I try to avoid terms that have a whiff of platitude to them. But in this case, I heartily agree with Eliyahu’s use of the word “family.” Such long-term relationships – often strained but ultimately strong – are an absolutely necessary complement to all of the pieces of paper that must be created and signed in the Middle East.
