Episode Synopsis

The rabbis realized they had to figure out a way to encourage people to continue to bring lost & found holy animals up to the Temple. You see, up until then, a do-gooder would need to pay out of pocket for the accompanying necessary libations - a responsibility that needless to say deterred many from fulfilling this mitzvah. Find out the solution that the contemporary rabbis came up with in today's mishna.
CC  [0:04:40]: The guy didn't finish the job! If he has a good reason - like for example, he was running for his life - does he owe you? This and more in today's Chashukei Chemed.
