[If] one was married to two wives, and he died, the first one takes precedence over the second one, and the first one’s heirs take precedence over the second one’s heirs.  [If] he married the first one, and she died; and he married a second one, and he died, the second one and her heirs take precedence over the first one’s heirs.

[If] one was married to two wives, and they died, and subsequently, he died, and the orphans claim their mother’s kesubah, but there is only [enough for] the two kesubos, they share equally.  [If] there was a surplus of a dinar, these take their moth-er’s kesubah, and those take their mother’s kesubah. If the orphans said, “We evaluate our father’s property at a dinar more,” in order that they should take their mother’s kesubah, we do not heed them; rather, we appraise the property in court.

[If] there were prospective assets, it is not like that in possession. R’ Shimon says: Even if there are chattels, it is naught, unless there is real property exceeding the two kesubos [by] a dinar.

[If] one was married to three wives, and he died, [if] this one’s kesubah was a hundred [zuz], this one’s was two hundred, and this one’s was three hundred, and there is only a hundred, they share equally.  [If] there was two hundred, the one [with the kesubah] of a hundred takes fifty [zuz]; the one [with the kesubah] of two hundred and the one [with the kesubah] of three hundred [take] three gold dinars each.  [If] there was three hundred, the one [with the kesubah] of a hundred takes fifty, the one [with the kesubah] of two hundred [takes] a hundred, and the one [with the kesubah] of three hundred [takes] six gold dinars.  Likewise, if three deposited [money] into a fund, and they had a loss or profit, they share in this manner.
