4 Jesus answered, "Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’*Genesis 1:27; Genesis 5:2 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’*Genesis 2:24 (see also LXX)? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
