Summary/Abstract: Jesus’s call raising marriage to sacramental dignity points to the inadequacy of the law within the meaning and formation of a special relationship between a man and a woman. On the other hand it does not mean its redundancy. This ratio is considered to be constitutive and results from the creation of man in God’s image and His likeness. This image has not been destroyed even by a human sin that interferes with the relationship with God and between the spouses. It also has not destroyed the covenant with God of which the marriage is the image. Fulfilling this covenant in Jesus Christ, God renews the relation of a man towards a woman as well as the relationship of a man towards God .Resulting from the creation the unity of the spouses in the New Covenant shall be covered by the paschal mystery of Jesus Christ and is a real performing salvation. Beyond , the reality is open to eschatology and immersed in church as the bride of Christ forming the pattern and strengthen the covenant of marriage which is in Jesus Christ, a community of grace and the basis for understanding people.
