Overview

Excerpt from Intermarriage Why in these days should Judaism still continue to oppose intermarriage? It is argued that the strength of the power of love is such that no consideration of expediency can withstand it. If this were true, and men married when they fell in love without allowing their heads in some measure to control their hearts, marriage would by now have become a thoroughly discredited human institution. The experience of the human race has decreed that between falling in love and getting married, there shall be an appreciable inter val for reflection. This experience is summed up in the proverbial saying, Marry in haste, repent at leisure. Every marriage is virtually an irrevocable act, and a mismarriage can be rectified only by the costly, tedious and painful processes of the divorce court. The Jewish man who has fallen in love with some fair non-jewish maiden would therefore do well not to overlook some of the practical considerations involved in his taking the final step of marriage with its lifelong obligations.
