III. The Love of Husband and Wife
2364
The married couple forms “the intimate partnership of life and love established
by the Creator and governed by his laws; it is rooted in the conjugal covenant,
that is, in their irrevocable personal consent.”146 Both give
themselves definitively and totally to one another. They are no longer two;
from now on they form one flesh. the covenant they freely contracted imposes on
the spouses the obligation to preserve it as unique and
indissoluble.147 “What therefore God has joined together, let not
man put asunder.”148
