Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
All Commentaries on Genesis 2:24 Go To Genesis 2

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
Scripture said, “A man will leave father and mother, and he will cling to his wife, and they will be two in one flesh.” This is what generally happens in the human race. There is no other way to view its plain, historical sense. But more so, this is all prophecy, and the apostle reminds us of this when he says, “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and he will cling to his wife, and they will be two in one flesh. This is a great mystery; I mean in Christ and in the church.” .
