Bible Answer: "If the marriage is dissolved because of adultery, the innocent party may remarry without jeopardy." NASB Matthew 19:9 "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery." AMPLIFIED Matthew 19:9 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. 'Jesus was confronted one day by the Pharisees about the question of divorce and remarriage. Please get that! The context of the passage, Matthew 19:3-9, the reason they continued to question Him, was not to learn whether or not a married couple could divorce. They already knew from God's declaration in Deuteronomy 24, the passage to which Jesus appealed, that they could. The Pharisees wanted to trap Jesus on the question of whether or not divorced couples could, according to Scripture, remarry. 'Jesus said, "God's original plan never included divorce, but because your hearts are hard, he permitted it on the grounds of adultery. If the marriage is dissolved because of adultery, the innocent party may remarry without jeopardy."' ____________________ DIVORCE AND THE PASTOR by David Sisler (http://davidsisler.com/9-2.htm) See also ID# 87604. |
