The ninth volume of this edition, translation, and commentary of
the Jerusalem Talmud contains two Tractates. The first Tractate,
"Documents", treats divorce law and principles of agency when
written documents are required. Collateral topics are the rules for
documents of manumission, those for sealed documents whose contents
may be hidden from witnesses, the rules by which the divorced wife
can collect the moneys due her, the requirement that both divorcer
and divorcee be of sound mind, and the rules of conditional
divorce. The second Tractate, "Nazirites", describes the Nasirean
vow and is the main rabbinic source about the impurity of the dead.
As in all volumes of this edition, a (Sephardic rabbinic) vocalized
text is presented, with parallel texts used as source of variant
readings. A new translation is accompanied by an extensive
commentary explaining the rabbinic background of all statements and
noting Talmudic and related parallels. Attention is drawn to the
extensive Babylonization of the Gittin text compared to genizah
texts.
