מיתיבי וחכמים אומרים תבעו ממון בשלשה תבעו נפשות בעשרים ושלשה בשלמא (לרבא) תבעו ממון תחלה בשלשה תבעו נפשות תחלה אפילו ממון בעשרים ושלשה אלא לעולא קשיא

Sanh. I. ');"><sup>1</sup></span> This may be correct according to Raba,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' According to whom even the Rabbis agree that the husband's allegation alone can involve only a monetary claim. ');"><sup>2</sup></span>
