A dispute between R. Yochanan and Resh Lakish on the mitzvah here of seeing and being seen. Note the parallel passage to Masekhet Peah, on those mitzvot which have no limit – including “ra’ayon,” which needs defining in the context of Re’eiah. What is the extent to which we need to bring what we bring to God? Anthropomorphism par excellence. Also, a new mishnah – on what monies can be used to pay for what (when sacred property (ma’aser sheni) and when “hullin,” non-sacred property).
