Ketubot, Daf 75

Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Danny Nevins looks at Masechet Ketubot, Daf 75.

Who is more eager to be married—a man or a woman? In the world of the sages, the answer is obvious. A woman wants to be married, even to a flawed man, since he provides food and fatherhood for her children. What flaws in a woman could invalidate her marriage? Sweat? Bad breath? Big breasts? And who must prove at what point awareness of these flaws became apparent? This and more in our diverse daf gemara.
