    • "And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;  The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his."

  2. Exodus 22:5-6

    • "If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.  If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution."

  3. Exodus 21:35-36
