From where did marriage originate?

The origins of marriage spring from the pages of Scripture, emanating from a Holy Creator who designed it specifically to bring a man and a woman into the most satisfying of human relationships. Apr 28 00, 3:10 PM

Here's one take: "Marriage has Judeo/Christian biblical roots and was instituted by God when he declared, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him" (Gen. 2:18). So God fashioned woman and brought her to man." "A modern day version of this is that God created the heavens and the earth including man in about 6 days, and then rested. He created woman in an instant. Since then, no one has rested!" "The time span between God’s decree and the beginning of recorded history is unknown." http://www.limarriages.com/customs.html Feb 01 08, 3:47 PM
