Police detectives conducted an operation on Friday after a number of cases in the past month during which businesses selling wigs in Jerusalem were damaged.
Police officers were waiting at one of the businesses for the suspect, who arrived at the scene armed with a hammer and spray paint and broke down the business door.
As he began to damage the store he was caught in the act and arrested.
At the end of his interrogation, the court approved extending his detention by four days
Crime of the century. The gestapo will likely hang, draw and quarter him.
ReplyDeleteAnd you claim to be a proper "orthodox Jew "
ReplyDeleteI hope that they applied a little "mussar" to his backside, as they were tackling and arresting him.

destroying someone's proeprty and livelihood is geneivah, whcih is forbidden in the Jewish 10 Commandments - something you were obviously unaware of.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the Talmud (Sanhedrin 86a) the prohibition of "Lo Tignov", which is found among the Ten Commandments (Shemos 20:13), is referring to stealing a person (kidnapping). The verse that refers to stealing property, is "Lo Tignovu" (Vayikra 19:11) [See Rashi ibid. and ibid.].
ReplyDeleteThere is an ancient debate, regarding if there a source in the Torah that prohibits a person from damaging someone else's property, and if yes, what is it?
To my knowledge, there is not a single source that points to either of the above mentioned verses, as being the relevant verse. The closest that might be the correct verse, is "Lo Tigzol" (Vayikra 19:13).
See ibn Ezra and sforno on לֹ֣֖א תִּֿגְנֹֽ֔ב
ReplyDeleteFrom the 10 commandments
They include regular theft, and sforno includes genievas daas.
Regarding nezikin, I'm sure you know more than i do on the topic.
Basis? Maybe bal tashchit?
here's a bit of Kitzur on the subject:

It is clearly against halacha , but no torah verse cited therein.
if it against halacha, and Moe is ignoring it, with his sarcasm, then it shows Moe is not really interested in practical Halacha.
Do you prefer that vandals are not apprehended and punished? What kind of religion is that view based on?
ReplyDeleteIbn Ezra often differed with the Rabbis of the Talmud regarding the meaning of Biblical texts. As a Jew who believes in the veracity and authority of the Talmud, as the repository of the Oral Torah, given to us at Sinai, I will always pick the Talmud’s interpretation, over Ibn Ezra’s.
ReplyDeleteand you don't think any chiddush is allowed by great meforshim, including Sforno?
ReplyDeleteOr perhasp they had sources which puny minds (at least mine) don't know?
