Marriage and the Mystery of the Gospel

Marriage is so much more than a human institution. The Bible teaches that marriage was created by God and reveals an eternal mystery—the mystery of the gospel. In this way, marriage paints a picture of our salvation in and through Jesus Christ. In the second volume in the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series, pastor Ray Ortlund traces the Bible’s teaching on marriage from Genesis to Revelation—revealing how marriage stands at the center of God’s redemptive purposes for the world. Helping us grasp a cosmic vision of this oft-misunderstood institution, this volume honors and exalts marriage as a grand display of the gospel, offering guidance and hope for our own marriages today.
