Always do what you can to promote a peaceful relationship between a husband and wife.
Aaron, Moses’ brother, was known as someone who sought to make peace wherever possible. In the first chapter of Pirkei Avot, Ethics of the Fathers, that will be studied around the world this Shabbat, we have a famous, often-quoted passage, “Hillel used to say: be of the disciples of Aaron, loving peace and pursuing peace, loving humankind and drawing them close to the Torah.” Consider the steps you can take to positively impact upon others you know by following Aaron’s lead.
Out of respect for Shabbat, please consider printing out the 1st Chapter of Pirkei Avot on Friday afternoon if you plan to study it on Shabbat.
