If collected it

<<he himself

<<for his debt —

<<disagree

<<about it

<<Rav Acha

<<and Ravina.

<<One

<<said:

<<it returns,

<<and one

<<said:

<<it does not

<<return.

The one

<<who said

<<it does not

<<return

<<holds:

<<this

<<a sale

<<proper

<<it is,

<<for indeed

<<of the will

<<of his own

<<he had him collect it.

<<And the one

<<who said

<<it returns

<<holds:

<<not

<<a sale

<<proper

<<it is,

<<and this

<<that he had him collect it

<<of his own will

<<and did not

<<come

<<to court —

<<on account of

<<shame

<<it is

<<that he had him collect it.

And from when

<<does he eat

<<the produce?

<<Rabbah

<<said:

<<from when

<<reaches

<<the writ of seizure

<<his hand.

<<Abaye

<<said:

<<his witnesses

<<by their signatures

<<acquire

<<for him.

Rava

<<said:

<<from when

<<are complete

<<the days of

<<the announcement.

MISHNAH:

<<One who rents

<<a cow

<<from his fellow

<<and lent it

<<to another,

<<and it died

<<in its usual way —

<<shall swear

<<the renter

<<that it died

<<in its usual way,

<<and the borrower

<<shall pay

<<the renter.

<<Rabbi Yosei said:

<<how

<<does that one

<<do

<<business

<<with the cow

<<of

<<his fellow?

<<Rather,

<<shall return

<<the cow

<<to the owner.

GEMARA:

<<Rav Idi bar Avin said to Abaye:

<<now,

<<the renter —

<<by what

<<does he acquire

<<this

<<cow?

<<By the oath.

And let say

<<to him

<<the lessor

<<to the renter:

<<remove

<<yourself

<<and remove

<<your oath,

<<and I

<<will discuss

<<the case

<<with

<<the borrower.

<<He said to him:

<<do

<<you hold

<<the renter —

<<by the oath

<<it is

<<that he

<<acquires

<<it?

<<From the time of

<<death

<<it is

<<that he acquires,

<<and the oath

<<is in order

<<to appease

<<the mind

<<of

<<the owner.

Rabbi Zeira said:

<<sometimes

<<the owner

<<pays

<<several

<<cows

<<to the renter.

<<What is the case?

<<He rented it

<<from him

<<for a hundred

<<days,

<<and then

<<he borrowed it

<<from him

<<for ninety

<<days;

<<then

<<he rented it

<<from him

<<for eighty

<<days,

<<and then

<<he borrowed it

<<from him

<<for seventy

<<days,

<<and it died

<<within

<<the days of

<<its borrowing;

<<for on every

<<borrowing

<<and borrowing

<<he is liable

<<for one

<<cow.

Rav Acha of Difti said to Ravina:

<<now,

<<one

<<cow

<<it is;

<<he brought it in

<<and took it out:

<<he took it out

<<of rental

<<and brought it into

<<borrowing,

<<took it out

<<of borrowing

<<and brought it into

<<rental?

<<He said to him:

<<and is

<<there

<<the cow

<<in existence

<<that he should say

<<to him

<<so?

Mar bar Rav Ashi

<<said:

<<he has

<<against them

<<only

<<two

<<cows,

<<one

<<of borrowing

<<and one

<<of rental.

<<The category of

<<borrowing

<<one

<<is,

<<and the category of

<<rental

<<one

<<is.

<<That of borrowing

<<he acquires

<<entirely;

<<that of rental —

<<he works

<<with it

<<the days of

<<his rental,

<<and returns

<<it

<<to its owner.

Rabbi Yirmeya said:

<<sometimes

<<both of them

<<are liable to a sin-offering;
