What is the Sacrament of Marriage?

     The Sacrament of Marriage is a covenant, which is more than a contract. A covenant always expresses a relationship between persons. The marriage covenant refers to the relationship between the husband and wife, a permanent union of persons capable of knowing and loving each other and God.

"The vocation to marriage
is written in the very nature of man and woman
as they come from the hand of the Creator."-CCC, no.1603

The marriage covenant refers to the relationship between the husband and wife,
a permanent union of persons capable of knowing and loving each other and God. Marriage is not purely a human institution despite the many variations it may have undergone through the centuries  in different cultures, and social structures.
