GEN937 Look for opportunities to endear a wife to her husband and a husband to his wife. Rashi cites the Talmud Baba Metzia 87a which states that the angels knew that due to modesty Sara remained in her tent. Nevertheless, they asked Avraham her whereabouts in order to give him the satisfaction of recalling his wife’s modesty, thereby further endearing her to him. Rabbi Chayim Shmuelevitz commented that Avraham and Sara were both very old at the time and had been married for many ears. Nevertheless, the angels felt it appropriate to point out Sara’s good qualities to her husband. An important lesson about married couples can be learned from this. Regardless of a couple’s age and the lengthy of time they have been married, it is always worthwhile to endear one to the other and to careful not to say anything derogatory about a husband to a wife or vice versa.
