Unbeknownst to the people of Moses’ day (it was a ‘mystery’), marriage was designed by God from the beginning to be a picture or parable of the relationship between Christ and the church. Back when God was planning what marriage would be like, He planned it for this great purpose: it would give a beautiful earthly picture of the relationship that would someday come about between Christ and His church. This was not known to people for many generations, and that is why Paul can call it a ‘mystery.’ But now in the New Testament age Paul reveals this mystery, and it is amazing. This means that when Paul wanted to tell the Ephesians about marriage, he did not just hunt around for a helpful analogy and suddenly think that “Christ and the church” might be a good teaching illustration. No, it was much more fundamental than that: Paul saw that when God designed the original marriage, He already had Christ and the church in mind. This is one of God’s great purposes in marriage: to picture the relationship between Christ and His redeemed people forever! (George Knight)

INSTRUCTIONS

Recipe by: The Fannie Farmer Cookbook Preheat the broiler. Sprinkle the
cavity with salt and pepper. Rub the outside with oil. Place on an oiled
rack 5-inches below the broiler (at the second level) and broil for 5
minutes on each side. The skin will just be spottily charred and the flesh
moist and tender. Serve with lemon wedges.
Variations:
Broiled Trout with Rosemary:
Place a sprig of rosemary in the cavity of each trout before cooking.
Broiled Trout with Cream:
Use a shallow pan instead of the broiler rack. After broiling 2-3 minutes
on the second side, pour 3/4 cup heavy cream over trout and broil another 5
minutes, basting a couple of times.  Omit lemon wedges and sprinkle with 1
tablespoon of chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of fresh tarragon or 1
teaspoon dried, crumbled.
