Commentary for Gittin 41:7
וצריכא דאי אשמעינן עבד הוה אמינא דוקא עבד אבל חצר ליגזר משום חצרה הבאה לאחר מכאן
Raba also said: If a man wrote a Get for his wife and put it in his courtyard and then wrote a deed assigning her the courtyard, she becomes owner of the courtyard and is divorced by the Get. Both of these statements of Raba are necessary. For if he had confined himself to the first statement, about the slave, I should have said that this applies strictly to a slave, but in the case of a courtyard [I should declare the Get invalid], so as not to set a precedent for a courtyard which comes into her possession subsequently.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If the husband places the Get in the courtyard of a third party which subsequently comes into possession of the wife, the Get is not effective, v. infra 24a and 63b.
