Bava Batra 8b:5–10 discusses the people collecting and distributing a communal charity fund and the exercise of communal authority. It connects not leaving authority to one person with communal power, rather than distrust of an individual's honesty. This fictional group fund draws on sharing responsibility. Jin, Ara, the colleague, records and purchasing procedures are invented. Ancient staffing numbers or collection rules are not presented as modern legal duties.
