Yes, marriage is mentioned in virtually all Bible versions, including those predating and postdating the King James Version. The concept of marriage is a fundamental theme throughout the Bible.
The King James Version (KJV), completed in 1611, is a specific English translation. Earlier English translations like Tyndale's Bible and the Coverdale Bible also discuss marriage. Modern translations like the New International Version (NIV), the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV), the English Standard Version (ESV), and many others also contain numerous references to marriage.
The specific wording and translation choices may differ between versions, but the underlying concept and importance of marriage are consistently present.
For example:
* Genesis 2:24, which describes the creation of marriage, is found in all Bible versions. The KJV says, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Other versions have similar wording, conveying the same meaning.
* Jesus' teachings on marriage in Matthew 19 are also included in all versions.
In summary, marriage is a central theme in the Bible, and references to it are found in all versions, not just the King James Version. The specific wording may vary, but the core concept remains the same.
