Comentario sobre Ketubot 2:7
וְכֵן שְׁנֵי אֲנָשִׁים, זֶה אוֹמֵר כֹּהֵן אָנִי וְזֶה אוֹמֵר כֹּהֵן אָנִי, אֵינָן נֶאֱמָנִין. וּבִזְמַן שֶׁהֵן מְעִידִין זֶה אֶת זֶה, הֲרֵי אֵלּוּ נֶאֱמָנִין:
Del mismo modo, con dos hombres, si uno dijo: Soy un Cohein, y el otro dijo: Soy un Cohein, no se cree que [se les dé terumah]. Y cuando testifican el uno por el otro, [cada uno diciendo: mi amigo y yo somos Cohanim], se les cree.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot
And likewise two men, [if] one says, “I am a priest”, and the other says, “I am a priest”, they are not believed. When each man claims to be a priest, neither is believed and neither will receive terumah. Just as in yesterday’s mishnah, where a woman could not testify with regard to her own personal status, so too in today’s mishnah a man cannot testify with regard to his own status.

English Explanation of Mishnah Ketubot
But when they testify about one another, they are believed. However, if both men corroborate the other’s testimony they are believed.
