Tonight I saw the show Fiddler on the Roof! Great show with an unexpected ending, and I'm still unsure as to why it's called Fiddler on the Roof (although I also couldn't follow a minute of The Dark Knight Rises at the drive-in last night, so maybe I'm just having an off weekend). Anyway, lots of Old Testament Biblical references in the show, which I loved. I decided to re-read the story of Jacob and Rachel and Leah tonight before bed after it was mentioned in the play.
"So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him but a few days because of the love he had for her." (Genesis 29:20)
Love does not make sense. It does not tell time or keep records. And the greatest of these is love.
