ISBN-13: 9781616195113. ISBN-10: 1616195118. Epstein, Louis M. The Jewish Marriage Contract: A Study in the Status of the Woman in Jewish Law. Originally published: New York: Jewish Theological Seminary, 1927. xvii, 316 pp. Reprinted 2005, 2015 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781616195113. ISBN-10: 1616195118. Paperback. New. $29.95 * A cogent and compelling examination of the history and significance of the Jewish marriage contract, the Ketubah, with extensive notes in Hebrew and English. As Epstein notes in the preface, the Ketubah offers an excellent introduction to the character of Jewish marriage because it is not a sentimental, rhetorical or subjective text. Instead, it is "a legal document embodying the essential points agreed upon by the parties and sanctioned by the law as to the manner of their living together as husband and wife" [2]. This work will interest those concerned with property rights, family, divorce, and the evolution of betrothal and marriage. …

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Jewish Marriage Contract' is a seminal scholarly study exploring the legal, historical, and social evolution of the Ketubbah. Written by Louis M. Epstein, a distinguished authority on Jewish law, this work provides a comprehensive analysis of the matrimonial obligations and protections established within the Jewish legal tradition. The book traces the origins of the marriage contract from biblical times through the rabbinic era, examining how these documents served to safeguard the rights of women and define the economic foundations of the family unit.Epstein meticulously details the various clauses of the Ketubbah, including the dowry, inheritance rights, and the financial provisions for widowhood or divorce. By situating the Jewish marriage contract within the broader context of ancient Near Eastern and Roman law, the author highlights the unique ethical and legal contributions of the rabbinic system.
