The concept of a “soulmate” as understood today isn’t explicitly mentioned in the Bible. However, there are verses that touch on themes of love, companionship, and marriage. Here are twenty verses that relate to these themes:
Genesis 2:18
“Then the Lord God said, ‘It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.'”
Proverbs 18:22
“He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”
Proverbs 19:14
“House and wealth are inherited from fathers, but a prudent wife is from the Lord.”
Song of Solomon 3:4
“Scarcely had I passed them when I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her who conceived me.”
Song of Solomon 8:7
“Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, he would be utterly despised.”
Matthew 19:4-6
“He answered, ‘Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.'”
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
Ephesians 5:25
“Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.”
1 Peter 3:7
“Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.”
Genesis 24:67
“Then Isaac brought her into the tent of Sarah his mother and took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.”
Ruth 1:16-17
“But Ruth said, ‘Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there will I be buried. May the Lord do so to me and more also if anything but death parts me from you.'”
1 Corinthians 7:2
“But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.”
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
“Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”
Proverbs 31:10
“An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels.”
1 John 4:7
“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.”
Hebrews 13:4
“Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.”
Mark 10:9
“Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Ephesians 5:33
“However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.”
Colossians 3:14
“And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.”
1 Peter 4:8
“Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.”
While these verses don’t directly mention finding a “soulmate,” they emphasize the importance of love, commitment, and mutual respect in marriage and relationships.
