Obligations in the Sabbatical Year
Question
Hi Rabbi,
Someone committed to bring me something during the vacation.
Now that I reminded him about it, he claims that he did annulment of vows on Rosh Hashanah, and that in the Sabbatical year debts are canceled, so he doesn’t have to bring it to me.
Does he have to bring it or not?
Answer
Annulment of vows releases vows, not obligations.
