Hiding Your Eyes from Tzedakah (Hilchos Matnos Aniyim 10:3)
Length: 26 minutes
Synopsis: This afternoon (1/31/22), in our Rambam Bekius mini-shiur, we picked up where we left off last time in the 10th chapter of Hilchos Matnos Aniyim. Today's topic was the Rambam's statements about the person who hides their eyes from aniyim in order to not give tzedakah. We focused on the three levels of condemnation listed by the Rambam, and brainstormed various approaches. We'll take another swing at this tomorrow (בג"ה).
