The lineage, either spiritual cultural or political or both, is passed down from ancestors to parents to children. The original older societies that relied on matriarchal lineages did not require written laws because women in charge of property knew who their daughters/heirs were by birth.
The politics of church and state came with patriarchal systems where men needed to protect control and inheritance of their estates from adultery using primogeniture and treating women and children as part of their estate. Only the clergy were literate so the written laws on marriage depended on the church. The point of liberation in Christ Jesus is to reconcile humanity with God, male with female, husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, owners with workers, leaders and followers as equals and break the cycles of abuse and oppression.
The original sin corrupting man's relations has been interpreted as 1. Rebelling against parental authority 2. Economic disparity between men as meat hunters and tribe leaders over women and workers as agricultural field hands worth less in society 3. Spiritual or social inequality between men and women having unequal access to knowledge.
The laws on marriage tying property and control of estates to lineage are part of this process of spiritual and political/socioeconomic development to restore natural equal justice and peace regardless of class or gender.
