Gittin 55b:17–56a:5 tells of Kamtza and bar Kamtza: a mistaken invitation leads to public humiliation and expulsion, retaliation and a dispute over an offering. The source places this within a religious narrative about the Temple's destruction. This modern fiction takes the initial invitation error as its motif but invents a different response: owning the error and hearing the person's choice. Jin, Ara, the theater, notices and dialogue are invented. It does not recommend violence, retaliation, blame of a group or a modern historical law of cause and effect.
