why HE didn't marry
Why do you think our Lord Jesus Christ did not marry?
The first thing to note is the word "marry" which by interpretation is, bringing two entities together. Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English puts it this way, "To become someone's husband or wife", "To find a husband or wife for one of your children", "To perform the ceremony at which two people get married."
For the Lord, marriage is more of external, forceful exertion on two individuals compelling to live as one. This does not in any way, show exactly what the Lord God did to Adam and his wife at the genesis of things.... God caused a deep sleep on Adam, gave him general anaesthesia, took one of his ribs, replaced it with some flesh, took the rib from Adam's ribs and made his female counterpart and brought the same woman, not another, to Adam. Gen 2:18-25
According to Longman Dictionary, it means husband and wife exist as mere "offices" that any interested two individuals, persons or things may occupy, just anybody. It does not show respects to male or female but hinges on anything you love and can trust. This obviously did not represent what the Lord God said at genesis when man was created. God's ordinate command is, male and female which, His likeness - every female fit to her male.
