to pair up, couple together
Word Picture:
Oxen are yoked together when both are attached to the same beam in order to work together on a field. This word us used in reference to marriage as a symbol of a husband and wife being joined together by God on the same path. While this doesn’t mean that a husband and wife have to have the exact same gifts and ministries, it does mean that they should be united, inseparable, and ultimately working together toward the goal of glorifying God.

Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
