Can a wife, who is a minor, become a sotah? Where in the torah, does one learn the din of zachin l'adam shelo bephanav? When does a divorcee not collect her ketuba? Chumash-Pekudei- Hashem took away the beit hamikdash because of our sins, and it is like a mashkon. Why do Litvish yeshivas conclude the third bracha of benching without b'rachamav?
