Bava Kamma 59: How Mourning the Temple Is Relevant to Damages

from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

More on R. Nachman's assessment of damages for the chopped-down tree, and his arrival at one-sixtieth of the value. Plus, the story of wearing black shoes like a mourner in the home of the exilarch, and how it can be a sign or piety or arrogance. With a test case to determine the difference going back to this kind of 1/60th. Also, 2 mishnayot about damage to one's produce in another person's yard, or as brought to the threshing floor, plus fire in the hands of those who can't be responsible enough for preventing damage by fire.
