Commentary for Kiddushin 60:12

ויש אומרים אף להשיטו בנהר מאי טעמא חיותיה הוא

but with respect to his daughter, does it then rest with him?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' One cannot easily obtain a husband for his daughter. How then does Jeremiah say, and give your daughters to husbands?');"><sup>28</sup></span> - This is his meaning: Let her be dowered, clothed and adorned, that men should eagerly desire her.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lit., 'spring upon her'.');"><sup>29</sup></span> 'To teach him a craft.'
