applicable to Judaea. Ib. if one bought
from the holder of confiscated property (the fiscus or
whoever took possession of it) and then bought from the
original owner, the purchase is invalid (as being obtained

he who buys from the holder of confiscated property,
must give the original owner one fourth (of the land or
of the purchasing price), provided the original owner is
unable to repurchase the entire land &c. Ib.
