STEP #4: THE BETROTHAL CONTRACT IS WRITTEN

When the bride and groom are betrothed to each other, a written contract is drawn up known as a ketubah in Hebrew. The betrothal contract is called a shitre erusin in Hebrew.

The ketubah is the marriage contract that states the bride price, the promises of the groom, and the rights of the bride. The groom promises to work for his bride, to honor, support, and maintain her truth, and to provide food, clothing, and the necessities of life.
