Mark 10:8

And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.

And the twain shall be one flesh,.... This is the remaining part of the citation out of Genesis 2:24;

See Gill on "Matthew 19:5";

so then they are no more twain; but one flesh; as Adam and Eve were both by creation and marriage: and so two persons, a man and woman, being lawfully married together, become one flesh, or "one body", as the Arabic and Persic versions render the phrase; and therefore the wife is to be loved by the husband as his own body, and from whom there should be no separation, until death, but in case of adultery;

See Gill on "Matthew 19:6".
