PARSHA QUESTION OF THE WEEK
MARRIAGE & FAMILY
The daughter of a Kohein who marries a non-Kohein may no longer eat of the holy tithes
(Terumas Hakodoshim). Should the daughter of a Kohein become a widow or a divorcee
and not have children, she shall then return to her father's house as in her youth, and
she may eat from her father's (holy) bread.... (Vayikra 22:13-14)
The laws allowing the Kohein's daughters to partake of the holy gifts reserved
for the Kohein are suspended when these daughters "leave their father's house", i.e.
when they marry. Conversely, the sons of the Kohein continue on as Kohanim them-
selves, never severing their link with their father's house.
This law seems to suggest that marriage absorbs the woman within the house
of the man. Thus the man remains within his ancestral home, while the woman must
leave hers. Based upon this law, Tashbatz (1361-1444), a medieval Spanish Rabbi, ruled
that a woman adopts her husband's Minhagim (customs) upon marriage. Similarly the
Torah's two terms for a household are "Mishpacha" (family) and "Beis Av" (father's
house). Marriage is a merger of two into one - "they shall become as one flesh" - and
thus they must blend into one home, either his or hers. From what we see here, it is his
house that dominates. [Thus the custom - virtually universal until recently - that the
wife and children adopt the husband's surname.]
Yet when we examine the verse that originally describes marriage (Bereishis
2:24), we seem to learn otherwise. "Thus the man shall leave his father and mother
and adhere to his wife and they shall become as one flesh." Here it seems that the hus-
band leaves his family to join the woman. Isn't this contradictory?
HALACHA OF THE WEEK: A FEATURE OF THE BJSZ DAILY HALACHA
OVERFILLING THE CUP OF HAVDALAH
There is a custom cited by the Rema to spill the wine of Havdalah, as a house
where the wine is freely spilled like water is clearly blessed. In practice, there is some
difference of custom on this matter. There are those who generously overfill the cup to
generate this sign of blessing, while others are careful not to spill out anything to avoid
waste. Others suggest that a proper Halachic compromise is to fill it all way to the top
to the point where inevitably some will spill over as the cup is handled. Additionally, the
Rema writes that as a sign of love for the wine of the Mitzvah it is customary to douse
the candle with the spilled wine rather than to blow the candle out, and to then dip
fingers in the wine and “rinse” the eyes with that wine. (See OC 296:1)
We welcome our members, their families and guests who have joined us for Shabbos!

Dear Friends:
I hope this note finds you well.
I will be in Eretz Yisrael through Tuesday, May 16. The purpose of my trip is to participate
in my father's Hakamas Matzeivah and a memorial gathering in my parents' shul,
Chovevei Tzion. The timing of these events was chosen to coincide with a family simcha,
BH, the Lag B'Omer wedding of one of my parents' grandsons.
I am sorry to have to be away again, and I am grateful to Rabbi Rose for covering for me
during my absence. He can be reached at 410-499-8066, or at [email protected]. I am
grateful as well to Rabbi Yankel Herskovitz and Rabbi Duvi Rubin for giving the Amud
Yomi shiur, to Rabbi Shraga Goldenhersh for giving the Daf Yomi shiur and to Rabbi Nate
Miller for teaching between Mincha and Maariv .
This Shabbos, many shuls across the country - in conjunction with the OU - are dedicating
this week as "Shabbat Shidduchim", to address how we can do more and better for the
singles in our community. This is a welcome initiative, and one that I would have wanted
to participate in if not for my absence this week. I hope our shul will dedicate a Shabbos
to this topic in the coming months.
I look forward to seeing you soon. May we all merit to celebrate joyous occasions, in good
health.
Thank you for your friendship.
