Halachot regarding the obligation to pay a worker on time: what is the time frame?  Does it depend on when he worked?  How long did you hire him for?  Was it a week long job, etc.?  What time of day/night did he finish the job?  Does the same apply for a rental payment for one who rents animals or vessels?  To a ger toshav (one who keeps the seven Noachide commandments)?  These laws appear in the Torah in 2 different places.  The rabbis understand each section as referring to 2 different cases (day worker/night worker).  Do each of these apply to rentals also and to a ger toshav?  There is a 3 way tannaitic debate regarding this.
