The Mishna on our daf teaches us that there are three gittin that are invalid but the children resulting from a subsequent marriage are not classified as mamzerim. These three gittin are:
· a get written in the husband's handwriting with no witness signatures.
· a get with witnesses but no date.
· a get with a date but only one witness.
The rabbis consider possible cases that would explain why children in these circumstances would not be considered mamzerim. They consider when a wife must leave her second husband and when she would be allowed to stay.
We explore the loads behind the famous Tzfat get of 2014 with the help of Rabbi Jachter of Kol Torah.
