Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Or know ye not that he that is joined to a harlot is one body? for, The twain, saith he, shall become one flesh.
for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church;
because we are members of his body.
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh.
This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church.
