Genesis 2:24 says,
> Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
This makes sense in Trinitarian theology since we are made in God’s image as Genesis 1:27 says.
> So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
I understand Genesis 2:24 to be a reflection of the Trinity since a man and a woman, which are two people, become one flesh in the bond of marriage. This is similar to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit being three persons in one essence.
How do Unitarians explain being created in God’s image while also holding to this unification within marriage?
P.S. I am not putting forward some twisted idea that the Trinity is a marriage.
