Bava Kamma 7

All are best quality.

The common denominator.

A taxonomy of harm.

Making a list, checking it twice.

Horn and tooth.

Welcome to Bava Kamma.

Butchers, bakers and candlestick makers.

You are fire and I am mere flesh.

Doughy hands.

Proving priesthood.

Holiness in contradiction.

Unfit forever?
