Rabbi Yochanan and Reish Lakish debate whether money can acquire an item from the Torah but the rabbis decreed that it doesn’t or that only pulling works to acquire an item by Torah law. \u00a0Sources are brought to try to prove each side. \u00a0If you give a deposit and then want to change your mind, it is considered that you committed to the entire transaction or just for the part that your deposit covered? \u00a0Rav and Rabbi Yochanan debate this point. \u00a0An attempt to question Rav’s opinion is brought but the case dealt with land and the gemara explained that since land can be acquired through money, the deposit is sufficient to require both sides to follow through with the whole transaction but the same would not apply to moveable items as they cannot be acquired through money – therefore one must only keep his commitment for the part that he already paid for.<\/p>\n
