כתובה מְֿנֻקֶּדֶת שנכתבה על ידי ר וייס ויונה רֶנק, בעזרת אביהם הרב רפאל פרץ בן שמחה וחנה רנק וכמה ממורי יונה ור; כתובה זו מופיעה חסרת הסברים ואחר כך מלאת הסברים.
The vocalized Ketubbah written by Raysh Weiss and Jonah Rank, with the help of their father Rabbi Perry Raphael Rank and several teachers of Jonah’s and Raysh’s; this Ketubbah appears first without directions, and then with directions.
A critical commentary (in footnotes) on a “traditional,” widespread Ashkenazic Ketubbah.
הפירושים נכתבו על ידי יונה, ומאושרים (ולפעמים מתוקנים) על ידי ר. כל שגיאה ושגיאה נכתבה על ידי יונה.
All notes have been written by Jonah, but approved (and often improved) by Raysh. All mistakes by Jonah.
On [day of the week] of the [day of the month] of the month of [month] in the year [year], as we count here in [location], behold, the soul of [name of one member of the couple] and the soul of [name of the other member of the couple] wrote one to the other in documents indicating that the entirety of each soul is consecrated one to the other in accordance with the law of Moses and Israel. They both shall serve, cherish, sustain, and support one another, in accordance with the laws of the Jews. Behold, all that which is written above has been accepted upon these two souls in the valid manner of interconnecting souls. All of the above is in proper, good standing.
