Question
Is there a prohibition of not insisting with a gentile? – Chullin 94. It is mentioned in the Baraita. But according to the reason of causing unwarranted gratitude, I don't see why there should be a distinction.
Answer
Hello,
The intention there is that someone who insists without intending to invite is deceiving his friend, who thinks they genuinely want to invite him, while the inviter is not serious.
With a gentile, there is no such problem.
