Marriage



For contemplation, he, and valor formed; for softness she, and sweet attractive grace; he for God only, she for God in him. ---- John Milton

Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him." But there was not found a helper fit for him. So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of the ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. Then the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man." Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh (Genesis 2:18, 20b-24). 

A hymn to read, sing, hum, or whistle, to the glory of God: O Happy Home, Where Thou Art Loved.
