Matthew 19:5-6 . . . For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall join to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh? So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, dont let man tear apart.
[I believe this last statement means what God declares or
regards as being joined together . . . not necessarily a union that took place
in holy submission to his will. Verse 5 suggests that God's plan was for sex to
occur only after the deliberate and public act of leaving one's parental authority
for the purpose of joining oneself to other.]
