Israel Speaks | Jewish Matchmakers | Heaven TV7

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Jewish Matchmakers

In European Jewish communities, matchmakers used to have an important role. In modern Israel, religious Jews have preserved the tradition of matchmaking.

Efrat is a religious Jew and a mother of six children. Her mother’s friend Rochi arranged Efrat’s marriage. We asked Efrat as to how the process toward marriage progressed with the help of a matchmaker. After getting married, Efrat herself has got into matchmaking. We also meet Aharon, a professional matchmaker, who runs matchmaking business in Israel and Paris.
