Radioman2: The KJV correctly uses the words "put away" in Matt. 19:9. "Putting away" refers the O.T. when men would send away the wife and not give a certificate of divorce. The man could at some latter date and if she had married someone else take her back because he had just "put her away" In Malichi that is wher God said "I hate putting away". In matther Jesus said very clearly that when a wife was "put away" and she married another she was commiting adultery. Of course she was, she had no certificate of divorce! These verses have been so taken out of context and so misused. So yes God hates putting away. None the less divorce is still breaking a covenant which is very serious. Most Christians have little idea how Holy a Covenant is with God and each other. This is especially so of marriage. Justme |

Matt. 19:9 KJV And I say unto you, Whosoever shall PUT AWAY his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. NKJV And I say to you, whoever DIVORCES his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery." NASB "And I say to you, whoever DIVORCES his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery." AMPLIFIED I say to you: whoever dismisses (repudiates, DIVORCES) his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. ESV And I say to you: whoever DIVORCES his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery." NIV "I tell you that anyone who DIVORCES his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery." (Emphasis added.) --Radioman2 |

Radioman2: Thank you for your response. I am aware that the majority of versions use the word divorce in this passage. This is translated as the word baptism has been. If you did a word study that might help and make this a little clearer. I am not standing up and saying divorce is good. I am saying that some have changed the intended meaning to mean more than it was intended. This is a contraversial topic and I want only to mmake a clearer point od a misunderstood custom. I mean no offence to anyone, and I appreciate your respectful way of answering, to me you show how we should dialogue. Thank you and blessings Radioman2. justme |
