(Mishnah): And he gives to her a half Kav of Kitnis (pulse, a kind of legume) and half a Log of oil, and a Kav of dried figs, or a Maneh of pressed figs;

If he cannot give these (figs), he gives other fruits.

He provides her with a bed and mattress. If he did not have a mattress, he gives to her a mat;

He gives to her a kerchief for her head and a belt. He gives to her shoes every festival, and clothing worth 50 Zuz each year.

He does not give new clothing in summer, nor worn clothing in winter. Rather, he gives 50 Zuz worth of new clothing in winter, and she wears the remnants in summer, and the remnants are hers.

(Gemara - R. Mana): The Maneh is four Ritlin (a certain measure).

He gives to her a pillow, lamp, wick, cup, barrel and pot.

R. Yosi says, she does not get a pillow, for wives of Aniyim do not sleep on a pillow.

(R. Chiyah citing R. Yochanan): If food was left over, it is his. If Balayos were left over, it is hers.

Limitation: This refers to a married woman, but a widow, whether food was left over or Balayos were left over, it is theirs (the heirs').

(Mishnah): He gives to her a silver Ma'ah each week for her needs;

She eats with him every Shabbos night;

If he does not give to her a Ma'ah each week, she keeps her earnings;

What does she do for him? She [spins] for him Shesi (lengthwise) threads (of wool) weighing five Sela'im of Yehudah, which equals 10 Sela'im of Galil;

Or she spins 10 Yehudah-Sela'im of Arev (widthwise) threads, which equals 20 Galil-Sela'im.

If she was nursing, her workload is reduced and her rations are increased;

What does this discuss? It is the poorest man in Yisrael. Someone more honored, everything is according to his standing.

(Gemara): [She eats with him] is a euphemism (for Bi'ah).

(Shimon bar Ba citing R. Yochanan): It is literally eating.

According to Rav, she eats from him. According to R. Yochanan, she eats from hers. (PNEI MOSHE - all agree that it is a night of Onah. Rav holds that also during the week, she eats with him if she wants, so he needed to explain that 'eats' is a euphemism.)

She does not get wine, for poor women of Yisrael do not drink wine. Rich women drink (so they get).

Question (Beraisa): A case occurred with Marsa bas Baisus. Beis Din apportioned for her two Sa'im (a volume between 16 and 28 liters) of wine every day. (We conclude that we do not allot wine even for rich women to drink. This question is not answered - SEFER NIR.)

Question: Does Beis Din apportion wine [for women]?!

(R. Chiya bar Ada): [They do not,] due to "Zenus Yayin v'Sirosh Yikach Lev" (wine draws the heart to Zenus)!

Answer #1 - Question: Our Mishnah says that if she was nursing, her workload is reduced and her rations are increased. What does he add?

Answer (R. Yehoshua ben Levi): He adds wine, which increases milk. (Marsa was nursing.)

Answer #2 (R. Chizkiyah citing R. Avahu citing R. Yochanan): [The wine was not to drink, rather,] to use in cooking.

Even though [they apportioned so much, it was very small in her eyes; she was the wealthiest woman of Yerushalayim.] She cursed them, and said to them 'so you should give to your daughters!'

(R. Acha): We answered Amen to her.

(R. Elazar bar Tzadok): I should [not - he did not explicitly say so, lest it be like a curse on Tenai] see the consolation [of Yerushalayim] if I did not see her picking barley [seeds] from the hoofs of horses in Ako!

I applied to her 'ha'Rachah Becha veha'Anugah..."; " Im Lo Sed'i Lecha ha'Yafah ba'Nashim Tze'i Lecha b'Ikvei ha'Tzon..."

(Beraisa): A case occurred with Miryam, the daughter of Shimon ben Guryon. Chachamim allotted for her 500 Dinarim for perfumes for each day, and she was only a Shomeres Yavam. Even so, she cursed them, and said to them 'so you should give to your daughters!'

(R. Acha): We answered Amen to her.

Note: The Bavli brings a similar case, and says that they did not answer Amen, for the curse included that their daughters fall to Yibum.

(R. Elazar bar Tzadok): I should [not] see consolation if I did not see her tied through her hair to a horse's tail in Ako! I applied to her "ha'Rachah Becha veha'Anugah..."
