The New Testament Epistles explain and apply the impact of the New Covenant in the life of the family, and that family of families we call church. Monogamy, fidelity, chastity — all part of God's original design are reaffirmed as the didactic pen of a brilliant Rabbi-turned-missionary interprets God's plan for the churches. Of dominance is the weight of symbolic application of truth as no fewer than 22 similes and metaphors teach church truth through family analogies. Family roles and relations for believers are clarified by both Paul and Peter
