Become One Flesh

There's something precious about wedding pictures. They capture two people in love, on what's their most important day together (besides having children, or course). But it's also something more, it's the start of a new family.
 
"Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." - Genesis 2:24

This verse sets forth the biblical pattern as it was instituted by God at the beginning: one man is united to one woman in matrimony, and the two form one new natural family.
