SCRIPTURE

"For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife;" — Mark 10:7 (ASV)

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother
The Persic version adds, "and brethren and sisters", though without any foundation in the original text, in (Genesis 2:24) , from which this passage is cited; or in any copy of the evangelist:

and cleave to his wife; (See Gill on Matthew 19:5).
