Ketubot 36: The Spectrum of Violation
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
A series of cases where divorce or annulment is taking place - when does the wife receive the penalties, for example, if she's been a victim of rape or seduction - especially if she's only betrothed, and presumed to be a virgin. What about a minor? What about an aylonit? What if she's simply older and her hyman is no longer "intact" (without sexual encounter)? What about a blind woman? Also, a new mishnah, specifically on the women who would not have a fine be laid to their fathers in the event of their being raped. What about molestation that isn't full rape? It's still a violation, but is it always going to have the worst-case-scenario consequences?
