Exactly. And yet you keep dragging this verse out as if it said otherwise.

Yes but sometimes other scriptures help put it in context and you keep leaving out Matthew 1:24 which says: Matthew 1 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

So now here in Genesis we get an idea of what a wife is: (and as oftentimes happen in the spiritual world, the verse number is the same......eeeek) Genesis 1:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

Yes, Joseph married Mary. This is not in dispute.

So now here in Genesis we get an idea of what a wife is: (and as oftentimes happen in the spiritual world, the verse number is the same......eeeek) Genesis 1:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

You think, perhaps, that this is a sexual reference? Grow up.

Genesis 1:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
I agree. This is the natural and Biblical implication.

Any other conclusion needs additional evidence.
