Rabbi Yochanan and Rabbi Elazar disagree about the case in the mishna. A braita is then brought which supports Rabbi Yochanan’s opinion and contradicts both Rabbi Elazar and Shmuel’s opinion. Another statement of Shmuel is brought regarding the rabbi’s opinion – that even if one doesn’t write that property is liened to the loan, it is – and it is questioned by a statement of Shmuel’s in a different context. The gemara then distinguishes between the cases – one a loan and the other a sale. A story is brought to prove this distinction. Can one back out of a deal if there are rumours circulating that the land doesn’t belong to the “owner”? At what stage and does it depend if the land was sold with achrayut? If one sold a field that wasn’t his, Rav and Shmuel debate whether or not he needs to reimburse the buyer for the improvements he did to the field.
