Nedarim 68

NEDARIM 68 (25 Elul) - dedicated by Mrs. G. Turkel (Rabbi Kornfeld's grandmother), an exceptional woman with an iron will, who loved and respected the study of Torah. Today is the Shloshim following her passing. Tehei Nafshah Tzerurah bi'Tzror ha'Chaim.

1) THE SOURCE THAT THEY ANNUL TOGETHER

(a) (Beraisa - Tana d'Vei R. Yishmael): "Between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter" - this teaches that both must annul the vow.
(b) Question: What does he learn from "If she will be to a man"?
(c) Answer: He learns Rava's other law (equating vows before the 1st marriage to vows before the 2nd marriage).
(d) Question: (Rava learned joint annulment from "If she will be to a man" - what does Rava learn from the verse Tana d'Vei R. Yishmael expounded ("Between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter")?
(e) Answer: To teach that a husband annuls vows that affect relations with his wife.
2) ANNULMENT OF 1 PARTNER
(a) Question: When an engaged husband annuls alone, does he cut half the vow (but the remainder is a full-strength vow); or, does he weaken the vow?
1. For example - she vowed from 2 olives, her husband annulled the vow, and she ate the olives.
i. If he cuts the vow (and does not weaken it), she is lashed;
ii. If he weakens it, she is not lashed.
(b) Answer (Beraisa): (The answer is from the end of the Beraisa, 69A) When do we say, that if the husband dies, the father receives authority to annul her vow? When the husband died without hearing the vow, or after he annulled it, or if he died on the day he heard it, before he acted on it;
68b---------------------------------------68b

(c) But if the husband affirmed the vow, or was silent on the day he heard it and died on a later day, the father cannot annul it.
(d) If the father heard her vow and annulled it and died before the husband heard it, authority to annul her vow does not pass to the husband.
(e) If the husband heard her vow and annulled it and died before the father heard it, authority to annul her vow passes to the father.
(f) If the husband heard her vow and annulled it and the father died before hearing it, the husband cannot annul it, since he can only annul in partnership.
