Reply To: Can the severity of a sin be learned from the severity of the punishment?

Ubiq how does that show the power of תשובה ?

I doesn’t . My comment didnt make sense

I grant I dont understand the Mishna berura. Why is onoas devarim any different than say stealing (or any bein adom lachaveiro)? Both involve being over a lav thus involve an element of bein adom lamakom and lachaveiro ?

At any rate back to the subject at hand 2 points:

a. So fine youve shown that the mishna berura argues on the kitzur, at most that gets rid of exception #25
b. how do you explain the logic of the kitzur according to you this line וּגְדוֹלָה אוֹנָאַת דְּבָרִים מֵאוֹנָאַת מָמוֹן, שֶׁזֶה נִתָּן לְהִשָּׁבוֹן וְזֶה לֹא נִתָּן לְהִשָּׁבוֹן, זֶה בְּמָמוֹנוֹ וְזֶה בְּגוּפוֹ. makes no sense, since that isnt how the severity of aveiros are determined ?

I’m also not clear on how you understand the mishna in sanhedrin. HOW did chazal know Megadef and A”z are among the worst aveiros?
