Magnificent Marriage Insights — Captivating Torah Essays about Marriage
Finding the right one, standing under the chuppah, and then the years that nobody prepares you for. What is a zivug, how much of it is decided, and what is left for the two people to build?
Fifty-eight essays on marriage and shalom bayis — how a shidduch is put together and how much of it was decided long before, hashgachah in the match, the vort, the veil, the wedding as a matan Torah of its own, the ones who come to the chuppah unseen, and the daily work of two people becoming one.
Yevamos and Kesubos throughout, with the Chazon Ish, the Baal Shem Tov and the Shulchan Aruch.
A chasunah or sheva berachos gift.
Rabbi Yehoshua Alt has written thirteen seforim in the Insights series, and writes the weekly Fascinating Insights sheet carried on JewishPress.com.
