Judaism Recommends Early Marriage

should parents who have means offer some OF 1t to
their children gift loan for the first five years
of their married fe in order to bridge the difference
between the incpient earning power and the actual
requirements of simple life Otherwise the boy of 25

prenuptia adventures and endanger if not the health
of wife and unborn child surely the level of his
ried life.
But the community too has part to play in
the solution of this problem Not all young people have
been wise" in the selection of their parents Some will
be unable to provide them in the first years of their
married lives with the differenal between what they
earn and what they need Again, because of this many
men wait too long before they offer their hand and
heart to young woman; the result is a miSalliance
between an elderly bachelor and young girl which too
often spells broken homes
In ancient Israel we had an institution that, in
manv Jewish communities, has persisted to days.
Its purpose was the lowering of poor brides submit
as translation into modern life community provision
of loan or gift to young couples, that would enable
them to seek fulfillment and stability at an earlier
period.
It NAV be too late for young couple now anxious
for marriage and unprovded with means, to solve their
own problem satisfactorily But in order to help ease
the strain of their child at the time of his or her
PHYSICAL mental but not economic maturity, they
should on the day of their own marriage take out
an insurance policy to be paid out to their own child in
five annual inStalmentS at time when 1t Will be ready

euuanimity. An insurance payable over period OF
twenty years and taken at the commencement OF ones

the parents and will prove more beneficial to their
children than anything else they could do later Tor

of financial comfort for the early years of their married

luxury the husband develops his economic prowess

cruel dilemma upon the young man:
From the age of 20 to 25 he may sublimate his
creative urges by writing thesis, by building move
ment or a business At that age he should have found
his mate and married her. By then both may be pre-
sumed to understand that the major benefit of mar
riage lies in the DEVOTION the affection the friendship
it implies in what the partners are and not in what
they have.
