3) [line 14] CHOLETZES
(a) If a married man dies childless, his widow must undergo Yibum (the
marriage of a dead man's brother with his wife), as it states in Devarim
25:5-10. Chazal learn from the verses that there is a preference for the
oldest brother to perform Yibum.
(b) If the brother chooses not to marry her, he must perform Chalitzah (a
procedure in Beis Din that absolves her of the Mitzvah of Yibum - ibid.). He
appears before a Beis Din of three and states, "I do not want to marry her,"
after which his sister-in-law approaches him before the elders, takes off
his right sandal and spits in front of him. She then declares, "This is what
shall be done to the man who will not build up a family for his brother,"
and she is then free to marry whomever she wants.
4) [line 16] MANEH - one hundred silver Dinars
5) [line 24] CHATZERAH HA'BA'AH L'ACHAR MIKAN
The Torah requires that the Get be given directly into the hands of the
woman (Devarim 24:1). However, a husband who wants to divorce his wife may
place the Get into her Chatzer (courtyard) or property. The Kinyan of
Chatzer is learned from the Kinyan of "her hand" (ibid., Gemara above, Daf
21a). As such, if the husband were to put the Get into a Chatzer that does
not belong to her, she is not divorced, since he has not put it into "her
hand," even if she acquires the Chatzer afterwards. According to Rav, a
woman's Shali'ach l'Kabalah may not accept a Get from the husband's
Shali'ach l'Holachah, because it might be confused with the case of a Get
that is placed in a Chatzer that does not yet belong to the woman.
6) [line 28] LAISHA - kneading [dough]
7) [line 29] LEHEVEI BA'YADCHA - "let it stay in your hand" (i.e. be my
Shali'ach l'Kabalah)
8) [line 30] AVDI BAH UVDA - I would practice in accordance with this
[ruling]
9) [line 32] CHAZRAH SHELICHUS ETZEL HA'BA'AL
In order for a Shelichus to be effectively carried out on behalf of the
sender, the Shali'ach must have the opportunity to return to the sender to
confirm that he carried out his mission, which he cannot do if, before
fulfilling and completing his mission, he became a Shali'ach for someone
else (in this case, the wife).
10) [line 40] CHASPA - a potsherd (i.e. a meaningless Get)
11) [line 42] ANCHUHA B'KISAICHU - place it in your pockets (and do not
deliver it)
12) [line 44] SELUKEI SALIK LEHU - did he want to remove them (the
witnesses, from their mission, once they wrote a Get and gave it to the
Shali'ach)
13) [line 44] L'TIRCHA DIDHU CHAYISH - for their inconvenience he was
concerned (and they are permitted to write another Get to replace the first
one that was
