It is not a mere social construct, but a Divine creation. It is God&#8217;s provision for man&#8217;s need for companionship and oneness. This oneness is three-dimensional, involving the physical, the soul and the spirit. It is also God&#8217;s plan for having children and parenting. The Bible opens and closes with a wedding and God is intimately involved in both. This proverb describes God&#8217;s favor in the finding of a good wife. She is to be treasured and received as a gift from God. When a husband and wife view one another as a gift from God to be received and cherished, they begin to experience the oneness that He intended.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"68rsc\" data-offset-key=\"b3tat-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"b3tat-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"b3tat-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"68rsc\" data-offset-key=\"d4br-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"d4br-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"d4br-0-0\">I am a man who has obtained God&#8217;s favor.
