Still doesnt change the fact that there was marriages before the bible was written.
But also doesnt take into account that the scriptures were around for over 1,000 yrs before the bible was put together.
Point i was making. Was someone said it came directly from the bible.

LOL, well I think God had His bases covered since He performed the marriage ceremony between the first two inhabitants on the planet. I took Gut's point to mean that the instituition of marriage was set up by God. The Bible initlially was "put together" Moses. His first five books were used extensively by priests to lead the people and were then added to by other prophets writing the remaining books over the course of the next 1,500 years.
