What is a ketubah? Who uses a ketubah? and Why? The author takes a historical approach of the ketubah from a biblical perspective providing archaeological evidence of its use. This textbook was the culmination of research presented in a master's thesis. The ketubah is no longer singularly a Jewish contract. It is being adopted by parties outside of the Jewish religion. The author explores the developing legal aspect of such actions. Specifically, is the ketubah covenantal or contractual?This book includes copies of ketubot both ancient and modern.
