R. Simeon said: in respect of that wherein the husband is at an advantage when he marries his wife he is at a disadvantage when he divorces her and in respect of that wherein he is at a disadvantage when he marries her he is at an advantage when he divorces her. How so? Produce which is attached to the ground is the husband`s when he marries his wife and hers when he divorces her, whilst produce that is detached from the ground is hers when she marries but the husband`s when she is divorced. |

If aged bondmen or bondwomen fell to her [as an inheritance] they must
be sold, and land purchased with the proceeds, and the husband can enjoy
the usufruct thereof. R. Simeon b. Gamaliel said; she need not sell
them, because they are the pride of her paternal house. If she came into
the possession of old olive-trees or vines they must be sold, and land
purchased with the proceeds, and the husband can enjoy the usufruct
thereof. R. Judah said: she need not sell them, because they are the
pride of her paternal house. |
