Scripture Union Daily Guide 29 March 2022 Devotional | Outline
This passage presents the beginning of marriage. Let us take note of the following: 1. It is God who instituted marriage (v.18). God in His wisdom saw that it was not good that the man should be alone and went ahead to create a fitting helper for him. 2. The man was asleep when God was preparing his mate (vs.21‐22). God performed a surgical operation on the man and removed a rib from his side to form the woman. Thus, marriage is between a man and a woman. Nothing else. See Matthew 19:4. 3.
The man was satisfied and very happy with God’s gift to him (v.23). God Himself brought the bride to the man. In the light of the points mentioned above, how must marriage be viewed? Who wrote v.24? Now read Ephesians 5:22‐33 and see the Christian perspective of marriage. Every Christian marriage is supposed to give God full glory for this beautiful arrangement. It is worthy of note that Adam was given the right to name all the birds and all the animals (vs.19‐20).
He even named the lady brought to him (v.23)! What can we learn from this fact?
