Taanit 25a:3–4 is a religious story in which Rabbi Hanina ben Dosa and his wife, suffering from poverty, receive a golden table leg. After his wife dreams of their incomplete table in the World-to-Come, they ask together for the leg to be taken back. This adaptation carries the motif of considering a choice at another time into checking the planned use of shared supplies. It does not turn the story into a modern rule that people should endure poverty or that improved circumstances bring punishment. Jin, Ara, decorations, the supply bundle, the next class and all dialogue are fictional.
