Comentario sobre Ketubot 13:3

Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot

בנכסים מועטים – that they lack support for twelve months for males and females. And Maimonides explained that everyone who lack the means to support the boys and girls until the girls become adults is called meager resources/a small amount of property.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot

Introduction The mishnah now begins to list Admon’s rulings. You will note that instead of the “sons of the high priests” or R. Yohanan ben Zakkai, in these mishnayoth R. Gamaliel is the respondent. The first ruling deals with a situation in which a man dies and does not leave an estate large enough for his sons to inherit and his daughters to be maintained. Note that we learned this mishnah already in Bava Batra 9:1.

Bartenura on Mishnah Ketubot

בשביל שאני זכר הפסדתי – meaning to say, with the fact that I am a male and designated/predestined to inherit with a great deal of property, I have lost out when there is a small amount of property/meager resources. But the Halakha is not according to Admon.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot

Admon said seven [rulings]:
If a man dies and leaves sons and daughters, if the estate is large, the sons inherit it and the daughters are maintained [from it].
According to Jewish inheritance law, daughters do not inherit if there are sons. According to a mandatory stipulation written in every ketubah (see Ketuboth 4:11), girls are provided for by the man’s inheritance until they reach a certain age, or are married. If the estate is sufficient, then both of these rules can be fulfilled and there is no problem.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot

And if the estate is small, the daughters are maintained from it, and the sons can go begging. Admon said, “Just because I’m a male I lose out!” Rabban Gamaliel said; I agree with the words of Admon. If, however, there was not enough property, the daughters maintenance takes precedence over the sons inheritance. In such a case the sons will have to beg at people’s doors. In what might seem like an ironic statement to some women reading this mishnah, Admon complains that one should not lose out just because he is male. It is not entirely clear from the mishnah itself what Admon thinks the halakhah should be. In any case, Rabban Gamaliel agrees with Admon. We should note that the accepted halakhah is against Admon.
