26 Ketubot 10/2-4

(ב) מִי שֶׁהָיָה נָשׂוּי שְׁתֵּי נָשִׁים וּמֵתוּ וְאַחַר כָּךְ מֵת הוּא, וִיתוֹמִים מְבַקְשִׁים כְּתֻבַּת אִמָּן וְאֵין שָׁם אֶלָּא שְׁתֵּי כְתֻבּוֹת, חוֹלְקִין בְּשָׁוֶה. הָיָה שָׁם מוֹתַר דִּינָר, אֵלּוּ נוֹטְלִין כְּתֻבַּת אִמָּן וְאֵלּוּ נוֹטְלִין כְּתֻבַּת אִמָּן. אִם אָמְרוּ יְתוֹמִים, אֲנַחְנוּ מַעֲלִים עַל נִכְסֵי אָבִינוּ יָתֵר דִּינָר, כְּדֵי שֶׁיִּטְּלוּ כְתֻבַּת אִמָּן, אֵין שׁוֹמְעִין לָהֶן, אֶלָּא שָׁמִין אֶת הַנְּכָסִים בְּבֵית דִּין:

(ג) הָיוּ שָׁם נְכָסִים בָּרָאוּי, אֵינָן כְּבַמֻּחְזָק. רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר, אֲפִלּוּ יֶשׁ שָׁם נְכָסִים שֶׁאֵין לָהֶם אַחֲרָיוּת, אֵינוֹ כְלוּם, עַד שֶׁיִּהְיוּ שָׁם נְכָסִים שֶׁיֵּשׁ לָהֶן אַחֲרָיוּת יוֹתֵר עַל שְׁתֵּי הַכְּתֻבּוֹת דִּינָר:

(ד) מִי שֶׁהָיָה נָשׂוּי שָׁלשׁ נָשִׁים וּמֵת, כְּתֻבָּתָהּ שֶׁל זוֹ מָנֶה וְשֶׁל זוֹ מָאתַיִם וְשֶׁל זוֹ שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת וְאֵין שָׁם אֶלָּא מָנֶה, חוֹלְקוֹת בְּשָׁוֶה. הָיוּ שָׁם מָאתַיִם, שֶׁל מָנֶה נוֹטֶלֶת חֲמִשִּׁים, שֶׁל מָאתַיִם וְשֶׁל שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת, שְׁלֹשָׁה שְׁלֹשָׁה שֶׁל זָהָב. הָיוּ שָׁם שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת, שֶׁל מָנֶה נוֹטֶלֶת חֲמִשִּׁים, וְשֶׁל מָאתַיִם, מָנֶה, וְשֶׁל שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת, שִׁשָּׁה שֶׁל זָהָב. וְכֵן שְׁלֹשָׁה שֶׁהִטִּילוּ לְכִיס, פִּחֲתוּ אוֹ הוֹתִירוּ, כָּךְ הֵן חוֹלְקִין:

(2) [With regard to] one who was married to two wives, and they [both] died and then he died. And the orphans claim the ketubah [monetary settlement payable to a woman upon divorce or the death of her husband] of their mother, [and] there is no [more property] other than the [amount of the] two ketubot. They divide [the property] equally. If there was surplus [property, even] of a [single] dinar [a specific unit of money], these [orphans] collect the ketubah of their mother and these [other orphans also] collect the ketubah of their mother. If the orphans say, "We will raise [the value of] the property of our father by one dinar [more than the actual value]" so they can collect their mother's ketubah, we do not listen to them; rather, we assess the value in the court.

(3) If there is any property in expectancy, it is not [to be considered] as in [actual] possession. Rabbi Shimon says, "Even if there is non-mortgaged [i.e., movable] property it is not counted [as part of the calculation]; [rather, they split the inheritance equally] until there is mortgaged property exceeding [the amount of] the two ketubot [by at least] a dinar.

(4) [With regard to] one who was married to three wives and he died, [and] the ketubah of this one was a maneh [a specific unit of money equal to one hundred dinar], of this [other] one was two hundred, and of this [third] one was three hundred, and there is only [property worth] one hundred, they divide it equally. If there is [property worth] two hundred, [she] of [the ketubah worth] a maneh receives fifty, while [she] of [the ketubah worth] two hundred and [she] of [the ketubah worth] three hundred each receive three gold [coins worth twenty-five dinar each]. If there is [property worth] three hundred dinar, [she] of a maneh receives fifty, [she] of two hundred [receives] a maneh, and she of three hundred [receives] six gold [coins]. And similarly, three [businessmen] who cast [their money] into [one] pot [i.e., form a partnership, albeit with differing amounts of monetary interest], whether they diminished or increased [their capital], this is how they [too] divide [the funds].
