**אַלְמָנָה נִזּוֹנֶת מִנִּכְסֵי יְתוֹמִין.** בֵּין קַרְקָעוֹת בֵּין מִטַּלְטְלִין. דִּתְנַאי כְתֻבָּה הוּא, וְאַתְּ תְּהֵא יַתְבָא בְּבֵיתִי וּמִתַּזְּנָא מִנְּכָסַי:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
אלה ניזונת מנכסי יתומין – whether land or movables, for it is the condition of the Jewish marriage contract: “And you will dwell in my house and be supported from my property.”

**וְאֵין חַיָּבִין בִּקְבוּרָתָהּ.** שֶׁהַבַּעַל חַיָּב בִּקְבוּרָתָהּ תַּחַת יְרֻשָּׁתָהּ, וְעַכְשָׁיו שֶׁיּוֹרְשֶׁיהָ גּוֹבִין כְּתֻבָּתָהּ מִיּוֹרְשֵׁי הַבַּעַל, הֵם יִקְבְּרוּהָ. וּמִמֵּילָא שָׁמְעִינַן שֶׁאִם מֵתָה וְלֹא נִשְׁבְּעָה עַל כְּתֻבָּתָהּ, שֶׁעַכְשָׁיו אֵין יוֹרְשֶׁיהָ גּוֹבִין כְּתֻבָּתָהּ, עַל יוֹרְשֵׁי הַבַּעַל מֻטָּל לְקָבְרָהּ:

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
ואין חייבין בקבורתה – for the husband is liable in her burial in place of her inheritance, and now those who inherit her collect her Ketubah settlement from those who inherit the husband – and they would bury her and of itself, we learn that if she died, and did not take an oath about her Ketubah, for now, her heirs do not collect her Ketubah, and it is placed upon the husband’s heirs to bury her.

מוכרת שלא בבית דין – meaning to say, that is not in a Jewish court of specialists/experts, but nonetheless, she needs to sell in the presence of three who would be expert in estimation of the land.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
רבי שמעון אומר מן הנשואין – that she sells for food, selling not before a Jewish court for it is impossible to her to be sitting [and suffering] until she they would obligate for her a Jewish court. But from the betrothal, where here sale is not for anything other than the Ketubah, she does not sell it other than in a Jewish court, but the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
she cannot sell the rest. The supplement [is not sold] other than in a Jewish court, and our Mishnah is according to Rabbi Shimon who said: she does not sell when not in a Jewish court other than for food, and this, since she has collected part of her Ketubah settlement, she lacks food/support.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
וגרושה לא תמכור – her Ketubah other than before a Jewish court. What is the reason? The Rabbis stated that a widow whether from betrothal or from marriage sells not in the presence of a Jewish court because no man wants that his wife should be despised in a Jewish court and this is the case since she is a divorcee and he doesn’t care, but the Halakha is according to the Sages that a woman sells whether for her Ketubah settlement or for food/support not in the presence of the Jewish court of specialists and even if she had received part of her Ketubah settlement, she sells for food/support until she receives all of her Ketubah settlement and when she sells, whether for her Ketubah or for food/support, she needs an oath and does not require announcement.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
שוה מאתים במנה נתקבלה כתובתה – for we tell her “you have suffered loss/ruin and that which is worth a Maneh [that was sold] for two hundred, even though it gained in value, one cannot say: “I will make a profit for a person who sends his agent to the market to do business and he purchased it cheaply, everything goes to the owner of the money and we don’t hear from here other than regarding a thing that has no limit such as the case of land whose manner is for it to be sold through mere sight/estimate – this one for less and that one for more, but a thing that has a limit and the agent purchased it for less, the law is not made clear to us from this and becomes fit for something remarkable for they argued about it and the conclusion is according to [what] appears to us that the agent and the person sending the agent are arguing about.

**Bartenura on Mishnah, trans. by Rabbi Robert Alpert, 2020:**
לעולם מכרה קיים – and she should return the Denar to the inheritors for what loss did she cause them? Until it would be a fraudulent representation in order that if it were no overreaching, the field would remain worth nine Kabim which is the measure of the field,

A sterile woman/incapable of conception [does not receive her Ketubah] because it is a business transaction in error.
