KY apologies
my numbers got jumbled
21 should be רַגְלַ֥יִם מְ֝מַהֲר֗וֹת לָר֥וּץ לָֽרָעָה
24 is hitting someone (gets malkos whereas maiming someone doesnt)
“Number four is In rashi”
I’m sorry I’m not sure which Rashi you are referring to.
IT is a Gemara Sanhedrin 64b if that helps .
And again to be clear, I’m not asking why it doesnt get a more severe punishment. I’m asking how do you know it is a worse averia (assuming it is)
Here are my current questions again for ease of reference
1) Which is a worse act sacrificing all chidren to moilech, or some, and how do you know?
2) whcih is a worse act hitting someone in a light way (where there is no tashlumin so he gets malkos) or maiming someone (where he pays and deosnt get malkos) . and how do you know?
3) Is a girl who says steal my money but dont rape me, over lifnei iver because she is causing her assailant to do a worse aveira? what about a bystander who makes the offer ?
