here's a fascinating thing
which marriage
is first explored entire
explored at length the story told in
great detail it's not adam and chava
it's not
his wife it's not of roman sorrow
it's yitzhak rifka
the torah devotes 67
unheard of
to the story of how the shidduch and
came about the marriage of yitzhak rifka
who would build of course claudius
if i would tell you there are 67 verses
to discuss this marriage what would you
expect
what do they discuss maybe they discuss
the feast the meal
you open up and you see
66 sukim
are about the preparations for the
shidduch
the actual marriage the actual
relationship is one passage at the end
of
he married rifka she became his wife he
loved her and he was comforted for his
mother
that's the last
possible what about 66 looking before
that
ah that's all about the preparations
avraham had to summon his servant
and explain to him where to go and how
to go and what to do and what not to do
and then his servant took 10 camels and
he went with them
with all of the belongings and he
finally arrived and now he has to start
searching for the right girl and he
stands at the well and he makes a
condition and he makes a prayer and then
he finds her now he comes to her house
now hey starts negotiations with
absolutely loving and back and forth
back and forth and he tells the whole
story and first they agree and then they
procrastinate and then they hesitate and
then they have to ask her and after 66
verses finally
he brings rifka to yitzchak and the
that the seal and the marriage happens
and i ask you a question does this make
sense
one verse for the wedding one verse for
the marriage one verse for the whole
relationship and 66 persons for the
handling for the wheeling and dealing
for the negotiations
oh the toyota's conveying uh to us a big
lesson
and that is this is the marriage with
bill which built the jewish people
yes the objective is for the marriage to
happen but don't underestimate the value
of the time
and the effort and the energy and the
resources and the prayers and the
davening that you put in to make it
happen
don't dismiss the preparation and get
frustrated by it
understand that the first great marriage
which built the entire nation of israel
yitzhak
it's the preparations
that were so indispensable
that mattered so much and the
preparations are not always easy

and a lot of handling and a lot of
negotiating and a lot a lot of
praying
