Yov was overwhelmed

2 Kislef

We were incredibly busy yesterday but I will fill you in on the highlights. The maidens accompanying the bride included my little Rivkah. She and Miri looked lovely, dressed in their best following the bride and groom as they left Hadassah's house to go to the wedding. Miri had never been to a wedding but you'd never have guessed. They had waited all night with Vered and not fallen asleep...much. Hadassah later told me that the young women had been on their best behaviour because of the children... Not a bit like us, when we were younger we spent a few nights with brides in waiting and I remember what we talked about. Perhaps she dozed off...

Enough of that. Yov was overwhelmed by the number of family who turned up. He was completely unaware they were coming. The place was packed. Not only that Rabbi Yeshua was here with the Talmidim, it seems some of them are family to Yov and they invited the others. He travels with so many people but thankfully they did not all come or we may have had another wine crisis! Suffice to say everyone was extremely merry by the time the speeches began...
