Marriage is found throughout the world as a part of natural law. Wishing to incorporate it into the faith of the Hebrews, since it was according to His design, God gave His people a greater understanding of marriage in the Mosaic Law. Christ also exalted marriage and lifted it to the level of a sacrament by making it a means of live, fruitfulness, and holiness through His blessing the Wedding at Cana (cf. John 2:1-11). There He transformed water in six stone jars (necessary to fulfill Mosaic marriage) into wine (a symbol of grace), making it impossible for the couple to follow the Law of Moses, but granting them directly His own blessing on their marriage.
