Judges 19:4-9

There is somewhat very interesting in family happiness. The Lord hath entwined the heart of man to man. And in the nearer connections of life, the knot is drawn yet closer. But as to all these creature enjoyments, simply as creatures, what the apostle saith should be ever kept in view, "That they that have wives be as though they had none: and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not:" for the transition from the house of joy to that of mourning, is but from one room to another. 1 Corinthians 7:29.
