## Yevamot Daf 57b

###### Yevamot 57b:1
[Yevamot 57b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:1)

יֵשׁ חוּפָּה לִפְסוּלוֹת. וּשְׁמוּאֵל אָמַר: אֵין חוּפָּה לִפְסוּלוֹת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**There is** significance **to** a priest entering **a wedding canopy** with women who are **unfit** to marry a priest. If a priest’s daughter who is unfit to marry a priest enters the wedding canopy with a priest, she becomes disqualified from partaking of *teruma* from her father’s household. This is the case even if the priest did not betroth her and they did not engage in sexual intercourse. **And Shmuel said: There is no** significance **to** a priest entering the **wedding canopy** with women who are **unfit** to marry a priest. Only sexual intercourse disqualifies her from the privileges of priesthood.


###### Yevamot 57b:2
[Yevamot 57b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:2)

אָמַר שְׁמוּאֵל: וּמוֹדֶה לִי אַבָּא בְּתִינוֹקֶת פְּחוּתָה מִבַּת שָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים וְיוֹם אֶחָד, הוֹאִיל וְאֵין לָהּ בִּיאָה, אֵין לָהּ חוּפָּה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Shmuel said: And Abba,** i.e., Rav, whose first name was Abba, **concedes to me, with regard to a girl less than three years and one day old,** that she is not disqualified by merely entering the wedding canopy. **Since there is no** legal significance to an act of **intercourse** with **her, there is no** legal significance to entering the **wedding canopy** with **her.**


###### Yevamot 57b:3
[Yevamot 57b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:3)

אָמַר רָבָא, אַף אֲנַן נָמֵי תְּנֵינָא: בַּת שָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים וְיוֹם אֶחָד מִתְקַדֶּשֶׁת בְּבִיאָה, וְאִם בָּא עָלֶיהָ יָבָם — קְנָאָהּ, וְחַיָּיבִין עָלֶיהָ מִשּׁוּם אֵשֶׁת אִישׁ, וּמְטַמְּאָה אֶת בּוֹעֲלָהּ לְטַמֵּא מִשְׁכָּב תַּחְתּוֹן כְּעֶלְיוֹן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rava said: We, too, learn** in the following *baraita* that there is no legal significance to an act of intercourse with a girl less than three years old: **A girl three years and one day old can be betrothed via sexual intercourse; and if** she was a *yevama* and her ***yavam* had intercourse with her, he has acquired her; and** a man who has intercourse with her while she is married to someone else **is liable on her account because** of the prohibition of intercourse with **a married woman; and** if she experiences a menstrual discharge **she renders ritually impure a man who has intercourse with her, so that he renders impure the object upon which he lies like the upper one.**


###### Yevamot 57b:4
[Yevamot 57b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:4)

נִשֵּׂאת לְכֹהֵן — אוֹכֶלֶת בִּתְרוּמָה. בָּא עָלֶיהָ אֶחָד מִכׇּל הַפְּסוּלִין — פְּסָלָהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
If **she is married to a priest she may partake of *teruma*.** If **one of those** who render women **unfit** for marrying a priest **had intercourse with her, he has disqualified her** from being able to partake of *teruma*.


###### Yevamot 57b:5
[Yevamot 57b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:5)

בַּת שָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים וְיוֹם אֶחָד, הוּא דְּמִפַּסְלָה בְּבִיאָה — מִפַּסְלָה בְּחוּפָּה. הָא פְּחוּתָה מִבַּת שָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים וְיוֹם אֶחָד, דְּלָא מִפַּסְלָה בְּבִיאָה — לָא מִפַּסְלָה נָמֵי בְּחוּפָּה. שְׁמַע מִינַּהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rava infers from this *baraita* that **it is a girl three years and one day old who is disqualified via intercourse,** and consequently **she is** also **disqualified via the wedding canopy.** However, a girl who is **less than three years and one day old, who is not disqualified via intercourse, is also not disqualified via the wedding canopy.** The Gemara concludes: Indeed, **learn from this** that it is so.


###### Yevamot 57b:6
[Yevamot 57b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Yevamot/r/57b:6)

אָמַר רָמֵי בַּר חָמָא: יֵשׁ חוּפָּה לִפְסוּלוֹת — בָּאנוּ לְמַחְלוֹקֶת רַבִּי מֵאִיר וְרַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rami bar Ḥama said:** With regard to the question of whether **there is** legal significance **to** a priest entering the **wedding canopy** with women who are **unfit** to marry a priest, **we have arrived at the dispute** cited in the mishna between **Rabbi Meir** on the one hand **and Rabbi Elazar and Rabbi Shimon** on the other.
