Gemara:
The first sugya in Masechet Ktuvot addresses the q' what if the 12 month period of Erusin ends on a Sunday? Must the Arus pay Mezonot? The Misna requires that he postpone the wedding til Weds. But why not marry on Sunday? At what moment must the ארוס pay מזונות? What if the delay is a result of illness and no fault of the Arus? What if the Arus is prepared for the wedding, but the kalla is not? This latter situation breaks down to a # of scenarios. She was ill or became a Niddah. We will analyze the concept of הגיע זמן. Is the requirement of Mezonot a קנס (penalty) imposed upon the Arus for delaying the wedding? Or shall we assume that the חיוב מזונות is inherent in the Ishus relationship which reaches its fruition after 12 months?
