הַכּוֹתֵב לְאִשְׁתּוֹ: ,,דִּין וּדְבָרִים אֵין לִי בִנְכָסַיִךְ” — הֲרֵי זֶה אוֹכֵל פֵּרוֹת בְּחַיֶּיהָ, וְאִם מֵתָה — יוֹרְשָׁהּ. אִם כֵּן, לָמָּה כָתַב לָהּ: ,,דִּין וּדְבָרִים אֵין לִי בִנְכָסַיִךְ”? שֶׁאִם מָכְרָה וְנָתְנָה — קַיָּם. כָּתַב לָהּ: ,,דִּין וּדְבָרִים אֵין לִי בִנְכָסַיִךְ וּבְפֵרוֹתֵיהֶן” — הֲרֵי זֶה אֵינוֹ אוֹכֵל פֵּרוֹת בְּחַיֶּיהָ; וְאִם מֵתָה — יוֹרְשָׁהּ. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר: לְעוֹלָם אוֹכֵל פֵּרֵי פֵרוֹת עַד שֶׁיִּכְתֹּב לָהּ: ,,דִּין וּדְבָרִים אֵין לִי בִנְכָסַיִךְ וּבְפֵרוֹתֵיהֶן וּבְפֵרֵי פֵרוֹתֵיהֶן עַד עוֹלָם”. כָּתַב לָהּ: ,,דִּין וּדְבָרִים אֵין לִי בִנְכָסַיִךְ, וּבְפֵרוֹתֵיהֶן, וּבְפֵרֵי פֵרוֹתֵיהֶן בְּחַיַּיִךְ וּבְמוֹתֵךְ” — אֵינוֹ אוֹכֵל פֵּרוֹת בְּחַיֶּיהָ, וְאִם מֵתָה — אֵינוֹ יוֹרְשָׁהּ. רַבָּן שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן גַּמְלִיאֵל אוֹמֵר: אִם מֵתָה — יִירָשֶׁנָּה, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהִתְנָה עַל מַה שֶּׁכָּתוּב בַּתּוֹרָה, וְכָל הַמַּתְנֶה עַל מַה שֶּׁכָּתוּב בַּתּוֹרָה — תְּנָאוֹ בָטֵל.
[If] one writes to his wife: “I have neither right nor claim to your property,” he may [nevertheless] enjoy the usufruct during her lifetime. If she dies, he inherits her. If so, why did he write to her: “I have neither right nor claim to your property”? That if she sold [it] or gave [it] away, [the act] is valid. [If] he wrote to her: “I have neither right nor claim to your property or its usufruct,” he does not enjoy the usufruct during her lifetime; but if she dies, he inherits her. R’ Yehudah says: He may always enjoy the usufruct of the produce unless he writes to her: “I have neither right nor claim to your property or its produce or the usufruct of its produce forever.” [If] he wrote to her: “I have neither right nor claim to your property or its produce or the usu-fruct of its produce during your lifetime and after your death,” he does not enjoy the usufruct during her lifetime; and if she dies, he does not inherit her. Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel says: If she dies, he inherits her, because he stipulated on what is written in the Torah, and whoever stipulates on what is written in the Torah, his stipulation is void.
