And Lamech took two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.
He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”
Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”
