出埃及記 22:5 哈拉卡：Sefer HaChinukh & Mishneh Torah, Positive Mitzvot

The commandment on the court to judge damages from fire: To judge and obligate one who has damaged his fellow with fire to pay — for example, [if] he lit his stockpile or burned anything of his — as it is stated (Exodus 22:5), “If a fire goes out, etc.” The understanding of “goes out” implies even if it went out on its own (Bava Batra 22b), and it comes to warn even if one lit [a fire] on his own [property] and it went out on its own and it damaged, that he is liable — since he did not watch his coals. As a man is obligated to watch his fire that it not [spread] and damage, since it is the way of fire to spread on its own, even though it is not a living being.

To adjudicate cases of damage caused by fire, as it is said, “If fire break out and catch thorns so that there be consumed….” (Ex. 22:5).

To save the pursued even at the cost of the life of the pursuer, as it is said, “Thou shalt cut off her hand….” (Deut. 25:12).
