Marriage long predated Judeo-Christian monotheism. Romans, Greeks, Hittites, Sumerians, Egyptians et al practiced marriage. Your assertion that Marriage was a covenant of God is only true if you accept their pagan view of God or you dispute their notion of marriage ( remarkably similar to Judeo-Christian views by the way)

Maybe not, some belive the Judeo religion to date back as far as 10,000 years.
