Kesuvos 92

KESUVOS 92 - dedicated by Rav Mordechai Rabin (London/Har Nof) for the Yahrzeit of his mother (28 Sivan).

1) RESPONSIBILITY FOR LAND TORN AWAY

(a) Reuven's creditor took the land. Shimon must compensate Reuven.
(b) Objection (Rava): Granted, Shimon accepted responsibility for others, but not if the land is taken because of Reuven!
(c) Rava admits in the following case. Reuven inherited a field from Yakov, and sold it to Shimon, without responsibility; Shimon sold it back to Reuven, with responsibility. Yakov's creditor took the field from Reuven.
1. Shimon must compensate Reuven - the creditor of Yakov is as a regular creditor (i.e. is not as Reuven's creditor).
(d) (Rami Bar Chama): Reuven sold a field to Shimon with responsibility, and Shimon wrote a document saying that he owes the money. Reuven died, and Reuven's creditor took the field from Shimon. Shimon persuaded him to take money in place of the field.
1. Reuven's children can say, our father left Metaltelim by you, and a creditor cannot take Metaltelim of orphans (i.e. you are exempted from paying for the field; also, since we inherited no land, you cannot collect compensation from us).
(e) (Rava): If Shimon is clever, he will pay the orphans with land, and he can collect compensation from it, as Rav Nachman taught.
1. (Rav Nachman): Orphans that collected land for their father's debt, a creditor can collect from it.
2) A CREDITOR COLLECTS MIDDLE QUALITY LAND
(a) (Rabah): Reuven sold all his fields to Shimon; Shimon sold one of them to Levi. Reuven's creditor comes to take a field - he may collect from whomever he wants.
1. This only applies if Levi bought Beinonis (middle quality land); but if he bought high or low quality land, Levi can say, I toiled to buy land that is not fit for you to collect!
2. Even when he bought Beinonis - the creditor only has a choice from whom to collect if Levi bought all the Beinonis that Shimon bought from Reuven - but if he left some over, he can say, I left you place to collect from!

3) A CREDITOR THAT TAKES LAND, THE BORROWER IS INVOLVED

(a) Version #1 (Abaye): Reuven sold a field to Shimon with responsibility, and Reuven's creditor comes to take it. Reuven can claim in Beis Din to try to stop him.
1. The creditor cannot say, you have no case with me, since Reuven can say, the one you take from will demand payment from me.
2. Version #2 (Abaye): Even if the field was sold without responsibility, Reuven can say, I do not want that Shimon should have complaints against me.
