Emet

This is an email I got from a friend in Birmingham. He did a lot of studying on Jewish weddings in preparation for his own (he and his wife got married last year after Sukkot) so I asked him for some help with the study I was doing. Unfortunately I got in touch […]

A traditional Jewish wedding consists of two parts (I got these names wrong a bit when I spoke Friday Night):

* The Eyrusin - The betrothal; also called the Kiddushin which means “the setting apart” (lit. “sanctification”)
* The Nisuin - The actual wedding ceremony (would have been held no less than one year after the eyrusin)
