Many commentaries suggest that the idea of the Mother's house was an indication of softness, that a mother would be better able to consul the widowed daughter. Other commentaries suggest that woman often resided in a separate part of the house than the men. This part was called the Mother's house. I believe the term was used to direct the daughters in law back to their own mothers. |
