    Marriage and Relationships

    Home, Man, and Woman

    A relationship based upon affection alone, without serious dedication to family values, to continuity, lacks true stability. Such a bond will eventually collapse. But without personal attachment and affection the home and family could not be built.

    Chayei Sara

    "...But He Could Not Become Warm."

    Haftara of Chayei Sara

    We find that it was precisely the attempt to cause David to sin which had a part in causing him to become reawakened and rejuvenated; in David's choosing Shelomo to succeed him as king there is a dimension of rectification of his transgression.
