November 18, 2007: Something Bigger – Michael Hidalgo

So what exactly is marriage, and why was Jesus so intent on protecting it? Paul speak about marriage as a picture of the mystery of God’s love for us. There is something in the physical union of two people that is intensely spiritual. This kind of relationship cannot be treated lightly and thrown around. Jesus sees the way divorce had become in his world - which resulted in the abuse and neglect and woman - and tightens the loose boundaries. His view of marriage reclaimed the original intent - that two would become one.
