9) FATHER-SON-MOTHER:
God made every person have an earthly father and mother to show that God the Father and the Holy Spirit are both responsible everywhere for bringing every person into the world and nurturing them, and have done this since the beginning of the human race!  For God indeed
“fashions” a person in the mother’s womb. (Psalm 139:13) We are indeed told to call God the Father “Abba,” which means “daddy”! (Romans 8) Also, one reason God makes sons highly resemble their fathers is to show the truth of Christ’s statement about Himself that “whoever has seen Me has seen the Father.”

10) Bridegroom/Husband and Wife:
Ideally, they show that Christ the BRIDEGROOM (Matt. 22:2,; 25) does not forsake His BRIDE, as those who are married are not supposed to part until death!  That is why divorce is so abominable to God (Matthew 19, Malachi 2:16), because its prominence in the world today obscures the fact of how faithful Christ is!  Marriage has been around since the
beginning of the human race, when Adam and Eve were created, to show that Christ the Bridegroom existed then too!  As husbands and wives are everywhere, so is Christ everywhere!  Interestingly, the ring finger on which the marriage ring is placed symbolizes God the Son, as the index finger and middle finger represent God the Father and God the Holy Spirit respectively.
