QUESTION: Why is it custom
.,v at Jewish weddings for the
room not to see the bride before
;he ceremony? Up. T" Philadel-
phia.)
ANSWER: This custom gener-
sIlv has a sound psychological
reason. Keeping the couple apart
envelopes the marriage with a
certain sanctity, and imbues the
couple with a sense of longing
for each other. Some sources
claim that keeping the bride
away and yelling her gives her
an air of dignity and aspiration.
There is a most interesting rea-
son offered by the commentaries
which traces this custom all the
way back to the original bride
and groom, Adam and Eve. Ac-
cording to the Midrash, when Eve
was first presented to Adam, he
became upset and drove her
away from him. 1t was then that
the Biblical incident took place,
wherein the Lord made a deep
sleep overcome Adam and Great

QUESTION: What does the
term "Parve" mean?
ANSWER: Since it is forbidden
to mix meat and dairy foods or
utensils, most foods or utensils
are known as either "Milchig,"
which means dairy, or "Fleis-
hig,"' which means meat" New
utensils which have not yet been
used for either, or foods which
are vegetable and therefore not
categorical as either meat or
dairy foods, are called "Parve,"
or neutral.
