The appraised [property] of orphans [is pro-claimed for sale for] thirty days, and the appraised [property] of the Temple [for] sixty days; and they proclaim [it for sale] in the morning and in the evening. [If] one consecrated his property, and he was liable for his wife’s kesubah, R’ Eliezer says: When he divorces her, he must vow not to derive any benefit from her. R’ Yehoshua says: He need not [vow]. In a similar vein, Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel said: Also, [if there is] a guarantor to a woman’s kesubah, and her husband was divorcing her, he must vow not to derive any benefit from her, lest he conspire against this one’s property and take back his wife.

[If] one consecrated his property, and he was liable for [his] wife’s kesubah or [a debt to] a creditor, the wife cannot collect her kesubah from Temple property, nor can the creditor collect his debt [from it]. Rather, the one who redeems it, redeems it on the condition of giving the wife her kesubah or the creditor his debt. [If] one consecrated [property worth] ninety manehs, and his debt was one hundred manehs, he adds another dinar and he redeems this property with it, on the condition of giving the wife her kesubah or the creditor his debt.

Although they said: We secure payment from those obligated for erech-vows, we allow him food [for] thirty days, clothing [for] twelve months, a bed [made up] with bedding, shoes, and tefillin; for himself, but not for his wife or for his children. If he was a craftsman, we allow him two tools of each kind: a carpenter is given two planes and two saws. R’ Eliezer says: If he was a plowman, they give him his yoke of oxen; a donkey driver, they give him his donkey.

[If] he had many of one kind and few of another kind, we do not tell him to sell some of the many and to buy for himself some of the few; rather, we give him two kinds of the many and whatever he has of the few. [If] one consecrates his property, they assess for him his tefillin.

Whether one consecrates his property, or one vows his own erech — he has nothing of his wife’s clothing, or of his children’s clothing, or of the dyed [garments] that he dyed for them, or of the new shoes that he bought for them. Although they said: Slaves are sold with their garments to enhance their value, for if clothing is purchased for him for thirty dinars, his value increases a maneh; and so it is with a cow, if they hold it until the market day, its value increases; and so it is with a pearl, if they bring it up to the large city, its value increases — the Temple treasury has only its place and its time.
