Unit 5

Question 1

והצדיקו את הצדיק והרשיעו את הרשע: והיא אם בן הכות הרשע

Answer 1

“When there will be an argument the righteous will be proved righteous and the wicked, wicked. And it will be if the wicked deserves lashes he’ll get them.” - In a criminal case the righteous is already known whereas in a civil case it’s in question.

“Don’t bear false witness” - This is the 9th rule of the 10 sayings which prohibits falsely testifying

Question 3

לאו שאין בו מעשה

Answer 3

“A negative commandment that does not involve an action” - A commandment one can transgress without actually committing an action

Question 4

לאו שאין בו מעשה אין לוקין עליו

Answer 4

“A negative commandment that doesn’t involve an action, we don’t give lashes” - We have learnt out that a negative commandment that involves an action gets lashes so with logic we derived that with no action you don’t get lashes.
