The book explores the evolution of marriage concepts in early modern Protestantism, contrasting them with medieval Catholic sacramental views. It delves into four distinct models: the Lutheran and Calvinist social frameworks, the Anglican commonwealth approach, and John Locke's separationist model. Each model is linked to theological foundations and political shifts in marital jurisdiction, illustrating how authority over marriage transitioned from the Church to state-influenced structures. Through this examination, the text highlights significant theological and political transformations in the understanding of marriage.
