    can anyone supply any information about something apparently called shabbos gehinom?
    I have never heard of this. What if any minhogim are there?
    What does/should each family do for each other?

    P.s I ask because my brother became a chasson and this strange term was bandied around. I hat asnything where such words has 'gehionm' are used.

    thanks

    No clue. Why don't you ask whomever it was who spoke about it and please get back to us and enlighten us.

    All I know about Shabbos and Gehinnom is that on Shabbos the fires of Gehinnom are turned off (for those who were Shomer Shabbos khilchaso including the time they kept Tosafos Shabbos)

    This lobsterback doesn't get a subtitle. Next time don't massacre us in Boston, and we'll think about it. And no taxation without 16th amendmentation!

    Mazel tov!

    With all this talk, I am always reminded about how blessed I am that my in-laws and I got along perfectly from Day 1 and that my parents and stepmother get along with my wife perfectly.

    Interestingly enough, the first time I met my future father-in-law was when he was sitting shiva for his father. Eeees and I had begun dating only a few weeks earlier and I had never met her father prior to the point when his father passed away.

    never caustic

    "when the chosson eats by the kalla"
    " first shabbos with his new mother in law "

    Funny!

    Common knowledge that the term is used for the first Shabbos a chossen spends with his in laws. Usually said in a joking way, but even with the ideal in laws it can be tense.

    I happen to have great in laws.

    Shabbos Gehennom is the first Shabbos after you lose eligibility for food shtemps and suddenly notice what kosher food really costs.

    (Yes, I'm back - gotta prepare 30 days before the chag and that means Peerim is on the way!)
