The Torah lists six La'avin on one who lends with Ribbis, and two on one who pays back Ribbis. Why is it wrong for one to make money that way, and why shouldn't the lender express gratitude? With gratitude to Rav Hershel Welcher for helping me prepare this dvar torah. Hope you find in thought provoking. Beis Horaah l’Inyanei Ribbis hotline is at (845) 493-8604. Have a good Shabbos.
