Tosefta Ketubot
The [legal] power of the husband is greater than the power of the father [in some respects] and the power of the father is greater than the power of the husband [in other respects]. The power of the husband is greater—for the husband can eat the fruit (i.e. can use the interest from her property) in her lifetime—which is not true for the father. The power of the father is stronger—for the husband is obligated in her food, in her redemption, her burial, and, in a place where they practice to do the funeral procession, to do the procession—which is not true for the father.
