Kiddsuhin 64 - 2nd Day of Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan - October 16, 1 Cheshvan

Today's daf is sponsored by the Hadran Zoom family "We extend a heartfelt Mazal Tov to our fellow learner, Eric Sommer, on the marriage of his daughter, Ariel to Nitay. In the merit of their wedding, the words of the passuk should be realized quickly: מהרה ה' א-לוקינו ישמע בערי יהודה ובחוצות ירושלים קול ששון וקול שמחה." Today’s daf is sponsored by Rabbi Lisa Malik in memory of the 7-month anniversary of the death of 12-year old Aryeh Kluger z”l and the second yahrzeit of 27-year old Jonathan Loeb on Rosh Chodesh MarCheshvan and in memory of all of the children and adults who were mercilessly murdered on Simchat Torah. May their memories be for a blessing. Today’s daf is sponsored by Rachel Savin in honor of my son Itai who is coming to Israel on aliya today. We are so proud of you.  A father is believed to testify about his daughter whether she is betrothed or betrothed and divorced but only if she is still a minor. A father is not believed to testify about his daughter to forbid her to marry a kohen (that she was taken into captivity and redeemed) What is the difference between the cases? A husband is believed to testify that his wife is exempt from yibum (he has sons or no brothers) but is not believed to obligate her in yibum (he has no sons/has brothers). Do these two rulings, that were said in the Mishna, not accord with Rabbi Natan’s approach who said in braita that a man is believed to obligate his wife in yibum. Rava and Abaye each bring explanations of how the case in braita is different from the case in the Mishna in order to prove that Rabbi Natan would also agree with the ruling in our. If one betrothed his daughter and did not say which daughter, it would not include an adult daughter. If he had two wives and two sets of daughters and he said that he betrothed the older (or the younger), there is a dispute between Rabbi Meir and Rabbi Yossi about whether all the daughters except the younger (older) are potentially betrothed or did he only mean the oldest (youngest) daughter?
