Reply To: Did I Transgress "Lo Yacheil D'varo?"

I don’t see how there could possibly be an issur of moitzi sifasecha or lo yachel.If there was, how would mechila work? For example, i agree to pay (or repay) you $50 or I agree to paint your front porch. You then are moichel.If there was some din bain adam l’makom i would still be required to pay you or paint your porch. (I used the second case to preclude a “k’ilu hiskasbalti” argument.) Moreover, even in the cases of nidrai zeruzin, where one actualy says that he swears that he wont sell an item below a particular price or asssurs his friend from hanaah if he doesn’t attend a simcha…. chazal determined that the neder is simply invalid. I am unaware of any indication in the gemorrah, meforshim or poskim that one should nevertheless” keep his word”. Its either a neder or it is not.
