*3.1-Makkos Daf 02 B (3 Lines Up)*

*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_ ”).
