Ephesians 5:30-32
1599 Geneva Bible
30 For we are members of his body, [a]of his flesh, and of his bones.
31 (A)For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall [b]cleave to his wife, and they twain shall be one flesh.
32 [c]This is a great secret, but I speak concerning Christ, and concerning the Church.

- Ephesians 5:30 He alludeth to the making of the woman, which signifieth our coupling together with Christ, which is wrought by faith, but is sealed by the Sacrament of the Supper.
- Ephesians 5:31 See Matt. 19:5
- Ephesians 5:32 That no man might dream of natural conjunction or knitting of Christ and his Church together (such as the husbands and the wives is) he showeth that it is secret, to wit, spiritual and such as far differeth from the common capacity of man: as which consisteth by the virtue of the Spirit, and not of the flesh by faith, and by no natural band.
