1 Corinthians 6:16 Douay-Rheims

Or know you not, that he who is joined to a harlot, is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

Then he makes out how the fornicator becomes this, saying thus, "Know ye not that he that is joined unto a harlot is one body?" How is this evident? "For the twain, saith He, shall become one."

For the conjunction suffers the two no longer to be two, but makes them both one.
