Payment of damages
I read somewhere in your writings on the Shas.0 that requiring a financial payment has both a punishment and a compensation dimension.
In other words, there are two reasons to pay money after damage: one to compensate for the damage, and one to atone.
Did I understand correctly? It's a bit difficult for me to understand, I'm used to dichotomies: with a financial charge, it's either a punishment or it's compensation. And here it's both, right?

I have written more than once about the problematic nature of educational dichotomies and in general. I don't remember specifically what you quoted here. But we see that there is a dimension of compensation in this and we also see a dimension of punishment (that is why there is a Kim in the Drabs). Exactly what the relationship between these two components is, is another question.
