[281]
He that maimeth any one, let him undergo the like himself, and be
deprived of the same member of which he hath deprived the other, unless
he that is maimed will accept of money instead of it 1
for the law makes the sufferer the judge of the value of what he hath suffered,
and permits him to estimate it, unless he will be more severe.
1 This permission of redeeming this penalty with money is not in our copies, Exodus 21:24, 25; Leviticus 24:20; Deuteronomy 19:21.
