Description

The idea that lifnim mishurat hadin is hiddur mitzvah of din. The debate among rishonim regarding whether to coerce, and the question of what coercion looks like. And might we coerce people in particular categories - people of status, people of piety, or people of means? And might we coerce to help the needy? Three challenges to Rav's answer on 83a, to return the cloaks and pay the salary. And is lifnim mishurat hadin a mitzvah? Is it chesed or din? What might be its biblical root? (Skip the opening review if you didn't listen to the previous two in the series; it won't be useful.)
