1 | For this cause shall a man leave father | Matt 19:4 | Ken John | 110615 | ||
God created Adam and Eve,a male and a female.My question relates more to Matthew 19:5"And said,for this cause shall a man leave father and mother,and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?"(KJV) Since neither Adam nor Eve at this time had a mother, why do you think God explained marriage this way? He must have had a good reason? |

2 | For this cause shall a man leave father | Matt 19:4 | Rowdy | 110621 | ||
Remember, most scholars agree that Moses wrote the first 5 books of the OT, with the help of inspiration from the Lord. So everything is written from his perspective, at least several centuries after the events in Genesis took place. |

3 | Who was Adam and Eve's mother? | Matt 19:4 | Ken John | 110629 | ||
Greetings Rowdy, Thanks for your answer. I agree with what you have said that Moses wrote the first five books but under God's inspiration. So God was both father and mother to Adam and Eve ? However Jesus knew the position so why did He mention a father and a mother when, as I read this verse Matt 19:5, He was referring to marriage way back in the beginning? Am I reading into this more than there is? Or is Jesus telling us something we should know for life today? |

4 | Who was Adam and Eve's mother? | Matt 19:4 | Morant61 | 110665 | ||
Greetings KenJohn! Yeah, I think that you are reading into it more than there is! ;-) Jesus is simply quoting the first marriage passage as found in Exodus. This passage simply establishes that the normal pattern will be that a man and a women will leave there parents and become a new 'family'. Obviously, this did not apply to Adam and Eve since they had no human parents. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
