A Jew and a non-Jew had entered into a partnership agreement whereby each conducted business independently and then shared the profits afterward. Upon settlement, it was revealed that the non-Jew had lent money to a Jew on interest. Can the Jewish partner, upon learning this afterward, retain the interest profit? How would the situation be different if he had known about it beforehand? Moses ben Samuel Israel rules that he may retain the interest in the first case but must return it to the lender in the second case.
