신명기 22:16의 주석

ואמר אבי הנערה AND THE DAMSEL’S FATHER SHALL SAY [UNTO THE ELDERS] — although both parents appear before them, yet the father alone shall speak — this teaches that a woman is not allowed to speak in the presence of her husband (if he, too, is concerned in the matter) (Sifrei Devarim 235:10).

This teaches that a woman is not permitted, etc. Because the woman is also standing in the court as it is written, “The girl’s father and mother will take, etc.” Yet afterwards it is written, “The girl’s father should assert, etc.,” and it is not written, “The girl’s mother should assert.” Therefore, “This teaches, etc.” (In the name of Maharitz). Re”m explains that [this teaching is derived because] otherwise Scripture should have said, “The girl should assert to the elders, ‘Look! This man has promulgated libelous words against me, etc.,” being that she is the defendant.
