Description

The sugya in Masechet Bava Kamma 90b addresses the issue of defining the exact payment for בושת. Is this a uniform sum that applies to all? Or is it subjective & reflects the specific nature of the person who was humiliated? The second half of today's sugya addresses the question: can a witness serve as a Judge?
