Excerpt from The Religion of the Family

His lisping infant prattling on his knee, Does a' his weary, carking cares beguile, And makes him quite forget his labor and his toil.

Home is Of divine origin - an idea In the mind Of the Creator, and only reaches its true character and full significance when it conforms to the original appointment of God. Adam was alone; all other creatures had their fellows, but as yet no companion was in existence capable Of being the associate of this highest creature Of the new creation. It is not good, said the Lord God, that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him, not Of the dust Of the earth, as I have made him and every beast Of the field and fowl Of the air, but in such a manner as that she shall be part Of his own life, bone Of his bone, and flesh Of his flesh, so that they shall cleave together in a holy union, deeper and clearer than that Of any other relation.
