TO have been worked out in some
societies, it has proved impracti-
cal and harmful in others. The
Bible, which gives only a skele-
ton framework for Jewish law
Ito the naked eye), wisely left
this point to the adaptation of
the particular society. The Bible
itself showed no particular favor
for it. The rabbis in the Talmud
discouraged it. It was not until
the tenth century of the common
era that it was felt necessary to
issue a formal decree forbidding
it. In the face of all this, the
Jewish family and the Jewish
concept of marriage remain I'M
paralleled in approaching the
goal of ideal human relations.
