(Mishnah): If a man married two women and they died, and then he died, and the orphans demand the Kesuvah (dowry) of their mothers, and there is enough for the two Kesuvos, [the heirs] divide [the estate] equally;

If there is a Dinar more than the Kesuvos, the sons of each mother receive their mother's Kesuvah.

If orphans (of one mother) request to accept property at an inflated price, in order that the estate will be considered to have an extra Dinar, we do not accede. Rather, Beis Din evaluates the property.

(Gemara): [Our Mishnah] teaches like R. Imi said, [they enacted Kesuvas Benin Dichrin] so a person will be wont to give [a dowry] generously to his daughter [without fear lest the husband's sons from other women inherit most of it].

Question: If so, it should apply even if there is not an extra Dinar!

Answer (R. Avun): When you can fulfill [Chachamim's] words and fulfill Torah law (inheritance), you fulfill their words and fulfill Torah law. When you cannot fulfill their words and fulfill Torah law, you nullify their words and fulfill Torah law.

(R. Yudah bar Pazi citing R. Yosi ben Chaninah): If one of the brothers died, all of [his paternal brothers] divide [his property] equally.

(R. Mana): This is needed when they did not yet divide. Do not say that it is as if he is not here, and his [maternal] brothers inherit him.

If there was a Bechor, you say that the Bechor receives a double portion.

Question: What does it mean 'he receives a double portion' - is it a double portion in his group (his maternal brothers), or a double portion among all the brothers?

(R. Hoshayah's Beraisa): If there were two sets of daughters, all divide equally. (Kesuvas Benin Dichrin was enacted only for sons.)

If there was a Bechor, you say that the Bechor receives a double portion.

Question: What does it mean 'he receives a double portion' - is it a double portion in his group (his maternal brothers), or a double portion in all the Kesuvos?

Question: When do we estimate [the estate, to determine whether or not there is an extra Dinar - at the time of death, or at the end, i.e. when they come to divide]?

Answer #1 (Talmidim of R. Mana): It is at the end.

Objection (R. Yosi bei R. Bun): Don't you say in the name of your Rebbi 'this is needed when they did not yet divide'? (We view it as if he received his share!)

Answer #2: Rather, it is from the first time (of death).
