Subject: I just started reading the Bible and.... |
Bible Note: Pete, Yes and once again in the context of Mt.5:32 and Mt.19:9. So once again..... do you want to go specifically into whether divorce is warranted by domestic violence? AS you've stated the obvious. It does warrant divorce. If we leave the context of Matthew narratives we will find them. I couldn't understand why in your first post you went on the offense about others claiming how you wonder off context BUT NOW I UNDERSTAND. Your responses and reasonings are non-sequitor. In your first blog you didn't say anything about violence. You were confused about Mt.5:32 which Mt.19:9 clarified. If the CONTEXT dealt with the Pharisees abusing their wives, Christ answer would have been different but the context was the Pharisees divorcing and remarrying for ANY reason. Again, if the context was about ABUSE then Christ answer would have been different in Mt.19. But it's not, that's found in other verses outside of the context Matthew recorded. Can you find a context where Scripture permits divorce from domestic violence? I'm sure you can. But it won't be in the context of Matthew 5:32 or Mt. 19. Again now it's clear to me why you had to go on the offense about your research being non-sequitor. Peace to you, Ovadyah(sidney) |
