Ketubot 29: If a Kohen Gadol Rapes a Widow, Can They Marry?

Talking Talmud - Podcast készítő Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

Chapter 3! A situation of rape... Which was treated differently back in the day. In this mishnah, the penalty that a man who rapes a girl (whose presumptive status is that she's a virgin) needs to pay to her father. Plus, the penalty for engaging in an arayot relationship.

What about when there are kohanim involved? What if a widow was raped by the kohen gadol?
