*8.6 Makkos Daf 06 B (8 lines Up)**Summary*In the mishna (8.3) *Rabbi Yosi* said that *the witnesses must give the hasra’ah. **Rav Papa* commented to *Abayye: Isn’t Rabbi Yosi* of the opinion that we’re *not particular about the hasra’ah; * as we learn in a mishna that “Rabbi Yosi says an *‘enemy’ does not need a hasra’ah * because his act is clearly premeditated and he is aware of the consequences.“?*Abayye: Rabbi Yosi bar Yehuda* (one of the later tanna’im, in the generation of Rebbi) is the one who holds we are *not particular about hasra’ah. * We learn this in a beraisa: *“Rabbi Yosi bar Yehuda* says that a *chaver* (a lamdan ) *does not require hasra’ah * because he is considered forewarned “.

*8.5 Makkos Daf 06 B (11 lines Up)**Summary**Rav Nachman: ‘Individual eidus’ * is acceptable with regard to *monetary matters* as the passuk states: “He shall not be * killed * by the word of one witness”.*Rav Zutra* asked: We learned (8.3) that when *part of a singular eidus is huzam, * they are *put to death,* even though the murderer is also put to death based on the testimony of the other part of the singular eidus. But if ‘individual eidus’ is in fact valid with regard to monetary matters, then it *should be valid* even with regard to *capital crimes!* Of course we cannot administer capital punishment based on ‘individual eidus ’ as taught by the passuk (8.4), but all the witnesses should be considered one group [just as in monetary matters] and we should *save the zoimemim from capital punishment* based on the principle (7.5) that in order to punish zoimemim , the entire group must be found guilty!There is *no answer* on this.

*8.4 Makkos Daf 06 B (10 lines Dn)* To download this shiur with Tosfos, click here: http://chilp.it/cad6764*Summary**Gemara:**Rav Zutra bar Tuvia* quoting *Rav: ‘Individual eidus’ is invalid* as the passuk states: “He shall not be killed by the word of one witness”. This cannot refer to testimony given by one witness, as the passuk already states: “He shall be killed by the mouth of two witnesses ”, it means that even if there are two witnesses but they did not witness it together (each one saw the crime from a different window), their *eidus* is not accepted.A *beraisa* also teaches thus: “He shall not be killed by the word of one witness”. He cannot be killed by the word of *two witnesses* who saw the crime from two *different windows* but did not see each other. Their testimony cannot be combined *even if they saw* the crime *from the same window,* but not at the same moment.*Rav Papa* commented to *Abayye:* Why would we think that their testimony could be combined when the crime is witnessed from one window? They’re each *only witnessing part of the crime!**Abayye:* (You’re right if they witnessed a murder. But) here we’re discussing a case of a man who came upon *an eishes ish, * where each one witnessed a full crime.*Rava:* If the individual eidus *saw the masreh* (individual giving the warning, 8.3), *or he saw them*°, their *testimony is accepted.**Rava:* Even the murderer *himself can be* considered the * masreh * (if he says I know what I’m doing). *Even a sheid* can be the masreh (it doesn’t have to be a human. We don’t follow the ruling of Rabbi Yosi that the witnesses must give the warning). *°Tosfos:* And there are witnesses who testify to that effect.

Otherwise they’re* considered *two sets,* and if only two are huzam, *they are punished* for their crime *and the criminal is punished* for his crime (because there are two valid witnesses against him).*Rabbi Yosi:* Nobody is killed unless he received a * hasra’ah from both witnesses* as it states: “He shall be killed *by the mouth of two witnesses”.**An alternate explanation* of the verse: “By the mouth of two witnesses” teaches that *Sanhedrin cannot hear from a translator.* See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*8.2 Makkos Daf 06 A (Middle)**Summary**Mishna (7.6):*Just as a testimony is invalidated when one of two witnesses is found to be a relative or a passul; it is invalidated even when one of three witnesses is found passul. (Even though we have two valid witnesses).*Gemara:**Rav Papa* remarked to *Abayye:* If the presence of a passul invalidates the testimony, *the harug * (murder victim) *rescues* his murderer. (He is passul and he was present!)*Abayye* responded: Perhaps he was killed stealthily from behind and *he didn’t see* the murderer.*Rav Papa:* What about a * nirva * (if a male “came upon” another male)?*Abayye:* Perhaps the rovei’a came upon him from behind and *he didn’t see him.**Rav Papa:* What about the *murderer or the rovei’a himself?* He is also passul! [These questions are not according to Rebbi (7.6) who requires the witnesses to take part in the hasra’ah, but they are valid questions on Rabbi Yosi].*Abayye* kept quiet.When the question came before Rava, he said: The passuk says *“The matter should be established* according to the witnesses”.

9:29:05

*7.6 Makkos Daf 05 B (2 lines Up)**Summary**Mishna:*Just as a testimony is invalidated when *one of two* witnesses is found to be a relative or a passul ; it is invalidated even when *one of three* witnesses is found passul . (Even though we have two valid witnesses).[There’s a question of what is the issue here; is it that there were pessulim present at the time of the witnessing? This would be the source for the custom of medakdekim that a chosson singles out two witnesses at the chuppah and tells them “Only you are my witnesses”. Or is the problem that a non-kosher witness testified in beis din but the presence of a relative at a chuppah (for instance) would not invalidate a testimony.].[Another question; can the two kosher ones return on a different date without their third partner and restate their testimony?].How do I know that this applies *even to one of a hundred?*The passuk says * “Eidim” * (this implies *even many* eidim ).*Rabbi Yosi:* The rules set forth in this mishna apply *only to dinei nefashos but in money matters, the testimony* of valid witnesses *is accepted* even after their partner’s testimony has been invalidated.*Rebbi:* The rules apply to any testimony.An additional witness can *only invalidate* the testimony if he indicates his willingness to *participate as a witness* by joining in in the hasra’ah - warning the murderer. But if he did not participate, what can you do if two brothers happened to be present at a crime? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*7.5 Makkos Daf 05 B (10 lines Up)*

Jan 23, 2020

9:59:17

*7.5 Makkos Daf 05 B (10 lines Up)**Summary**Mishna:*It states “A man can be put to death based on the testimony of *two or three* witnesses”. “Three” is *superfluous* , the Torah wrote it in order to compare two to three. Just as we understand that three witnesses can be mazim two; *two can be mazim three* as well.How do I know that this applies *even to a hundred?*The passuk says *“Eidim - witnesses”* (this implies *even many)* .*Rabbi Shimon:* The words *“or three”* teach that just as *both witnesses* need to be huzam in order for the hazamah to be effective (3.2), so to when there are three witnesses, *all three need to be huzam * in order for the hazamah to be effective.How do I know that this applies *even to a hundred?*The passuk says * “Eidim - witnesses” * (this implies *even many* ).*Rabbi Akiva:* The third witness *cannot produce a leniency* for the others. He can only *be punished* together with them.This third witness is completely unnecessary for the plot of the first two zoimemim , and yet, the Torah punishes him with the full punishment. This teaches us that *certainly Hashem will reward* anyone who joins in with others doing a mitzvah. (That’s the big story of Yefes [see Toras Avigdor Parshas Shoftim 2 “The Third Witness”], https://torasavigdor.org/parshas-shoftim-2-the-third-witness/Sheim didn’t need Yefes’ help to cover his father, yet he received a bracha for that).

*7.4 Makkos Daf 05 B (19 lines Up)**Summary**Question:* How do we know that the laws of our mishna (7.2) regarding gemar din apply to the *punishment of malkos * as well?*Answer:* There is a * gezeira shaveh - rasha * (which is written regarding * misah * ) and * rasha * (which is written regarding * malkos * ).*Question:* And how do I know that this applies to the punishment of * galus * (for unintentional murder) as well?*Answer:* There is a * gezeira shaveh - rotzeach * (which is written regarding * murder * ) and * rotzeach * (which is written regarding * unintentional murder * ).*Beraisa:**Rabbi Yehuda ben Tabai* (a head of the Sanhedrin): I wish to see in our national consolation! (although he lived during the time of the bayis sheini , they longed for the return of the shechina like in the bayis rishon ) Because I (and my Sanhedrin) put to death an eid zomeim to disprove the tzedukim who say an eid zomeim is only killed after the person he accused was killed (7.2).(There is a difficulty here, because it seems that he only killed the eid zomeim to disprove the tzedukim, while in reality Sanhedrin has an obligation to judge edim zoimemim ).*Shimon ben Shatach:* You killed a man for nothing! The chachamim clearly say that “ Eidim zoimemim are only put to death if *both* are found to be zoimemim, (and you only found one of them to be a zoimeim ) and they only receive malkos if both are found to be zoimemim ”.Rabbi Yehuda ben Tabai immediately accepted upon himself *not to render any decisions* without running them by *Shimon ben Shatach.* Additionally, *every day he went to the cemetery,* to the grave of the eid he had ordered killed and spread himself out on the grave, and people would hear *a wailing sound* from the cemetery. The people thought it was *the sound of the dead man crying,* but the rabbi told them *it was his voice* (since he had committed a sin that was known to the people, he wanted to let them know he was doing teshuva ), he told them, you’ll see it’s my voice because *as soon as I die, you will no longer hear wailing.**Rav Acha son of Rava* commented to Rav Ashi: *What proof is that?* Once Rabbi Yehuda ben Tabai is in the next world the dead man can take him to the *heavenly court.* Or they can discuss matters and he’ll *be appeased.* See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*7.3 Makkos Daf 05 B (7 lines after spreads)**Summary**Gemara: Berebbi* (A great man): If the zoimemim did not kill, they are killed. If they did kill, *they are not killed.**His father:* Isn’t that *illogical?**Berebbi:* You have taught us (he said this to be respectful): *We do not punish based on logic.*This can be learned from a *Beraisa:*“If a man takes his sister the daughter of his father or of his mother” What about a sister who is the daughter of both? The passuk ends “He revealed the ervah of his sister”, this teaches us that even a full sister is also included in the punishment of kareis. Now, isn’t it obvious? What do we need extra words in the passuk for?We learn from here that *We do not punish based on logic,* rather we need the passuk to state it explicitly.*Question:* This passuk teaches us *the punishment* for such a sister, *where is the azhara ?* (see 5.6 for explanation of the term).*Answer:* There is another passuk that follows the same pattern (The daughter of *your father* , or *your mother, your sister * ). This passuk is the azharas lav. This teaches that *“We cannot learn a lav from logic”.* We need an explicit passuk. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*7.2 Makkos Daf 05 B (15 Lines Dn)**Summary**Reish Lakish* : It is already *established that this woman brings false witnesses* and we cannot accept the third testimony.*Rabbi Yochanan (and Rabbi Elazar):* The fact that she is a faker *doesn’t prove that all Jews are fakers* and we must accept the testimony of two kosher Jews.*Suggestion:* It would seem that *Reish Lakish* is following *the opinion of Rabbi Yehuda* (6.2 “A crooked pair cannot be relied upon”), and *Rabbi Yochanan* is following *the Chachomim* (ibid. “They can even be mazim one hundred pairs”).*Response:**Reish Lakish* does not necessarily argue with the Chachomim, because *no one brought these mazimim into beis din * - unlike the case of the woman who was the one bringing different sets of false witnesses.*Rabbi Yochanan* does not necessarily argue with Rabbi Yehuda. It is difficult to accept the Chachomim’s view because: Were *all two hundred people* really *with this one set of mazimim? * However in our case, there is nothing in the third testimony indicating that it’s false.*Mishna:* Zoimemim are not *put to death* for testifying against somebody unless he was *already sentenced.* (They’re also not punished if the sentence was carried out already).The Tzedukim refused to punish zoimemim until they had actually caused the *death* of their victim, based on the passuk nefesh b’nefesh - “a life for a life”.*The chachamim argued* from the passuk “Ka’asher zamam laasos l’achiv - As he intended to do to *his brother”* - so it seems that the brother is still around. The verse nefesh b’nefesh teaches that they are not punished until their victim’s “life” was in peril because he was sentenced. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

8:42:01

*7.1 Makkos Daf 05 A (Bottom Line)**Summary**Mishna* (6.2): The same two eidim can be mazim even a hundred pairs of witnesses. Rabbi Yehuda says this is a crooked pair. Eidim are only believed against the first set of witnesses.*Gemara:* If the witnesses are considered crooked, their words *shouldn’t be accepted against the first set* either!?*Rabbi Avahu:* The mishna refers to a case in which the *first set* was *already put to death.**Challenge:*The mishna is here to teach us halachos, *not to tell us stories* that happened.*Rava:* The mishna’s intention is: If there is *only one set* that is huzam , that’s when the mazimim are believed.*Question:* The mishna speaks of the *first set,* not of *one set* ?*Answer: That’s a good question!* (Something is wrong with the wording of the *mishna* and it needs to be amended).*Story:* A woman brought witnesses who were found to be false. She brought other witnesses who were again found to be false. Finally she brought witnesses who were not found false.*Reish Lakish:* It is already *established that this woman brings false witnesses* and we cannot accept the third testimony.*Rabbi Elazar:* The fact that she is a faker *doesn’t prove that all Jews are fakers* and we must accept the testimony of two kosher Jews.*Another time:* Such a case came before Rabbi Yochanan: *Reish Lakish* repeated his opinion, but *Rabbi Yochanan* countered with Rabbi Elazar’s prior argument. Reish Lakish was upset with Rabbi Elazar for not sharing previously that his source was in fact Rabbi Yochanan. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

*6.6 Makkos Daf 05 A (9 Lines Up)**Summary**Rava:* A & B testify that *C murdered D* on * Sunday. * But E & F testify that A & B were with them on Sunday. Although E & F also testify that *C murdered D* on *Monday; A & B are considered zoimemim * and *receive the death penalty.**Moreover,* even if E & F testify that the murder took place on * Friday, A & B still deserve the death penalty,* because C was not yet convicted.If however in addition to testifying that A & B were with them on Sunday, they also testify that *C was already convicted for murder* on * Friday. * Or even if they claim he was convicted on * Monday (before A & B testified* on Tuesday), A & B are *not put to death.**Knas:* The din is that modeh b’knas pattur - until one is sentenced, he can admit his crime and will be absolved for making any knas payments.Thus the same rule of Rava applies to knas payments. If *A & B testify* that C stole, slaughtered and sold *(geneivah + tevicha umechira* which carries a knas penalty), they must *pay the penalty* when they’re huzam by E & F, even if E & F also accuse C of the * same actions on a different day. *If however, E & F testify that *C was sentenced* before A & B testified (on * Tuesday * ), A & B are not required to pay.

*5.3-Makkos Daf 04 B (Top line)**Summary**Gemara:**Question:* We understand the rulings of *the Chachomim * . The Torah states *“K’dei rish’asoi”* (He shall be punished according to his wickedness), we understand that to mean that one can only be punished for one wickedness. But what is the basis for the ruling of *Rabbi Meir* that allows for multiple punishments?*Ulla:* Rabbi Meir follows the precedent of * Motzi shem ra * . One who falsely alleges that his wife was unfaithful gets * malkos and must also pay;* here too, one can get malkos and still be required to pay.*Challenge:* Motzi shem ra is an exceptional case of * knas * (a punitive payment rather than a restitutionary payment)! It cannot be used as precedent?*Resolution: Rabbi Meir* follows the opinion of *Rabbi Akiva* (3.1) that * hazamah is a knas. **Ikka D’masni* (a different version of *Ulla’s discussion* ):*Beraisa:**Rabbi Yehuda:* The possuk states: “ *Do not* leave over from it (the korban ) until morning; anything leftover ( * nosar * ) by morning *should be* burned”.The possuk give a positive commandment ( Eseh ) after a negative commandment ( Lo seseh - Lav ) to teach that *there is no malkos.* (This is called a *lav hanitak l’eseh;* a lav that gets moved over, and becomes an eseh . By means of the added eseh , the Torah is telling us how to remedy transgression of the lav ).*Rabbi Akiva:* There is no malkos for nosar because it’s a * lav she’ein bo maaseh * (it is transgressed passively).Apparently then, *Rabbi Yehuda’s opinion* is that there *is malkos * for a * lav she’ein bo maaseh. * See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

They receive two punishments because each is based on a *different “name"* .°*Chachomim:* If they have to pay, they cannot receive malkos. (The gemara asks that in general, the opposite is true - one who receives malkos doesn’t pay, see 5.?).(There is a general rule that we cannot give two punishments for one sin, this is the reasoning of the Chachomim. However Rabbi Meir holds that hazamah is knas and thus not limited by the laws of regular punishments; 3.1, 5.3).Mishna continues: *Rabbi Meir:* Witnesses testified that A ate neveilah and *deserves malkos * and they are found to be zoimemim, they *get malkos twice* for Lo sa’aneh, and for ka’asher zamam. *Chachomim:* They only receive malkos once.° *Rashi;* Ordinarily we say that they only receive the more severe punishment, however since here there are two different pesukim and thus two separate sins, they receive both punishments.*Tosafos:* Lo sa’aneh is not connected with hazamah, as such it remains an independent lav and requires punishment.

If terumah fell in that spot, it becomes tamei (because the wine in that spot became tamei from the person who was trying to immerse).*Question:* Why is the law of terumah mentioned? (It is obvious that if the man is not purified, he remains impure, and the wine becomes impure!)*Answer:* To teach that the man remains tamei , not because of a chazakah of tumah oil. If that were the case, then the terumah should have remained tahor because of a chazakah of taharah . But the rule is that we assume that the wine remained in place.

These opinions are not clear, however:*Rav Papa inquired:* What is the proper wording of this mishna ? Does it read “Almost 3 lug ” in both the reisha (regarding wine) and the seifa (regarding milk), or *is the word “Almost” only in the seifa ?*If the word *almost* is omitted in the reisha, the Rabbanan are saying the same din as Rabbi Yehuda Amar Rav (4.3).According to this reading of the mishna , the Rabbanan do not hold that we only consider the amount of water and the “look” is inconsequential. The look (of wine) is enough to render the mikveh kosher.*Rabbi Yochanan ben Nuri’s* opinion is that the only thing that matters is the “look” and it is enough to disqualify a mikveh even when the requisite amount of water is missing.According to this reading of Rav Pappa, *Rav’s opinion is unanimous.**Resolution:* The proper wording of the mishna *was a question to Rav Pappa,* but not to Rava (4.4).

*4.4-Makkos Daf 03 B (2 Lines up)**Summary**Rav Yehuda amar Rav:* If a bit of wine fell into 3 lug of mayim she’uvim and *colored the water,* and now this red water fell into an incomplete mikveh, *the mikveh remains kosher* (once the water no longer looks like water it cannot be considered “ordinary water” that invalidates a mikveh).*Challenge: Rabbi Chiya* said in a *beraisa:* They lowered (the water level of) the mikveh ( *they declared it possul* and drained it).*Rava:* Rabbi Yehuda amar Rav is following the opinion of *Rabbi Yochanan ben Nuri* , and Rabbi Chiya is following the opinion of the *Rabbanan.**We learned* (the opinions of the Rabbanan and Rabbi Yochanan ben Nuri) *in a mishna : Almost 3 lug * of mayim she’uvim (only a kortov was missing) that was completed by a bit of wine (which colored the water), and now this *red water* fell into an incomplete mikveh, *the mikveh remains kosher* (because it was not 3 full lug of water. We can infer from this teaching that the right amount of water would have disqualified the mikveh regardless of its color. This concurs with the opinion of Rabbi Chiya).*The mishna continues: Almost 3 lug * of mayim she’uvim (only a kortov was missing) that was completed by a bit of *milk* (which did not color the water), and now this water fell into an incomplete mikveh, *the mikveh remains kosher* (because it was not 3 full lug of water. Despite the fact that the liquid looks like a full 3 lug of water. This mishna does not take the “look” of the water into consideration at all, only it substance and composition).

*4.3-Makkos Daf 03 B (4 Lines up)**Summary* (If a mikveh has the required amount (40 se’ah) of kosher water (mei geshamim), adding other water will not invalidate it. However if the mikveh does not yet have the required amount, it is invalidated by 3 lug of ordinary (mayim she’uvim) water). *Rav Yehuda amar Rav:* If a bit of wine fell into 3 lug of mayim she’uvim and *colored the water,* and now this red water fell into an incomplete mikveh, *the mikveh remains kosher* (once the water no longer looks like water it cannot be considered “ordinary water” that invalidates a mikveh).*Challenge: Rav Kahana:* There is a mishna where *Rabbi Yosi* states: *Colored water invalidates* a mikveh. *Rava responds:* Colored water is *considered water.* But wine mixed with water is considered *“mixed wine”* (it was common practice to water down wine before drinking it).

But in the case of shevi’is he holds that the one cannot yield?).*Resolution:**Rav Anan* explained the opinion of Shmuel as heard from *Shmuel* himself: In a case where A said “On condition that *you don’t hold ona’ah * against me”, then there is *no ona’ah. *But if he said “On condition that *there is no ona’ah ”* his condition cannot be effective, because there *is* in fact a din of ona’ah in the Torah.The same holds true for shevi’is : If A said “On condition that *you don’t nullify the loan* when shevi’is comes”, the loan would not be nullified.But if he said “On condition that * shevi’is does not nullify the loan”,* shevi’is *does* nullify the loan.

*3.1-Makkos Daf 02 B (3 Lines Up)**Summary* *Rabbi Akiva: Zoimemim do not pay by their own admission.* Because it is a *knas* (a punitive payment rather than a restitutionary payment). A knas is never paid by one's own admission.*Rabbah: Hazamah is clearly a knas * , for they are killed or made to pay despite their having *done nothing* (but speak).*Rav Nachman: Hazamah is clearly a knas , for the money is still in the hands of the man they accused,* and yet they are made to pay.*Question:* Isn’t Rav Nachman saying the same thing as Rabbah?*Answer:* Indeed. Amend the text to read “ *And so says* Rav Nachman”.*Rav Yehuda amar Rav:*An eid zomeim pays *according to his part.*Does this mean that *the witnesses divide the payment* between themselves?That’s an *explicit Mishna!* (“We divide a monetary penalty but not a penalty of malkos ”).

In such a case their intention was surely to bring about a punishment of slavery. However, *if the accused or the witnesses* has the ability to pay, they cannot be sold (as mentioned in the * beraisa * ).*Rava:* Witnesses can never be sold (even when they should be; logically) becausethe possuk says "He will be sold for *his* theft", but not for hazamah .

*Summary**Rav Papa* : Kofer is certainly a kapparah , there is no argument in that regard. It is only a question of how the price is assessed.The *Rabbanan* base their assessment on *the victim,* because the term hashasa is used by the Torah with regard to paying kofer . Hashasa is also used in the case of a woman who loses a fetus. There, the value of the fetus is assessed, and the payment is based on the damage done. Here too, the payment amount is based on the damage done.*Rabbi Yishmael* says that since kofer is pidyon nafsho - a redemption of his own life, his own value is assessed.*The Rabbanan* counter that the value of the damage is what brings about pidyon nafsho.

They do not become * kohanim chalalim * (“ *He* ” is punished, not his children).2. They are not punished with * galus * (“ *He* ” has to flee, not zoimemim ).3.
