Marriage has a unique place because it speaks of an absolute faithfulness, a covenant between radically different persons, male and female; and so it echoes the absolute covenant of God with his chosen, a covenant between radically different partners.

  • -- Rowan D. Williams 罗文·D·威廉姆斯

婚姻之所以具有独特的地位,是因为它所表达的是绝对的忠诚,是完全不同的男女之间的契约;所以它呼应了上帝与他所选之人的绝对契约,一个完全不同的伙伴之间的契约。
