Bible Verses About marriage

Scripture answer

Marriage is described in Scripture as a covenant — a daily pursuit of unity, kindness, and love that mirrors Christ and the church.

Start with Genesis 2:24, Ephesians 5:25, Ephesians 5:33; read each passage in its chapter.

That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

Each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

Love is patient, love is kind... It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Two are better than one... A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.

And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord.
