How does one get married in our day and age?
A man GIVES the woman a ring and she RECEIVES it. THAT is the model for marriage. He WANTS to give and she WANTS to receive. When she receives that ring they are cemented together forever. Every subsequent act of giving brings them closer and yet closer.
It is significant that he is giving her something that she WANTS. In this context she knows that this is the way she is going to be married so she is THRILLED to receive it. He knows that this is the only way she is going to have a wife so he is THRILLED to give it. This, too, is a model for life. He should WANT to give and she should WANT to receive and that is how a man and a woman become .....
ONE!:-)
