Commentary for Kiddushin 37:1

מי שאני

Now, according to R'Nahman B'Isaac, who maintained: Even on the view of R'Jose son of R'Judah, the original money was given for kiddushin,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' So that when her master designates her, her father is deemed to have received the kiddushin.');"><sup>1</sup></span> how can he explain it? - He explains it as agreeing with R'Eliezer, who held: It is only for servitude after servitude that he may not sell her, but he can sell her to servitude after marriage.

Daf Shevui to Kiddushin

The different forms of betrothal can be different from one another—in one case the father betroths her to someone else, and in another the master betroths her without the father’s participation. But why should there be different forms of marriage? Marriage is simply the coming together of the couple (intercourse).
