The question emerges from the following point. Pictures from various occasions indicate that some damage took place from the time that def vacated the unit until pl took charge, as the uprooted front door enabled trespassing; a trespasser apparently damaged the unit. The Yad Ramah (Bava Batra 2b) obligates someone who, due to negligence in his own property, enabled thieves to steal from his neighbor’s property. The Rama (Choshen Mishpat 155:44) cites those who agree and disagree (Rosh) with the Ramah’s opinion, without deciding between them, and Acharonim disagree which to accept. However, even according to the Rosh, there is at least a moral obligation to pay, and our arbitration agreement authorizes beit din to levy payments according to its judgment even for moral obligations. Beit din obligates def in two thirds of its estimation of the damages even though it might have been done by others due to def’s actions to pl’s property.
Regarding improvements that def made, the rule is that if one makes improvements in another’s property without permission, and the owner would have had the improvements done at some point, the owner must pay their fair value (Shulchan Aruch, CM 375:1). A witness said that before the improvements, the unit was uninhabitable. The same is true when the improver did it after what appeared to be his purchase, but the purchase was nullified (ibid. 232:14). Def did not prove that he improved the unit by 67,000 NIS, but since he is obligated 56,550 NIS, he is believed enough to not pay that money.
We will finish off the final elements next time.

The Land of Israel LGBT'S IN ISRAEL
The question was asked, how can one make Aliyah with the LGBT parades?
Kuzari -Rabbi Ari Shvat Kuzari class 7 - Five Accumulative Proofs of G-d
As a preparation for the Kuzari's classic proof of G-d from the mass-revelation at Sinai, we start here with 5 other directions to strengthen our belief which also contribute to what the Kuzari will present as well.
Ein Aya Muscle & Meaning: The Dual Nature of Gevurah (Physical Strength)
Is physical strength and fitness a necessity or an ideal? Although it if often totally overlooked among topics of Judaism, Rav Kook writes that it clearly is also a necessity to deter the many enemies of Israel, but even in Y'mot HaMashiach, in the Messianic era, to a certain extent, it's ideal continues even after our enemies will have been finished off.
Chukat "HOW ENTEBBE STOLE THE BICENTENNIAL
The Difference Between Historic & Eternal"
As we approach America's 250th birthday, it's worth remembering her 200th Bicentennial birthday, on Jul. 4th 1976, when Israel "stole the show" by shocking the world & miraculously saving 101 hostages in a foreign continent. As Pres. As Pres. Trump decides which countries get priority in his new Middle-East, it's worth reminding him of the difference between historic events and eternally historic ones. This obviously connects with this week's parsha, as well!

Kuzari -Rabbi Ari Shvat Kuzari class 5- "Proofs of G-d"
This may be the most important class of the entire book, where we finally get to the Jewish proof of the existence of G-d and truth of the Torah. We should follow His own direction where He tells us how to get to Him: through the Nation of Israel: Jewish history, Jewish prophets (and today, prophecies fulfilled), and national reward & punishment towards Am Yisrael.
Ein Aya One Humanity, One Creator, One Jerusalem
Rav Kook innovatively and beautifully explains this aggadeta where our sages say that after Jerusalem was destroyed her cinnamon fragrance is only found locked in a particular kingdom's treasury.
