17 Ketubot 6/5-7

(ה) הַמַּשִּׂיא אֶת בִּתּוֹ סְתָם, לֹא יִפְחֹת לָהּ מֵחֲמִשִּׁים זוּז. פָּסַק לְהַכְנִיסָהּ עֲרֻמָּה, לֹא יֹאמַר הַבַּעַל כְּשֶׁאַכְנִיסָהּ לְבֵיתִי אֲכַסֶּנָּה בִכְסוּתִי, אֶלָּא מְכַסָּהּ וְעוֹדָהּ בְּבֵית אָבִיהָ. וְכֵן הַמַּשִּׂיא אֶת הַיְתוֹמָה, לֹא יִפְחֹת לָהּ מֵחֲמִשִּׁים זוּז. אִם יֵשׁ בַּכִּיס, מְפַרְנְסִין אוֹתָהּ לְפִי כְבוֹדָהּ:

(ו) יְתוֹמָה שֶׁהִשִּׂיאַתָּה אִמָּהּ אוֹ אַחֶיהָ מִדַּעְתָּהּ, וְכָתְבוּ לָהּ בְּמֵאָה אוֹ בַחֲמִשִּׁים זוּז, יְכוֹלָה הִיא מִשֶּׁתַּגְדִּיל לְהוֹצִיא מִיָּדָן מַה שֶּׁרָאוּי לְהִנָּתֵן לָהּ. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, אִם הִשִּׂיא אֶת הַבַּת הָרִאשׁוֹנָה, יִנָּתֵן לַשְּׁנִיָּה כְדֶרֶךְ שֶׁנָּתַן לָרִאשׁוֹנָה. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, פְּעָמִים שֶׁאָדָם עָנִי וְהֶעֱשִׁיר אוֹ עָשִׁיר וְהֶעֱנִי, אֶלָּא שָׁמִין אֶת הַנְּכָסִים וְנוֹתְנִין לָהּ:

(ז) הַמַּשְׁלִישׁ מָעוֹת לְבִתּוֹ, וְהִיא אוֹמֶרֶת נֶאֱמָן בַּעְלִי עָלָי, יַעֲשֶׂה הַשָּׁלִישׁ מַה שֶׁהֻשְׁלַשׁ בְּיָדוֹ, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, וְכִי אֵינָהּ אֶלָּא שָׂדֶה וְהִיא רוֹצָה לְמָכְרָהּ, הֲרֵי הִיא מְכוּרָה מֵעַכְשָׁיו. בַּמֶּה דְבָרִים אֲמוּרִים, בִּגְדוֹלָה. אֲבָל בִּקְטַנָּה, אֵין מַעֲשֵׂה קְטַנָּה כְלוּם:

(5) One who marries off his daughter plainly [without any stipulation as to dowry] may not give her less than fifty zuz. If [the father] stipulated that [the husband] is to marry her without clothing [as part of her dowry], the husband may not say, "When I bring her into my house I will cover her with my garments." Rather, he must clothe her while she is still in her father's house. Similarly, one who marries off an orphan may not give her less than fifty zuz. And if there is [sufficient means] in the [charity] box [from which she is being provided for], we provide her [with an outfit] in accordance with her honor.

(6) [With regard to] an orphan who was married off by her mother or her brothers with her consent, and they had written [i.e, assigned a dowry] for her a hundred or fifty zuz, when she comes of age she may recover from them whatever is her due. Rabbi Yehudah says, "If [the father] had married off the first daughter, [the dowry should be] given to the second [daughter] in the same manner as he had given to the first." The Sages say, "Sometimes a man was poor and became rich, or was rich and became poor; rather, we appraise the property [the father left], and we give her [her fair share].

(7) If a person entrusts another with money for [to purchase a field or a dowry for] his daughter, and she says, "I trust my [future] husband, [so give me the money]," the trustee must [nevertheless] act in accordance with [set of the instructions] that was entrusted to him. These are the words of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi Yossi says, "And if [what he gives her now] is merely a field which she wants to sell, it is [as though] it is already sold." With regard to what were these words stated? With regard to an adult woman; but with regard to a minor, the actions of a minor are meaningless.
