[QUOTE="RuthEP, post: 10007324, member: 84346"]Traditional ketubbahs always state the date of the marriage according to the Jewish calendar. Here it's wednesday, Sivan (=name of month) 13th, 5679 (=year), which was June 11th, 1919. Also, traditional ketubbahs are in Aramaic regardless if people speak it or not, and in traditional Judaism (as opposed to reform and other groups) there's isn't a choice in the matter; it's simply the ritualistic language.[/QUOTE]
