Notes
Text breaks denoted by two open spaces.
Mostly deals with the inheritance of a wife, citing Numbers XXXVI 2-3, 11-12 and Mishnah Bekhorot VIII 10. Yet, this is apparently a digression. After a text break, the narrative returns to the subject of robbery and oppression.
This discussion opens with a mention of [פסר אלאבא זכ[רונ.] לב[רכה, referring to the Ancient Fathers, meaning the Tannaitic sources, as Sifra is cited in this paragraph (Ḳodashim, par. II 9).
