Marriage......our new topical study

Read Gen. 1:26-28 and 2:18-25

In chapter 1, on the sixth day, we see God creating the first man and woman. He tells them to have children, fill the earth, and subdue it.

At the end of the third through sixth days, God "saw that it was good". But in chapter 2, when the creation of man is revisited, God says "It is NOT good that man should be alone." So God makes a woman for Adam. She is made to complete him as a man. Adam chooses to name her with a form of his name. The man and woman are made to go together. Dad's insight for the day......."Bachelors and spinsters are a result of the fall! No one was created to be alone. Ever."

Adam is very happy! A new family is formed when a marriage takes place. It is all part of the cycle of life. (paul's comment)
