Abstract

Introduction to this conference and paper indroduces the distinction between marriage and family. New Testamnet's investigation starts with undistructed community, Mathew and Paul bring difference and qualification of the undissolubility of the marriage in their communities. New Testament knows sacramentality for marriage and family. There is some relativisation of the marriage and family. Family has many fragmenatarian insights in the preoccupation and service to the most vulnerable human institution. Biblical pastoral orientation in the third part of this article about marriage and family gives priority to the preparation for Christian marriage. New Testament is a mirror for today's marriages and families. Finally New Testament is optimistic and perspective. There is a sensitivity for growing and realisation of New Testament's ideal of marriage and family.
