Does God have a wife?
God does not have a wife. The institution of marriage only began in Genesis 2, and God predates this creation account.
Moreover, if we look to the scriptures to why the marriage institution was initiated, we will find this:
God has never been alone due to the divine Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit). The covenant of marriage was introduced and intended for man not to be alone once sin entered the world, therefore, marriage is not an eternal relationship:
The marriage relationship is a picture for humanity of something far greater, our relationship with Christ. Once we enter Heaven there is no longer a need for a picture because we will be in the presence of Christ forevermore.
