דפוס פראג 432

Teshuvot Maharam · Prague Edition, Chapter 432

‹›
  1. 1

    תלב. ומה שנוהגין לחזור ולקדש מי שקידש ע"י שליח נ"ל משום דמצוה בו יותר מבשלוחו מיהו רוב העולם אין נוהגין כן.

    The reason, for the custom to betroth again a wife whom one has betrothed through a messenger, is that a personal betrothal is the greater Mitzvah. However, the majority of the Jews do not follow this practice.
