With “marriage” he refers to the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony, which the Church is free to limit to one man and one woman. The legal state of marriage has nothing to do with that and is regulated by the state.
The Catholic Church refused to recognize my grandmother’s divorce in the 1920’s and excommunicated her as an adultress when she remarried.
