In Genesis 2:18 we read: "It is not good for the man to be alone". No one seems to realize how deep this goes. In Genesis 1:26 God said: "Let us make man (Adam) in Our Image. Adam here is plural, this represents mankind. Adam & Eve together reveal God's Image and Glory. Eve is the helper (ezer) meaning defender, ally & protector. In the same way that God is the helper for man. As Adam and Eve unite together to become one, mankind is to unite together and become one with God. Together they reveal God's Image and Glory.
The husband is to defend and protect his wife & the wife is to defend and protect her husband. They are to become an ally for each other. They are to be united together as one, with one purpose and intent. If they can not do that, then they should not get married because they would be defeating God plan and purpose for them to be united together as one.
God is infinite, so this is just a start, a beginning of understanding - God's purpose and intent when He made Adam and Eve. His plan was for them to cleave or be united together so: "they become one flesh".
If a wife can not defend & protect her husband. If the husband can not or does not defend and protect his wife, then they are not one (ally). A house divided can not stand. A man and a women that is not united does not represent God to bring Him Honor and Glory.
