What Does The LORD Say About Marriage

 

Genesis 2:22-24

 

Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman, ' for she was taken out of man." For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

 

​Proverbs 5: 18-19

 

May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe, a graceful deer-- may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be captivated by her love

 

Proverbs 31:10

 

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.

 

Deuteronomy 24:5

 

If ​a man has recently married, he must not be sent to war or have any other duty laid on him. For one year he is to be free to stay at home and bring happiness to the wife he has married.

 

​Colossian 3: 18-19

 

Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.

 

​​Mark 10: 6-9

 

"But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.' 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." ​
