Discussion Questions
- What was not good? Why? How can we create a fellowship that protects against loneliness?
- What does the naming of the animals say about mankind?
- The ESV translated two Hebrew words as “helper fit for” him. What is the significance and implications of these words as related to man and woman?
- What is a covenant? How does that shape marriage?
- What are lies the culture believes about marriage?
- How do husband and wife “leave” their father and mother?
- What are some implications about our sexuality from this passage?
- What does it mean that the husband will host fast to his wife? What does that look like?
- The same Greek word used for “hold fast” in Genesis 2 is used by Paul in 1 Corinthians 6:17 – he who is “joined” to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. How are the two related? How are we joined to the Lord?
- What other foundational themes of scripture can you see in this passage?
