  1. The laws of a Yefas Toar:
  • When you go to war against your enemies and Hashem gives them into your hands and you capture a captive, the following laws are to be followed:
  • Shave head, grow hair, and mourn: If you see a beautiful woman during war that you wish to take as a wife, you are to bring her into your home and shave her head and have her grow her nails. She is to remove her [beautiful] clothing that she wore when taken captive. She is to sit in your home and mourn her parents for a month.
  • Afterwards, you may be intimate with her and take her as a wife. If, however, you do not desire her, then she is to be sent out free. She may not be sold, or work, as a slave.
  1. Inheritance of a Bechor-The son of a beloved wife versus the son of a hated wife:
  • If a man has two wives, one loved and the second hated, and each begot him a son, the eldest son, the Bechor, is to receive a double portion of the inheritance. One may not remove the double portion from the Bechor son born to the hated wife, and instead grant it to the younger son born to the beloved wife.
  • The Bechor is to receive a double portion of all one’s assets, as he is the first of his father’s strength and that is his right as firstborn son.
  1. Ben Sorer Umorer-The rebellious son:
  • If a man has a son who is rebellious and does not listen to his father or mother despite being disciplined by them, then the son is to be brought by the parents to the city gates, to the city elders. The son is to be stoned by the entire city.
