Ruling: [Last time, we saw the minority opinion. It gives preference to the written contract, which assigns payments to pl, strengthening his claim to the collected funds. However, it rejects the obligation of the original buyers to pay 24,000 NIS, accepting testimony that the clause was only formal documentation to preserve the tender. It also treats the receipts between the parties as binding, obligating pl to complete the promised 400,000 NIS payment, while still granting him 25% of funds def collected.]
The majority opinion differs in two major ways. First, it finds many indications, including the communications of someone with strong connections to both sides, that pl used its role as the lawyer who crafted the agreements, to write a contract that took nearly all the money for itself without sufficient justification or consent. Pl’s dishonesty continued with promising funds to extract valuable receipts from def (which obtain for pl unwarranted tax relief and obligate def taxes for non-existent profit).
While it is impossible for beit din to know how much def deserves, it is clear that when they agreed on how much def should receive, this includes pl not extracting 25% from what def received. This is strongly bolstered by the fact that if there was a decision for pl to pay def 540,000 NIS plus VAT, this should be assumed to be after deducting what def owed pl. Otherwise, one would have the illogical situation of moneys going from A to B only to be returned promptly to A (see Ketubot 110a), which is even less logical here because extra tax would have to be paid for the double payment.

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.
