A good wife is a good gift to her husband

A good wife is a good gift to her husband

A good wife should be valued like a gift that not everyone is privileged to receive. A good wife is something important to her husband.

("It is written in the book of Ben Sira: A good wife is a good gift to her husband, and it is written: She will be given as a good thing into the bosom of one who fears God. A bad wife is leprosy to her husband" – Yevamot 63b)
