Well, I didn't want to clog up my previous post with this, but thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about Ivanhoe, Rowena and Rebecca with us. Yes, didn't we all want Ivanhoe to marry Rebecca instead of Rowena? But when Walter Scott wrote his world-famous tale back in the 19th century, the idea of a Christian knight like Ivanhoe marrying a Jewish woman was simply too controversial, so Rebecca's Guardianship failed. The way our cruel Rules stand in the way of true love! But from now on, I will consider Rebecca one of the great tragic Guardian Angels of written history. I will certainly never think of the story of Ivanhoe in the same way again!
