Is marriage really necessary, if we can reap its benefits without entering into a life-long commitment? What is the true definition of a "soulmate," and how does this impact our relationship? This fascinating lesson uncovers the mystical root of love and marriage according to Jewish thought. Lesson 2 Behind Closed Doors Judaism’s View of Intimacy Is G-d comfortable in the bedroom? Is sexual intimacy holy? Profane? Mundane? Holy, but only as a means to procreation? What does Judaism have to say about sexuality and how to enhance the intimacy between husband and wife? This lesson taps into Judaism’s vast reservoir of wisdom, both practical and kabbalistic, on a topic your Hebrew school teacher likely never broached. Lesson 3 Beloved Friends Synergizing and Sanctifying Love and Desire We all start out starry-eyed, but is "passionate marriage" realistic in the long-term? How can one relationship give us the comforting security we crave from commitment as well as the spark of novelty and mystique that fuels desire? The mitzvah of taharat hamishpachah, or "family purity," has long been shrouded in mystery and misconception. Yet these laws may just hold the secret to synchronizing--and sanctifying--these paradoxical aspects of marriage, while also revealing an unparalleled connection between us and G-d. Lesson 4 Becoming a Better Half Jewish Insights into Preserving Marital Harmony Ironically, it is often only once we are married that we come face to face with our real selves, for better or for worse. Yet, the very essence of being human is having the ability to rise above--no matter the situation. When negative emotions escalate in the heat of the moment, how can we control our reaction? Jewish text and tradition is rich with effective tools, tips, and meditations to let our "humanness" shine and turn the rough patches of our marriage into catalysts for becoming a better half.
