Ten surprising facts about marriage in the Bible

10. Your first LOYALTY should always be to your spouse.

The Bible talks about “leaving and cleaving.” It’s a clear call to loyalty. Once we’re married, we can no longer place other family members or other pursuits ahead of the marriage. Your spouse has to come first. Defend each other. Protect each other. Be there for each other.

“That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24
