Commentary for Ketubot 58:4

ורב פפא מ"ט לא אמר כר"ל ההוא מיבעי ליה לכדאביי דאמר אביי בא עליה ומתה פטור שנאמר (דברים כב, יט) ונתן לאבי הנערה לאבי נערה ולא לאבי מתה

Why does R. Papa not agree with Resh Lakish? That [verse] he requires for [the same teaching] as that of Abaye, for Abaye said: If he had relations with her and she died, he is exempt, for it is said: “And he shall give to the father of the young girl” [this means]: To the father of the young girl, but not to the father of a dead [person].
