A BIT MORE

1. If her husband provided her with two cups of wine when he was with her, she receives one cup when her husband is away. If her husband provided her with one cup of wine when he was with her, she does not receive any wine at all when her husband is away.
 
2. Tana Kama: When they are not together, the husband is not obligated to provide them for her. Rebbi Nasan: The husband must provide them for her all of the time, because he might return at Bein ha'Shemashos and forget to bring the pillow and cover for her.
 
3. When a widow is provided with clothing by the heirs of her husband, the clothing is given to the heirs when it wears out.
 
4. Wine is good for her milk.
 
5. Rebbi Yehudah ben Beseirah maintains that if a concealed part of her body was injured, her husband receives one-third. If an exposed part of her body was injured, he receives two-thirds. The portion that is given to the wife must be used to buy land, and the husband has the right to the produce of that land.
 
6. The father does not have the right to eat the produce of land that his daughter inherited from her mother.

BRIEF INSIGHT

ABAYE DID NOT DRINK WINE
 
Rava told Chomah, the wife of Abaye, that he knows that Abaye did not drink wine. The Tosfos ha'Rosh says that Abaye was very poor and had no money for wine. However, the Ya'avetz says that the Gemara in Shabbos says that Abaye starved himself and did not partake from the pleasures of this world. Chomah's claim that she was provided with wine was after Abaye became weak and needed the wine for health reasons.

QUICK HALACHAH

THE SUPPORT OF YOUNG CHILDREN
 
A father is obligated to support his children until they are six years old. The Chachamim decreed that he must support them after that age until they grow up. If he refuses, the Beis Din applies pressure on him in order to convince him to support them, but the Beis Din does not force him. If the father is wealthy, Beis Din does force him to support his children, just as the Beis Din forces him to give Tzedakah. (Shulchan Aruch EH 71:1)
