Übersetzung des Talmud Yerushalmi

Zusatztext

The tractate Ketubbot, the second tractate in the order of Nashim (Women), deals with the laws relating to marriage discussing and defining the mutual duties and privileges of both spouses and the minimal amount of the marriage contract to which the wife is entitled in the case of her husband's death or in the case of divorce. Other topics bear on questions of the penalty in the absence of her virginity and adultery, and compensation and fines relating to the violation or seduction of certain classes of women. Discussions on the disposal of money, goods, slaves or property inherited by a widow are also part of this tractate. The final sections of the tractate deal with the last moments of the life and the burial of Rabbi Yehuda ha-Nasi, and with the duty of a wife to obey her husband's wish to move to the land of Israel and Jerusalem, a theme which demonstrates the superiority of Palestine and Jerusalem over all other lands and towns.
