Ephesians 5:32

bride

Ephesians 5:30,31 are quoted from Genesis 2:23,24 and exclude the interpretation that the reference is to the church merely as the body of Christ. Eve, taken from Adam's body, was truly "bone of his bones, and flesh of his flesh," but she was also his wife, united to him in a relation which makes of "twain. . . one flesh" Matthew 19:5,6 and so a clear type of the church as bride of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:2,3. The bride type are Eve Genesis 2:23,24 Rebecca
