Matthew 194-6

• And He answered and said to them, Have you not
  read that He who made them at the beginning made
  them male and female, 5 and said, For this
  reason a man shall leave his father and mother
  and be joined to his wife, and the two shall
  become one flesh? 6 So then, they are no longer
  two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined
  together, let not man separate.

  each man have his own wife, and let each woman

  fruitful and multiply fill the earth and subdue
  it have dominion over the fish of the sea, over
  the birds of the air, and over every living thing
  that moves on the earth.

7
Hebrews 134

• Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed
  undefiled but fornicators and adulterers God
  will judge.

8
1 Corinthians 73-5

• Let the husband render to his wife the affection
  due her, and likewise also the wife to her
  husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over
  her own body, but the husband does. And likewise
  the husband does not have authority over his own
  body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one
  another except with consent for a time, that you
  may give yourselves to fasting and prayer and
  come together again so that Satan does not tempt
  you because of your lack of self-control.

• Patriarchal in Government
• 1 Timothy 211-15
• Joshua 2415

10
1 Timothy 211-14

• Let a woman learn in silence with all
  submission. 12 And I do not permit a woman to
  teach or to have authority over a man, but to be
  in silence. 13 For Adam was formed first, then
  Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman
  being deceived, fell into transgression. 15
  Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if
  they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with
  self-control.

11
Joshua 2415

• And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD,
  choose for yourselves this day whom you will
  serve, whether the gods which your fathers served
  that were on the other side of the River, or the
  gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.
  But as for me and my house, we will serve the
  LORD.

• Religious in Spirit
• Deuteronomy 66-9

Deuteronomy 66-9

• And these words which I command you today shall
  be in your heart. 7 You shall teach them
  diligently to your children, and shall talk of
  them when you sit in your house, when you walk by
  the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
  8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand,
  and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
  9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your
  house and on your gates.

14
Ephesians 61-4

• Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for
  this is right. 2 Honor your father and mother,
  which is the first commandment with promise 3
  that it may be well with you and you may live
  long on the earth. 4 And you, fathers, do not
  provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up
  in the training and admonition of the Lord.

• Indissoluable in Nature
• 1 Corinthians 739
• Matthew 196-9
• Romans 72-3

16
1 Corinthians 739

• A wife is bound by law as long as her husband
  lives but if her husband dies, she is at liberty
  to be married to whom she wishes, only in the
  Lord.

17
Matthew 196-9

• Therefore what God has joined together, let not
  man separate. 7 They said to Him, Why then did
  Moses command to give a certificate of divorce,
  and to put her away? 8 He said to them, Moses,
  because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted
  you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning
  it was not so. 9 And I say to you, whoever
  divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality,
  and marries another, commits adultery and
  whoever marries her who is divorced commits
  adultery.

18
Romans 72-3

• For the woman who has a husband is bound by the
  law to her husband as long as he lives. But if
  the husband dies, she is released from the law of
  her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband
  lives, she marries another man, she will be
  called an adulteress but if her husband dies,
  she is free from that law, so that she is no
  adulteress, though she has married another man.
