owner of the aveda are user to
the returner, the returner can't return
it cuz he he's he's being mah
that what that if sodaka comes he
doesn't have to pay it. So one second.
So he would be allowed to pay your debt
because that's
but you can't return that to him because
he's saving you from having to give
sodaka. That's not mar.
Sounds like
paying a debt. You're not being
mahanami. Exempting me from saddaka.
You're being Mahanami. That's hard to
wrap my head around. You know, in other
words, I have a credit, somebody has a
credit card debt. You pay the credit
card company, you're not mahanami. You
give me a mitzvah so I don't have to
give sodaka. So, think about it.
Look how indirect this is. You know,
imagine there was an appeal in the shul
and everyone's under peer pressure to
give. So if the guy said you can't get
enough from me, he'd be allowed to give
the money for the appeal.
He's not allowed to give the money for
the appeal. He's not allowed to give the
money. Not only that, he can't render
you a
bit
because then you would be putter.
Is he allowed to give you a lul of an
because if he gives you of an now he now
you're from giving sodaka during that
time that's an amazing idea
when he returns your aveda
also the fact that he's returning my I'm
giving him that of returning a he's
choosing to return the
it's amazing
when he returns the
Why is it dependent?
Is it like a
So what does the other opinion hold?
that we should say
don't return it
this case.
So then why is he
since it's possible that he'll come and
you'll be na from him.
I I So here's the thing. Maybe someone
could explain to me how could it be
that
you're not right. Let's say according to
Kanan,
let's say the Mishna like the way
interprets the Mishna that it's going
likean and the reason why you're allowed
to pay off a debt is because it's
oh you can only pay off a debt. But if
the possessions of the owner of the lost
object are user to the returner, then he
can't return the why because even though
you're allowed to pay off his debt,
that's not called Hana. But if I render
you put from giving sodaka,
I am giving you Hana. So making you put
from giving sodaka, I'm giving you Hana.
But paying off your debt is not h I mean
a debt is is a a big oil. No it's
but if I make you pot from sodak maybe
the guy doesn't want to give sodaka.
You're you're being mahana guy that
you're making from saddaka. Maybe he he
wouldn't give he he doesn't he has to
give every single ani.
Yeah
very difficult to understand.
Um,
look in Tyus.
Tyus on the bottom right hand sign
apparently asked this question.
If I seen what's the reason why it's not
considered mahana somebody to pay off
their debt the answer is cuz the guy
could say you're not mahani I knew I
would have sweet talked my way out of
the debt I owe the guy a million dollars
I would have gone to his house and said
here here's a bowl of Cheerios we're
best friends and he would have said
I would have persuaded him.
In other words, how could it be that
paying off a guy's debt is not hana but
exempting him from sedaka is hime
says
The one that pays the debt for him is
sending away the lion.
It is not definitely a damage.
The one who returns it for
says, "What would the be
like this?"
be if
I make a I can't get enough from you and
then I go into your wallet and I take
money from your wallet and I pay off my
debts. Well, you say, "Oh, I'm just I'm
not I'm not being
I'm not being n from you. I'm just
chasing away a lion." No, but if I was
the one I was telling you this similar
Yehuda this morning. Yeah, this is what
I was saying this morning.
If I come and I take money out of your
pocket to pay off my debt, then that's
not because my involvement in it sort of
renders it.
So the
in this case by it's not a third party.
I'm going and I'm returning the Ara and
I'm making myself from giving saddaka.
So it's like I personally went into your
pocket to pay off the money. So I'm
being mak of value the same way if I
would go into your wallet and pay off
the debt that's
I'm actively giving you returning the so
now that is considered a benefit that
I'm put from the it's like I went into
your wallet and took money to give to
the
soud when you asked me this morning even
though
if I say
I'm not sure if this was going to answer
it, but
I'm marrying you with the Hano that you
get that you don't have to pay.
I'm not sure
this this I this I could say clearly.
I'm not sure how it applies to Kadush,
but at least I could explain Gumar
Nadara and I that's my responsibility.
I'm not responsible for the whole but
yeah I think that's what Tyus is saying.
Yeah, it's just focusing more on the B
part like there's a B thing going on,
right? I don't know what he means by
that honestly. I hear those words are
not really mash the way I'm explaining
it.
And also yeah saying like potential in
one case as opposed to something
practically happening in the case of the
when he's performing the mitzvah.
that what
I mean let's get one thing thing to says
that even though there's is not a h but
if the debtor goes and takes money from
someone
and uses it to pay his debt that's asser
right why But he's not getting hana. It
seems like his involvement in it, the
fact that he mean it's not han really.
So why'd you do it?
Obviously you want to do it. There's
you're gaining because you did it. fact
that you did it that means you're being
na
I mean in the question Tyus was asking
the if the reason why it's not
considered hana by paying a debt is it
not buri because the guy would have
wiggled out then certainly by the ani
it's less buri because who says the ani
would come. It's that's less h because
who said he would come?
to which Tyus answers,
"But if the guy himself goes and he pays
off the debt,
by the way, maybe that means
I'm not sure if he's saying this, but
maybe that means if the guy that means
he wouldn't have wiggled it out and the
proof is cuz if he would have, why did
he go and take money uh to return it to
the uni?" Because in that case the fact
that he returned the object to you does
that mean it's very that doesn't mean
it's very likely that the uni would have
come to collect sodaka. I just think the
fact that you go ahead and and return it
I'm sorry and use the take money to pay
a debt that indicates that you value it
as a haha. So too, if you return the
lost object,
so you're creating this benefit, it's
that would be considered a han. Okay,
I'm going to hold it here and with your
permission, I'm going to have a marav
to pay off the debt, what happens? Is
that considered?
That's what you asked me this morning.
be there and
