Se um homem causar um incêndio no campo ou na vinha de outro, e enviar seus animais para pastar ali e queimarem o campo de outro homem, ele fará restituição com o melhor de seu próprio campo e o melhor de sua própria vinha. {ס}
Sefer HaChinukh
The commandment on the court to judge concerning damages of destruction: To judge concerning the damages of the tooth and the foot — meaning to say one who damaged his fellow with a damage that came as a result of [his animal’s] foot or tooth — that we must obligate him in payment from his choice properties for all that he destroyed, as it is stated (Exodus 22:4), “If a man destroys the field, etc.” For example, one who brings his animal into the field of his fellow and he ate there; or destroyed those things that sustain themselves from it, when it passed through there with its feet. And they, may their memory be blessed, explained that it is [referring to] the tooth (Bava Kamma 2b). And they, may their memory be blessed, explained that that which is written afterwards, “and he sent its destroyer, etc.” [refers to] the foot. And it is stated about both of them, “and with the best of his field and the best of his vineyard shall he pay.”
