When a man knowingly marries an aylonit and is childless, what happens to her ketubah rights?
Halacha 1 states that the standard financial arrangements governing other women apply to an aylonit married knowingly — she is entitled to the fundamental requirement and all provisions of the ketubah.
Question 2
What distinguishes a wife's entitlement to nichsei m'log when her husband unknowingly married her in violation of a negative Torah commandment?
Halacha 8 explains that since the marriage bond is not binding, the husband never acquired rights to use the nichsei m'log; therefore he is liable for anything lost or stolen — the reverse of the standard rule.
Question 3
Which of the following is NOT listed as a violation of the 'faith of Moses'?
Halacha 11 defines violations of the faith of Moses. Spinning in the marketplace with forearms exposed is a violation of the 'Jewish faith' (Halacha 12), not the faith of Moses.
Question 4
When a wife tells her husband 'I willingly committed adultery,' what are the legal consequences?
Halacha 18 states that she loses her ketubah and rights to destroyed property due to her admission, but we suspect her motivation is attraction to another man; the court does not compel the husband to divorce her.
Question 5
In the present age, when the sotah waters are unavailable, what is the ruling for a wife who violated a witnessed warning not to seclude with a specific man?
Halacha 24 rules that without the sotah waters, the wife becomes forbidden to her husband forever and must be divorced without receiving either the fundamental ketubah or the additional amount.
