Did He Die ?

האפי פורעם

Daf Hayomi Kidushin 13 b

Meinyonei D'Yoma, Purim

וקונה את עצמה בגט ובמיתת הבעל

The Chida (Birkei Yosef E.H.17) has a Shaila if the

wife of R.Zaira  (Rabbah Shechted him on Purim

and the following day Rabbah davened and brought

him back to life).required a new Kidushin from him.

Do we say,

a) since she is קונה את עצמה  with מיתת הבעל

therfore the original Kidushin has expired. The same

way as מחזיר את גרושתו needs a new Kidushin so too 

would R.Zaira's wife need a new Kidushin.

or

b) The din of  קונה את עצמה  with מיתת הבעל

is only when there is a final death. If the husband

is brought back to life (by a Nes) that type of a death 

doesn't cancel  the original Kidushin and there is no 

need for a new Kidushin.
