Bible Question (short): Is wife equally obligate to leave parent |
Question (full): I facilitate a Divorce Care Group at my church. Last night one of the men said his wife challenged him on this scripture. Saying it was ok for her to stay with her parents during the marriage. I didnt know how to answer his question. Is there any scripture or commentary that says the wife is equally obligated to leave her parents. |
