REFLEXIVE RESPONSES

[99b middle] RambaM: When an agent makes a mistake in a sale – If the agent did not specify that he was acting on another’s behalf, then the sale stands, but if he specifically stated that he was acting on behalf of his sender, then (if his actions are not in accordance with the sender) the sale is subject to nullification.

D-E-ep Thoughts: All of our actions in this world should always be on behalf of G-d. We are here as His agents, to bring more of His light and glory into the world. We must make others realize that what we do is for the sake of the sanctification of Hashem. If there ever comes a time (G-d forbid), when we act out of anger or impulsive physical response, we must take a moment to pause and recognize if this is what our “Sender” wishes to be done or not.
