Study Guide Bava Kamma 22 Rabbi Yochanan and Reish Lakish disagree regarding the nature of the reason for one's liability for damage caused by fire. Is the damage caused by the fire similar to a person shooting arrows or is it like damage caused by their property, i.e. the fire is seen as the property of the one who lit it and therefore similar to a person's ox or pit damaging? The Gemara attempts, unsuccessfully, to prove Rabbi Yochanan's approach - fire is like a person shooting an arrow.
