Text Excerpt

בת לוי ⁠– מן המעשר. בת כהן ⁠– מן התרומה.

If she was the daughter of a Levite, through these two marriages she becomes prohibited from partaking of the tithe that is given to Levites. If she was the daughter of a priest, she becomes prohibited from partaking of teruma, even after she returns to the house of her father the priest.

ואין יורשין של זה ויורשין של זה יורשים כתובתה. ואם מתו ⁠– אחיו של זה ואחיו של זה חולצין, ולא מייבמין.

And the heirs of this husband and the heirs of that husband do not inherit the rights to collect payment of her marriage contract if she dies. And if the husbands die, the brother of this first husband and the brother of that second husband perform ḥalitza, since she was betrothed to the second one as well, and they do not consummate the levirate marriage.

שינה שמו, ושמה, שם עירו, ושם עירה ⁠– תצא מזה ומזה, וכל הדרכים האלו בה.

The Mishnah proceeds to teach an additional halakha concerning a bill of divorce written not in accordance with its halakhot: If he changed his name, i.e., he wrote a different name in the bill of divorce, or he changed her name, or if he changed the name of his city or the name of her city, and she remarried on the basis of this bill of divorce, then she must leave both this first husband and that second husband. And all of those above-mentioned ways of penalizing a woman who remarried based on the bills of divorce detailed in the earlier clause of the Mishnah apply to her in this case as well.

כל עריות שאמרו ״צרותיהן מותרות״⁠ –

The Mishnah teaches another halakha associated with the previous halakhot: With regard to all of those cases in which they said that a man who died without children and left behind a widow who is, to the man’s brother, one of those with whom sex are forbidden, e.g., she is his wife’s sister, not only is there no levirate bond for her, but the rival wives of the brother who died are also permitted to marry without either levirate marriage or ḥalitza.
