אֵלּוּ דְבָרִים שֶׁחָזְרוּ בֵית הִלֵּל לְהוֹרוֹת כְּדִבְרֵי בֵית שַׁמַּאי:
הָאִשָּׁה שֶׁבָּאָה מִמְּדִינַת הַיָּם וְאָמְרָה: ,,מֵת בַּעְלִי” תִּנָּשֵׂא; ,,מֵת בַּעְלִי” תִּתְיַבֵּם. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים, לֹא שָׁמַעְנוּ אֶלָּא בְּבָאָה מִן הַקָּצִיר בִּלְבָד. אָמְרוּ לָהֶם בֵּית שַׁמַּאי: אַחַת הַבָּאָה מִן הַקָּצִיר וְאַחַת הַבָּאָה מִן הַזֵּיתִים וְאַחַת הַבָּאָה מִמְּדִינַת הַיָּם; לֹא דִבְּרוּ בַקָּצִיר אֶלָּא בַהֹוֶה. חָזְרוּ בֵית הִלֵּל לְהוֹרוֹת כְּבֵית שַׁמַּאי.
בֵּית שַׁמַּאי אוֹמְרִים: תִּנָּשֵׂא וְתִטֹּל כְּתֻבָּתָהּ. וּבֵית הִלֵּל אוֹמְרִים: תִּנָּשֵׂא וְלֹא תִטֹּל כְּתֻבָּתָהּ. אָמְרוּ לָהֶם בֵּית שַׁמַּאי: הִתַּרְתֶּם אֶת הָעֶרְוָה הַחֲמוּרָה, לֹא תַתִּירוּ אֶת הַמָּמוֹן הַקַּל? אָמְרוּ לָהֶם בֵּית הִלֵּל: מָצִינוּ שֶׁאֵין הָאַחִים נִכְנָסִין לְנַחֲלָה עַל פִּיהָ. אָמְרוּ לָהֶם בֵּית שַׁמַּאי: וַהֲלֹא מִסֵּפֶר כְּתֻבָּתָהּ נִלְמֹד; שֶׁהוּא כוֹתֵב לָהּ שֶׁ,,אִם תִּנָּשְׂאִי לְאַחֵר, תִּטְּלִי מַה שֶּׁכָּתוּב לִיךְ.” חָזְרוּ בֵית הִלֵּל לְהוֹרוֹת כְּדִבְרֵי בֵית שַׁמַּאי.
These are the matters about which Beis Hillel reversed themselves to [thenceforth] rule in accordance with the view of Beis Shammai.
If a woman came from overseas and she said, “My husband died [overseas],” she may marry; “My hus-band died [overseas],” she may be taken in yibum. But Beis Hillel say: We have not heard [this tradition] ex-cept in a case where she comes from the grain harvest. Beis Shammai said to them: It is the same whether she comes from the harvest and it is the same whether she comes from the [harvest of] olives and it is the same whether she comes from overseas; [the Rabbis] spoke in [terms of] the harvest only [because that was the incident] as it happened. [And subsequently] Beis Hillel reversed [them-selves] to [thenceforth] rule in accordance with Beis Shammai.
Beis Shammai say: She may remarry and col-lect her kesubah. But Beis Hillel say: She may remarry but she does not col-lect her kesubah. Beis Shammai said to them: [If] you have permitted the grave [matter of] ervah, shall you not [then certainly] permit the less grave [matter of] money? Beis Hillel said to them: We find that the brothers do not enter into [possession of] the estate on [the basis of] her testimony. Beis Shammai said to them: But we can learn [this ruling] from her kesubah docu-ment; for he writes to her that “If you marry another, you will take what is written to you.” [And] Beis Hillel reversed [them-selves] to [thenceforth] rule in accordance with the opinion of Beis Shammai.
