Genesis 2
18. Yahweh God said, It is not good for a man to be alone; I will make a helper for him.
19. From the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would name them.
20. And Adam gave names to all the livestock, and to the birds of the air, and to all the beasts of the field, because Adam had no helper.
21. And the LORD God put Adam into a deep sleep, and while he slept, he took one of his ribs and filled it with flesh instead.
22. The LORD God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from Adam, and brought her to Adam.
23. And Adam said, This is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; and she shall be called woman, because it is taken from man.
24. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.
25. Adam and his wife were both naked, but they were not ashamed.
1 Peter 3
1. In the same way, wives, submit to your husbands, so that if any one disobeys the way, he may be saved, not by words but by the deeds of his wives.
2. I see your fearful deeds
3. Your headdress should not be adorned with hair, wearing gold, or wearing beautiful clothes.
4. But let the hidden person be incorruptible of a meek and stable spirit, for this is precious in the sight of God.
5. In the same way the holy women who had hoped in God adorned themselves in submission to their husbands.
6. Just as Sarah obeyed Abraham by calling him lord, so you became his daughters by doing good and not being alarmed by any fear.
7. Husbands, in the same way, cohabit with your wives according to knowledge, knowing that he is a weaker vessel and one who will also inherit the grace of life, and honor it, so that your prayers may not be blocked.

Text: Genesis 2:18-25, 1 Peter 3:1-7,
There are proverbs about happy marriages and families left behind by human experiences. “One kiln of bread spoils a week, a poor harvest ruins a year, an unhappy marriage ruins a life” (Estonian proverb). “If you meet the wrong husband, you will be enemies for life, and if you meet the wrong wife, you will be enemies for life” (Korean proverb). “The very rare thing of a good marriage is evidence of how precious and great it is” (MF Montaigne). “Marriage is the beginning of love in the true sense” (JW Goethe). It is the beginning of and its normality. It softens the violent, and for the educated man it is the best opportunity to prove his warmth” (J.W. Goethe). The first two are fatalistic positions, the third is the value of a good marriage, and the latter two are the cultural creative positions of marriage.
In terms of expression, the first three are called 'marriage', whereas the creative position is 'marriage'. The meaning of the creation article is thought to include both. what kind of meeting Its importance cannot be overemphasized. But no less than that, how do you proceed with that meeting? It is also an important challenge. “Therefore a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and the two become one flesh” (Genesis 2:24). This is also the meaning of Goethe's references to marriage. Here, meditating on the marriage life that Jesus spoke of (Matthew 19:4-6) and coming to the words of today's New Testament 'living together according to knowledge' (1 Peter 3:7), what is the reality of men and women ? will ask you a question.
John Gray's suggestion shows that there is an existential difference between men and women. When a woman encounters an object, she responds in the order of ‘feeling->speaking->thought’. When a man encounters an object, he reacts in the order of 'feeling->action->thinking'. Of course, as experience accumulates and develops, the ability to perform these three simultaneously occurs, but it is said that this primal mode of reaction still continues. It is said that the original reaction came from the lifestyle of the hunting society, the early form of human culture. When dealing with the same thing, the brain function makes women utter 'words' and 'actions' for men. In this process, how should ‘becoming one body’ be realized? There is a saying: “For a happy marriage, the husband must be deaf and the wife blind” (R. Taverner).
