Just the Two of Us

This is a BBC article that I am moved to share. It is about lost “dual pronouns” in the English language — pronouns used to refer to two people.
The relationship between two is so very precious in both family and spiritual life, as summed up in one of my favorite New Testament passages:
“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.”
Ephesians 5:25-33
It seems ancient peoples (and current peoples — the article points out that dual pronouns are still in use in Arabic today) knew the importance of two ❤️❤️
