When a groom and bride come from different social or economic backgrounds, a practical question arises: by which standard must the husband provide for his wife? If she comes from a wealthy family but he is of more modest means, or if he is wealthy and she is from a poor home, the Torah and the Talmud provide clear guidance on how the household should be conducted. Rabbi Lerner delves into Masechet Kesubos to explain the obligations a husband takes upon himself under the chupah. Drawing from the very beginning of the Torah in the Book of Bereshis, we look at the naming of Chava and the deeper meaning behind her being called the mother of all living. This linguistic choice by Adam contains a profound hint regarding the quality of life a woman is entitled to within a Jewish marriage. Is a wife expected to lower her standards to match her husband, or is he required to rise to hers? The answer lies in a beautiful principle that ensures the marital bond is one of elevation rather than hardship. Discover how the sages define the standard of living for a Jewish home and what it means for a woman to marry for life rather than pain.
