Bible Note: The King James Version prominently displays the full text. As far as I'm concerned, the other versions are "adulterated". Leaving out that clause, changes the meaning of the verse in a very significant way. And you have to remember that this isn't a disciple uttering these words, these are the words of Jesus. It has been my observation that Christians have rampantly disregarded this passage. They've made all kinds of excuses why this passage should not apply to their lives and divorce and remarry, with the blessings of the Church, to their hearts content. |
