The valuation [is made] in money [but may be paid] By money`s worth, in the presence of the court and on the evidence of witnesses who are free men and persons under the jurisdiction of the Law.

קמא 1.3 שום כסף, ושווה כסף-- בפני בית דין, ועל פי עדים בני חורין בני ברית׃ והנשים בכלל הנזק׃ והניזק והמזיק בתשלומין |
There are five cases of Tam and five cases of Mu`ad. Animal is Mu`ad
neither to gore, nor to collide, nor to bite, nor to fall down nor to
kick. Tooth, however, is Mu`ad to consume whatever is fit for it; foot
is Mu`ad to break [things] in the course of walking; ox after becoming
Mu`ad; ox doing damage on the plaintiff`s premises; and man, so also the
wolf, the Lion, the bear, the leopard, the bardalis [panther] and the
snake are Mu`ad. R. Eleazar says: if they have been tamed, they are not
Mu`ad; the snake, however, is always Mu`ad. |
