    Rebbetzin Rochel Miller and her book The Simchah of Marriage - Encore

    Rebbetzin Rochel Miller is Heather Dean’s featured guest this encore episode of “613 Books” Podcast, discussing her new book, The Simchah of Marriage. Rebbetzin Miller spent her first eleven years in Israel learning the secrets of the eternal Jewish home with Rebbetzin Talya Helfer in a course based on the Hebrew-language sefer Ohel Rochel. Realizing that this precious learning was missing in the English-speaking world, Rebbetzin Miller was inspired to share her learning through teaching. Her classes, based on the wisdom from the sefer Ohel Rochel began in Jerusalem twenty-five years ago. They have been called “life-changing,” “healing,” and “medicine for our generation.” These classes now take place in person and internationally over Zoom. Rebbetzin Miller’s, is a continuation of her classes, a gift for the many women who have felt deprived and unaware of the true inner peace and goals of the Jewish marriage.
