One of my favorite words in the Bible is the Hebrew word chesed. It is the term for covenant faithfulness, loyalty. I always talk about chesed at weddings. A relationship is beginning that will be severely tested. I want the couple to know that God is establishing chesed between them. It means that each of them has the right to expect certain behavior from the other in light of the promises they are making on this day.
