Why does a contractor collect his wages via an oath? Why not believe the employer? The gemara explains that an employer is readily confused and doesn't remember who has been paid, and is therefore less trustworthy. Tosafot is extremely troubled by this sugya, and is left without an answer. What is Tosafot's concern? What answers have been offered, and how is all of this connected to the principle of migo? Join us for a Gefet on the contractor's oath.
