And for the third time, your response was when one of the four sons asked, "What is this service to you?" as if we were not commanded in the Torah, "You shall know this day and take it to your heart that the Lord is God," and numerous verses in the Torah, Prophets, and Writings emphasize this, not to mention the words of our Sages. You have also returned to being part of the group of those who speak slander and accept it, by saying that there are already several witnesses against us that we disrespect the sages, and we cannot deny it anymore, and so on.
And it is well-known and widely acknowledged that testimony is only accepted in the presence of a judge. From the Torah, there is no distinction between monetary cases and capital cases regarding examination and investigation, as the esteemed Maimonides (may his memory be blessed) stated in Chapter 3 of the Laws of Testimony. However, the sages have said that in order not to shut the door on Levi, monetary witnesses require examination and investigation, and so on.
These matters apply to acknowledgments, loans, gifts, and sales. However, in cases of penalties, examination and investigation are required, not to mention cases of lashes and exile. In cases of exceptional severity, even in monetary cases, examination and investigation are necessary.
