The Ketubah in Our Time
Question
Hello Rabbi,
Is the ketubah nowadays still something necessary? Most women are no longer financially dependent on their husbands, so isn’t there room to change this?
Answer
It is בהחלט possible that there is room for that, but today we do not have an institution that can do so.
