‏ Matthew 19:3-9

3 Some Pharisees came to
Lit Him
Jesus, testing Him and
Lit saying
asking, “ cIs it lawful for a man to
Lit send away
divorce his wife for any reason at all?
4And He answered and said, “Have you not read ethat He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘ fFor this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and be joined to his wife, and gthe two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, no person is to separate.” 7They *said to Him, “ hWhy, then, did Moses command to give her a certificate of divorce and send her away?” 8He *said to them, Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to
Lit send away
divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.
9 And I say to you, jwhoever
Lit sends away
divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman
One early ms makes her commit adultery
commits adultery
One early ms adds and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery
.”
