A person strikes a colleague on the head and it swells, but there is no permanent damage. How many assessments must he pay?
Halachah 2 lists this case explicitly: striking the head and causing swelling without permanent damage warrants three assessments — tza'ar, ripui, and boshet.
Question 2
A person scares a colleague from behind without touching him, and the colleague falls ill from fright. What is the legal outcome?
Halachah 7 states that one who frightens without touching is patur in human courts but chayav in divine law (dinei shamayim).
Question 3
How is unemployment (shevet) assessed when the victim lost a hand?
Halachah 11 specifies that when a limb is severed, shevet is evaluated based on what the person could earn as a cucumber-field guard — the lightest available work.
Question 4
The injurer tells the victim: "I have a free doctor who will heal you." What is the law?
Halachah 18 states that the injurer's offer of a free doctor is not accepted; he must bring a professional (umman) physician who charges for his services.
Question 5
A person shaves a colleague's head permanently using a chemical so hair will never regrow. How many assessments does he owe?
Halachah 4 rules that permanently removing hair with a potion or burning obligates all five: nezeq (permanent loss), tza'ar, ripui (head heats from the chemical), shevet (he can no longer work as a hair-shaker), and boshet.
