How do we know marriage was God's design?

Answered in 1 source

Marriage is God's design, first established in Genesis 2 when He made Eve for Adam, highlighting His intention for human companionship.

The biblical account of creation in Genesis chapters 1 and 2 lays the foundation for understanding marriage as God's design. In Genesis 2:24, God prescribes the institution of marriage when He states, 'Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.' This verse not only establishes the marital relationship but also emphasizes the purpose of companionship and procreation under God's ordination. By creating woman from man, God demonstrates the interconnectedness of their roles, affirming marriage as a divine ordinance meant to reflect His glory throughout history.
