**The Jerusalem Talmud, translation and commentary by Heinrich W. Guggenheimer. Berlin, De Gruyter, 1999-2015:**
**MISHNAH:** There exist women¹ permitted to their husbands but forbidden to their levirs, permitted to their levirs but forbidden to their husbands, permitted to both of them, or forbidden to both.
The following are permitted to their husbands but forbidden to their levirs: If a simple priest was betrothed² to a widow and has a brother who is High Priest, or a qualified man married a qualified woman and has a disqualified brother³[priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a *qualified* brother., or an Israel married an Israelite woman and has a bastard brother, or a bastard married a bastard woman and has an Israel brother, [the women] are permitted to their husbands and forbidden for their levirs.

footnotes:
¹ Women who are forbidden but not by an incest prohibition whose marriages are nevertheless valid, cf. Halakhah 2:3.
² In the Babli: is married to.
³ In the Babli: If a desecrated

**The Jerusalem Talmud, translation and commentary by Heinrich W. Guggenheimer. Berlin, De Gruyter, 1999-2015:**
**HALAKHAH:** “There exist women permitted to their husbands,” etc. Rebbi Niḥa bar Sava asked before Rebbi Jonah: Why “married”? Even “betrothed”! Why a widow? even a virgin⁴ is a version modified according to the discussion here.
The questions refer to the Cohen who has a brother who is High Priest. A widow is forbidden to the High Priest even if she is not a sister-in-law. The same questions are asked in the Babli, 84a.! Are these all? She and her co-wife⁵ ed. Ḥ. Albeck, p. 89, Note עה.. I also have others: The co-wife of one suspected of adultery is permitted to her husband and forbidden to her levir⁶5:11–31 (*Sifry Num.* 8). If the husband dies before he can bring his suspected wife to the Temple, she cannot be married in levirate and neither can her co-wife but the suspicion of adultery of one wife has no bearing on the status of the co-wife in the marriage.. If his brother had slept with the sister of one who had performed *ḥalîṣah* with him, she is permitted to her husband and forbidden to her levir⁷ with brother B. If A dies childless, his widow is forbidden to B. However, this prohibition is purely rabbinical and its place should be in the discussion of Mishnah 5.. If a qualified [priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a desecrated brother, she is permitted to her husband and forbidden to her levir⁸. This supports Rebbi Jonah, since Rebbi Jonah said, the groupings of Rebbi are not exhaustive⁹.

footnotes:
⁴ The questions show that the Mishnah before the Amoraim was the Babylonian version and that the Mishnah in the Yerushalmi ms. and editio princeps
⁵ He holds that with a woman also the co-wife is forbidden; cf. Mishnah 2:3 and the commentary of Meïri, Bet Habeḥira, Yebamot,
⁶ A woman formally charged by her husband as a possible adulteress is forbidden to her husband until she undergoes the ordeal described in Num.
⁷ Brother A had married the sister of a woman who had performed ḥalîṣah
⁸ While a qualified woman is not forbidden to marry a desecrated or otherwise disqualified man (see the next paragraph) and could have married the disqualified brother in a first marriage, she cannot be married in levirate since her child would be barred from the priesthood and could not come “in place of the deceased” who was a priest. The widow therefore is forbidden to the disqualified brother by the incest prohibition of the sister-in-law.The mention of this sentence here is not a scribal error as assumed by the commentaries.
⁹ Accepted by the Babli, 84b.

**The Jerusalem Talmud, translation and commentary by Heinrich W. Guggenheimer. Berlin, De Gruyter, 1999-2015:**
“If a qualified [priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a desecrated brother, she is permitted to her husband and forbidden to her levir.” Did not Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun say in the name of Rav that a proselyte, a freedman, and a disqualified priest are permitted priestly [wives]? So is the Mishnah: If a qualified [priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a desecrated brother. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said in the name of Rav: A proselyte, a freedman, and a disqualified priest are permitted priestly [wives]. What is the reason? Qualified men are warned against disqualified women and disqualified men against qualified women but not disqualified women against qualified men nor qualified women against disqualified men. Did we not state: “they should not take, should not take”, which teaches that the woman is warned through the man? They wanted to say, qualified women against disqualified women but it is only disqualified women against qualified women¹⁰.
“If a qualified [priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a desecrated brother, she is permitted to her husband and forbidden to her levir.” Did not Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun say that a proselyte, a freedman, and a disqualified priest are permitted priestly [wives]¹¹? So is the Mishnah: If a *desecrated* [priest], married to a woman qualified for the priesthood, has a *qualified* brother¹². Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said in the name of Rav: A proselyte, a freedman, and a disqualified priest are permitted priestly [wives]. What is the reason? Qualified men are warned against disqualified women but not disqualified women against qualified men nor qualified women against disqualified men. Did we not state¹³ 1(12). The verse *Lev*. 21:7, “A promiscuous and a desecrated woman *they should not take* and a woman divorced from her husband *they* *should not take*…” The two prohibitions are interpreted as one for the man, not to take a disabled wife, and one for the woman, not to seduce a man into a forbidden marriage.: “they should not take, should not take”, which teaches that the woman is warned through the man? They wanted to say, qualified women against disqualified *men* but it is only disqualified women against qualified *men*¹⁴.

footnotes:
¹⁰ This paragraph is in very bad shape. It seems that it should be corrected as follows:
¹¹ Priestly women are not enjoined to stay in their priestly status. The Babli concurs, 84b, also in the name of Rav.
¹² Since the wife is disabled for the priesthood by her marriage to the desecrated man, she is forbidden to the brother.
¹³ Babli 84b, Sifra Emor Pereq
¹⁴ The clause “nor qualified women against disqualified men” is shown to be false.

¹⁵ A quote from Mishnah 2, irrelevant for the sequel.
¹⁶ In Mishnah 3, the mention of betrothal is essential; in Mishnah 4 the mention of marriage. In Mishnah 2, either betrothal or marriage may be mentioned for the High Priest’s brother.

**MISHNAH:** Secondary prohibitions instituted by the Sopherim²¹. If she is secondarily prohibited to the husband but not to the levir, she is forbidden to the husband but permitted to the levir²². Secondarily prohibited to the levir but not to the husband, she is forbidden to the levir but permitted to the husband. Secondarily prohibited to both of them, she is forbidden to both of them. She may claim neither *Ketubah*²³ nor usufruct²⁴ nor upkeep nor wear²⁵ but the child is qualified²⁶ and one forces him to divorce her²⁷. A widow married to the High Priest, a divorcee of one that performed *ḥalîṣah* married to a simple priest, a female bastard or a Gibeoness married to an Israel, and Israel woman married to a Gibeonite or a bastard have a claim of *Ketubah*²⁸.

footnotes:
²¹ Cf. Mishnah 2:4.
²² Since the first marriage was legitimate by biblical standards the levirate also will be legitimate by biblical standards.
²³ Cf. Chapter 4, Note 84.
²⁴ She cannot reclaim the usufruct the husband had from her dowry during the marriage.
²⁵ If part of the dowry was in the form of vessels or clothing, she cannot claim the diminution in value caused by wear during the marriage.
²⁶ Since the marriage is completely legitimate by biblical standards, the child is qualified even for the office of High Priest.
²⁷ The rabbinic court if it has the power to do so. All these rules are made to dissuade women to consent to such a marriage which otherwise they would have no incentive to refuse since the children are qualified.
²⁸ Since in this case the children are disqualified, the woman has every incentive not to agree to such a marriage.

Since she is permitted to him, she has *Ketubah*, or because the *Ketubah* is a lien on the estate of her first husband and she was forbidden to him, does she have no *Ketubah*²⁹; in this case, the court will actively prohibit a claim of *Ketubah*.?

Rebbi Yose the Sidonian³³ stated before Rebbi Jeremiah, in disgreement with Rebbi Jeremiah³⁴: “He has the right to what she finds and earns, and to dissolve her vows.” What means “no usufruct”?

Rebbi Abun asked before Rebbi Mana: May the slaves of a secondarily forbidden [wife]³⁷ eat heave? He said to him, be quiet, it is better for you. She eats³⁸ but her slaves do not eat³⁹ 6:20, commentary of Radbaz.).

footnotes:
³⁷ The mortmain slaves of the wife of a Cohen.
³⁸ Her marriage is legitimate by biblical standards.
³⁹ Since the husband has no obligation to feed her and her slaves, the acquisition is not complete and the slaves cannot eat from what the Cohen does not have to give them (Maimonides, Hilkhot Terumah

**The Jerusalem Talmud, translation and commentary by Heinrich W. Guggenheimer. Berlin, De Gruyter, 1999-2015:**
There, we have stated⁴⁰ 9:8.: “A forced bill of divorce is valid in Israel⁴¹; it is invalid from Gentiles.⁴²” Samuel said, it is invalid and disqualifies for the priesthood⁴³. And Samuel said, publicize in your towns: It is invalid and disqualifies for the priesthood. Samuel said, one does not force, only disqualify⁴⁴. Samuel said, one does not force except for example a widow married to a High Priest, a divorcee or one freed by *ḥalîṣah* for a simple priest. But did we not state: “Secondarily forbidden”? Did he not say “for example”⁴⁵? But did we not state: “A person who by a vow forbids his wife to have any usufruct from him, up to 30 days he shall appoint a caretaker; after 30 days he shall divorce her and pay *Ketubah*”! We heard that he shall divorce; did we hear that one forces him⁴⁶?

footnotes:
⁴⁰ Mishnah Giṭṭin
⁴¹ If a rabbinic court forces the husband to divorce his wife, the divorce is valid.
⁴² If the wife appeals to the Gentile court or ruler to force a divorce from her husband, the divorce document is invalid (except, as stated in the Mishnah, if the Gentile court or ruler forces the husband to obey the directives of the rabbinic court.)
⁴³ The woman who uses the instruments of the Gentile government to force a divorce is not divorced but disqualified for the priesthood.
⁴⁴ In the absence of parallel sources, it is difficult to ascertain the exact text and its meaning.
⁴⁵ He approves of judicial intervention in the case of any sinful marriage, whether by biblical or rabbinic standards.
⁴⁶ In this case, only moral pressure is acceptable; one may not jail the recalcitrant husband until he agrees to a divorce.

What is the difference between these and those⁴⁷ at the time of divorce and the secondarily prohibited who do not.? Since these are words of the Torah and the words of the Torah do not need support, therefore they have *Ketubah*. Those, because they are words of the Sopherim and the words of the Sopherim need support, therefore they do not have *Ketubah*. Some want to say since these are punished together with the child, they did not fine them, therefore they have *Ketubah*. Those, since they are not punished together with the child, they fined them, therefore they do not have *Ketubah*⁴⁸ What is the difference between them? He who remarried his divorced wife after she had remarried⁴⁹. For him who says since these are words of the Torah, and this case is a word of the Torah, therefore she has *Ketubah*. For those who want to say since these are punished together with the child, this one, since neither she nor the child is punished, therefore, she has no *Ketubah*.

footnotes:
⁴⁷ Between the disqualified women married to priests who receive Ketubah
⁴⁸ A more detailed discussion is in Tosephta 2:4/Babli 85b. Both these sources stress that a disqualified woman has no reason to seek out a Cohen since her child will be desecrated whereas a secondarily forbidden (who might be permitted to him by another sect) might want to be married by a relative.
⁴⁹ This case is not discussed in the parallel sources.

Rebbi Eleazar said to him, one says to [him]⁵² as לו., divorce her! And you say so? They wanted to say so, they differ about the conditions attached to a *Ketubah*⁵³ Chapter 4).. Everybody agrees that she cannot claim support since they even punished her heirs, so much more herself.

**The Jerusalem Talmud, translation and commentary by Heinrich W. Guggenheimer. Berlin, De Gruyter, 1999-2015:**
**HALAKHAH:** “A Cohen’s daughter married to an Israel,” etc. Rebbi Leontes asked before Rebbi Yose: One understands that a Cohen’s daughter who was married to an Israel returns to eat. But why does the daughter of an Israel married to a Cohen not eat when she should be enabled to eat⁶⁹? He said to him, so said Rebbi Ze‘ira, Rav Anan in the name of Rav: What means “a Cohen’s daughter⁷⁰. 22:13.”, one who is trained by a Cohen. As you say, “Babylon’s ransacked daughter,⁷¹. 137:8, speaking of Edom.” was she the daughter of Babylon? But she behaved in Babylon’s way. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun in the name of Rav: Two daughters are mentioned in the paragraph⁷². 22:12, a daughter who does not eat, *Lev*. 22:13 one who does eat.. One returns and eats, the other returns but does not eat. A Cohen’s daughter who was married to an Israel returns to eat. A daughter of an Israel married to a Cohen returns but does not eat. Say also, if she was married to a qualified person, she returns and eats, to a disqualified person she returns but does not eat⁷³. Rav said, practice is that she returns to eat heave but not to eat breast and foreleg⁷⁴. Rebbi Joḥanan said, she eats breast and foreleg. Rebbi Ḥiyya stated a support for Rav: “*of* food,⁷⁵. 22:13. “If the daughter of a Cohen becomes a widow or divorcee without issue, she returns to her father’s house as in her youth; she shall eat *of* her father’s food.” As usual, the prefix מ is used as partitive. The same argument (anonymous) in *Sifra Emor Pereq* 6(1), Babli 87a.” not all the food. Rebbi Simeon ben Ioḥai stated a support for Rebbi Joḥanan: “of her father’s food she shall eat,” to include the loaves of the thanksgiving sacrifice and the cakes of the *nazir*.
