Bible Question (short): what passage are you referring to ? |
Question (full): Dear bartay - Can you tell me where in the Bible you are basing this statement... "Jesus said that there was no excuse for divorce except adultery being committed"... I have always understood that Fornication was the only reason. Matthew 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. Is not Deut. 22 addressing the issue of fornication and reason for "putting away" lawfully? Please explain |
