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.
