Description

For Masechet Bava Kamma 103a we will study the story of Rav Kahana's deal with the purchase of flax & its Halachik implications. Did Rav Kahana ownthe flax? If so, why should there be any issue with his profiting on the sale of the flax at an appreciated value? There seems to be no usury here, but simply profit from a sale. If, on the other hand, Rav Kahana did not own the flax, the seller had no right to sell the flax; he is therefore a גזלן and pay the appreciated value of the stolen merchandise. Again there should be no issue of ריבית.
