By Paul Richardson


Sometimes there are important events in the life of an individual that is usually directed at someone of a particular caliber. A Christian and Jewish wedding Rabbi is someone that has a high ranking in society. Due to this reasons, there are specific ways that their subjects expect them to carry themselves around and that is what has been explained in this article.

Some codes guide a marriage, and anyone who is involved in conducting such a ceremony must understand them fully. It is knowledgeable in such matters that they can also tell the same message to the people that are getting married. If there is no wisdom that they can pass around, then they are not fit enough to be wedding teachers.

There is a mode of dressing that you are expected to have especially during the event. You cannot just dress informally like any other person who has been invited. It should be presentable and in a formal way. At most times it also shows the people of how sanctified an individual.

What is expected of you is to use a language that everybody understands. That means you have to gauge the kind of people you will to speak to and hence prepare accordingly. The kind of language you use depends on the people you are speaking to.

Experience is vital. If you happen to the one presiding over a wedding, you must offer advice to the couple. This cannot be the case if you do not understand anything about marriages and hence no one will even be listening to you. You have to find a way that you are well informed about all the issues that affect marriages, and you can offer the best advice to both parties.

This is a day you want everyone to be happy, and so it is not wise to pick someone who cannot bring you fun. You want everyone to leave satisfied about everything, and hence it is wise if you chose on the right rabbi. If that is the case, then you will not witness a situation where people will start leaving before time just because they are bored listening to your teacher.

As a rabbi, always strive to tell the truth. Marriage partners do not want to be told lies. They should be told the truth however much it might seem painful to you. Do not just say anything because you are looking forward to pleasing some individuals. The moment you stand for the truth it sets you above other people and people will also believe in you and what you are saying. Telling them that everything is going to be smooth in the union when you know that it is wrong because when they realize that you lied that is when people might even start losing faith in the church.

All that has been written here goes towards the accepted behavior of a rabbi. It takes a lot of time to master such skills and know how and when to use them. Amateurs are advised to ensure that they learn everything first before they try practicing it. It saves you and your self-esteem from the feeling that you are a worthless person or you cannot be any good.
