1 | "God commanded the Jews to divorce" | Ezra 10:11 | kalos | 39248 | ||
There is only one reason to divorce and there are NO EXCEPTIONS. NO EXCEPTIONS? Are you sure? Is that your final answer? Ezra 10:10-11 (ESV) And Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, "You have broken faith and married foreign women, and so increased the guilt of Israel. Now then make confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers and do his will. Separate yourselves from the peoples of the land and from the foreign wives." In Ezra 10:10-11 "God actually commanded the Jews to [divorce] by separating from these idolatrous wives. ... Though God hates divorce, there are times when it is the lesser of the evils and would prevent a future and even greater spiritual catastrophe." (MacArthur Study Bible, Word Publishing, 1997) |

2 | "God commanded the Jews to divorce" | Ezra 10:11 | angel1 | 39455 | ||
kalos-all the old testament shows us this message--I am-have faith in me-I am the lord thy God thou shalt not have other gods before me. In this instance He is saying again "don't go to other gods-divorce yourself from -anything- that seperates you from ME. This is the law and judgement. Jesus came to fulfill the law and brings you forgiveness. God isn't "commanding" divorce.he commanded we not get into bed with false gods to begin with--but since we did---we must divorce ourselves now---repent . Christians are the "bride "of Christ. Ezra calls us to repentance and becoming part of the true bride. God's love to you- angel1 | ||||||
