How would theonomy teach us to view marriage today in America? Obviously there are cultural details that were present in the OT that aren't present in the Western culture today. Would the standing law be that "Marriage is honorable" and then it would be dependant on your culture?

Does there need to be a ceremony for that marriage covenant to be a true covenant simply because it is the way of our culture? Would it be sinful without the ceremony if the two believers never joined to anyone else?
