This book aims to portray the spiritual pattern of Jewish marriage as it unfolded through the ages in many lands. The editors have culled from the rich storehouse of Jewish literature a choice selection of quotations, essays, laws, stories, poems, songs, and folk proverbs on the theme of marriage. Descriptions of the ceremony, excerpts from the Bible, Talmud, Midrash, and medieval Jewish literature, examples of response, historical and sociological explanations, and stories in a light vein contained in this book make it an interesting as well as useful collection.
