Ketuvot I

Catalog description

This course in Advanced Talmud will focus on key topics in the fourth and fifth chapters of Masekhet Ketubot related to the ketubah, the Jewish marriage contract, and its primary and secondary obligations. We will explore the relationship between the base sum of money, ikkar ketubah, contained in the marriage contract and any additional volitional commitment, tosefet ketubah, as well as the ketubah's relationship to its multifaceted derivative obligations known as t'naei ketubah.
