GENESIS | 2:22 sleep  — GEN322 A husband should overlook his wife’s defic...

GEN322 A husband should overlook his wife’s deficiencies in order to prevent disputes.  Adam’s state of unconsciousness at the time of the creation of Chava (Eve) illustrates how a husband should relate to his wife. At times a husband should act in his home as if he were asleep and unaware of his wife’s shortcomings.  Even if a wife forgets or disregards her husband’s wishes, the husband should not grow angry and shout.  He should overlook minor faults in order to avoid domestic quarrels.  (Toldos Yitzchok cited in Maim Loaiz on this verse).  PLYN 24-25
