They're Prego

It's interesting how the mind and heart respond to news. Let me add mouth to that as well.
I get a text with a picture of a sonogram. The picture has a message attached to it that reads: "coming May 2013!" My first reaction is one of tremendous happiness and joy. This is one of my closest friends, who has been off the pill for 3.5 years. They have been married for almost 6 years. Now, all of our friends who are married have at least one kid and one friend is pregnant with number 3.
So there's definitely a lot going on in my head, although I think I'm in denial of my feelings. I am so so happy for my friend! I only want what's best for her and I have personally witnessed some of her hardships and life. If anyone deserves this, it is her!

A Shaila

Hi Rabbi H,

A friend of mine asked me a question last night and was too embarrassed to ask a rav so I told her I would email you.

The question is basically: what disqualifies a person from marrying a Kohen? We know that a divorcee is not allowed to but is but what about someone who has never been married? Do they HAVE to be a virgin? Does it make a difference whether or not she had relations with a Jew or non Jew? If a girl does marry a kohen and was not permitted, are her children mamzerim?

Thank you so much for all you do for my family!
R

Nice to hear from you R. I hope you are well.
If she was with a non- Jew intimately, she is forbidden to marry a Cohein, as well as remain married to a Cohein. The children are not mamzerim.

Good Shabbos,
mh

Saturation

When music makes u sad
Saturates Ur soul
Cuts Ur heart
Runs up and down Ur body
Notes flinging at u
Empty words filling w meaning
The melody that calls Ur name
A beat
A rhythm
