`you have of mine a litra of gold.` `I have of yours only a litra of silver,` He is exempt. `you have of mine a golden denar.` `I have of yours only a silver denar, or a tresis, or a pundion, or a Perutah`; He is liable, for all are one kind of coinage. `you have of mine a Kor of grain.` `I have of yours only a lethek of beans; ` He is exempt; `you have of mine a Kor of produce.` `I have of yours only a lethek of beans; ` He is liable, for beans are included in produce. If he claimed from him wheat, and the other admitted barley, he is exempt; but R. Gamaliel makes him liable. If he claims from his neighbour jars of oil, and he admits [his claim to the empty] jars, Admon says, since he admits to him a portion of the same kind as the claim, he must swear. But the Sages say, the admission is not of the same kind as the claim. R. Gamaliel said, I approve the words of Admon. If he claims from him vessels and lands, and he admits the vessels, but denies the lands; or admits the lands, but denies the vessels, he is exempt. If he admits a portion of the lands, he is exempt; a portion of the vessels, he is liable; because properties for which there is no security bind properties for which there is security to take an oath for them. |

No oath is imposed in a claim by a deaf-mute, imbecile, or minor. And no oath is imposed on a minor; but an oath is imposed when a claim is lodged against a minor, or against the Temple. |
