הגדרה (אנגלית)

A lonely life without a wife is not good. A lonely man is in a bad situation.

("It is not good for man to be alone - hence the wise men said: "He who is poor without a wife is poor without a good: I will make him a helper as his opposite. For a woman who helps a man, who brings wheat to grind and bake, and brings flax and spins and makes his clothes and clothes him and makes him stand on his feet, is a helper, not a helper as his opposite." - Midrash Agada (Buber) At the beginning of chapter 2, it says: "He was a servant without a wife, and sometimes a woman would come to him and sit with him" - Agnon/ Tamol Shilshom, 56)
