That was God in Genesis who said that it was not good for man to be alone.

Christ, in the gospels, and St. Paul, recommend virginity.

Ha ha.

So Christ was a Modalist when he says in the Sermon on the Mount: “You have heard it said...But I say to you...”?

Genesis is telling us about the natural order. Marriage is part of the natural order. When Jesus and St. Paul recommend virginity, they do so explicitly for the sake of the Kingdon—the order of grace.
