TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

2:24 Marriage between a man and a woman is not just a human social construct but is rooted in the created order.
• a man leaves . . . and is joined: Marriage entails a shift of loyalty from parents to spouse.
• the two are united into one: Marriage and its commitments make it the most fundamental covenant relationship observed among humans. Marriage is a powerful image of Israel’s covenant with God (Hos 2:14-23) and of Christ’s relationship to the church (Eph 5:22-32). Marriage is designed as an inseparable, exclusive relationship between a man and a woman. The family unit it creates is the basic building block of human society.
