both now and forevermore. - Whom do I have in heaven except you?
And besides you there is nothing else I desire on earth. - He replied, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female’ and said: ‘That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two become one flesh’?
