- Following a brief discussion of marriage in ancient Israel, the author summarizes the marriage rites of the modern Jews, as in the custom of a husband smashing a cup against the wall "in perpetual remembrance of the mournful destruction of their once noble and magnificent temple" (p. 27). A perfect copy has a frontispiece. Frequently reissued.
