Someone damaged another person’s animal in way that it is now Posul to be used as a Korban, but may still be eaten. Must he pay for his damage?
He must pay the animal’s full value and he takes this animal. He caused damage!
He need not pay anything; not every animal is offered on the Mizbeyach!
He only need pay the difference in value between a Korban animal and a regular animal.
He must pay for the damage only in a case where the owner intended on using it for a Korban.
He must only pay for the damage in Yerushalayim and the surroundings, for the Stam Daas there is to use an animal as a Korban.
What did Rafram force Rav Ashi to do?
Pay damages although he only destroyed a Shtar.
Pay for an act of damage he did as a child.
Pay from the best quality merchandise.
Answers A and B.
Answers A, B, and C.
Why is there more of a reason to obligate someone who damaged stolen Chametz after Pesach, beyond someone who destroyed a Shtar?
The Chametz was itself once something of value.
There is a greater “I believe him what the value was” by Chametz than there is by Shtar.
Chametz is worth less than a Shtar.

What do the Torah’s added words he should return the stolen object “Asher Guzal” teach us?
That the stolen object must be returned to the owner, specifically, and not to the Yorshim.
That the object returned must be the same value as the day it was stolen.
That the thief may say “Harei Shelchah Lefananecha! — Your object is in front of you!”
That the thief must apologize to his victim besides for merely repaying him.
An unrelated idea, that Guzal is Roshei Teivos Gam Zu Letovah, teaching us how a person should feel when he finds out he was robbed.
