What does the statement with all my worldly goods I thee endow in the traditional wedding vows mean?
I'm at work and should be working, however, we got talking about wedding vows here at the office and this phrase came up, so I googled it and came up with this forum. I was looking for a history of the phrase because to me, the meaning seems self-apparent. I did learn that it is not so much a part of the wedding vows as what is said at the exchange of rings in the wedding ceremony...it is found in the book of common prayer from 1919 but goes way back before that.. meaning...well, all your earthly goods means everything you own here on this earth (not your treasures in Heaven), thee--means your wife to be, and endow, means that you give it to her...so, when you give your wife that ring, it is partially a symbol of the fact that everything you own becomes hers as well...not my stuff and your stuff, but our stuff....our joint account
