Bat Kohen

The Marriage of a Bat Kohen to a Kohen

A source-based study of the Bat Kohen, the Kohen, and the Torah ideal of continuity within the priestly family of Aharon.

Through the words of Chazal and the simuchin in Vayikra, the book presents the ideal that a Bat Kohen marry a Kohen, and that a Kohen seek a Bat Kohen wherever possible — kol heicha d’matzi.
A path of blessing and alignment: Chazal’s understanding of the Torah points the Bat Kohen and the Kohen toward one another for the sanctity, continuity, and welfare of the priestly home.

About the Book

Bat Kohen brings together Torah sources, teachings of Chazal, and the simuchin in Vayikra to examine the marriage ideal connecting the daughter of a Kohen and the Kohen.

The book speaks to both sides of the priestly home: the Bat Kohen who carries the inheritance of Kehuna, and the Kohen who carries its dignity, responsibility, and continuity.
