DAF HASHAVUA
Bava Basra 110a
אמר רבא הנושא אשה צריך שיבדוק באחיה
The Steipler zt"l said,
" Chazal who require
to check out the brother of the girl you intend
to
marry, is only applicable in
a time and place where
all are Frum*. In such a case
if the brother is
not
Frum, then you should suspect
that there is a bad root
in the Mishpacha.
In today's age where there
are so many distractions
and the streets are flooded
with immorality etc.
If the son ch"v
goes off the Derech it is not the fault
of the father. It is not a פגם
(blemish) in the family and
one may marry the
sister".
With this סברא we can
understand how
our Zaida Yitzchok
married Rivka and wasn't
concerned with her brother
