וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֔ים לֹא־ט֛וֹב הֱי֥וֹת הָֽאָדָ֖ם לְבַדּ֑וֹ אֶֽעֱשֶׂהּ־לּ֥וֹ עֵ֖זֶר כְּנֶגְדּֽוֹ׃
L’Éternel-Dieu dit: "Il n’est pas bon que l’homme soit isolé; je lui ferai une aide digne de lui."
Yevamot
Rabbi Tanchum said in the name of Rabbi Chanilai Any person who does not possess a wife is not fitting to enjoy simcha, blessing or goodness (from above). Not to enjoy simcha: (Deuteronomy 14:26) "You and your household (family) will have joy."
Yevamot
And Rabbi Elazar said That which is written "make for him a support opposite him," if he is worthy, she will be a support for him, if he is not worthy, she will be against him. And there are those that say Rabbi Elazar [noted] a contradiction, it is written opposite him [without a yud] and it read opposite him [with a yud], if he is worthy, she will be opposite him, if he not worthy she will afflict him.
