The role of Jewish women is to be the keli, the vessel, that is made of a holiness so high that it is hidden in this world… a vessel that first experiences a lack or emptiness… and then draws a giver so she can receive… and then takes what he gives and creates “something from nothing”, (like only Hashem does), and gives upward something entirely new and infinitely greater. The woman is the link between heaven and materialism in a way than the man is not. The man is in a relay race, receiving from the level above him and simply passing it to the woman below. He’s part of a chain. But the woman actually creates. She represents the dark and desolate materiality and combines it with the light of holiness the man passes down to her. The feminine role is the role of Israel. It’s an exponentially bigger and more exciting role than the male role. Hashem loves light that comes out of darkness. The men’s role is to simply protect and pass on the light they receive from above. The women’s role is to experience darkness and receive light from the male, then to produce an exponentially greater, different light and shine it from darkness. The feminine role is the purpose of the creation. And that’s why Torah teaches that all redemptions always come in the merit of righteous Jewish women.
The Torah says Laban tricked Jacob. In the garden the woman was deceived by the serpent but Adam, the man, was not deceived. He sinned willfully. And that's why death entered the world when Adam ate the fruit. It was foolish for him to follow his wife, just like it was foolish for Ahab to follow his wife Jezebel.
You say big decisiones like a divorce! That will be great news for all women who have troubele with the husband! Loud words are just words! Thanks for the true hypocracy!
