Matthew 19:3 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 19:3

Marriage and Divorce

1 Now it came to pass, ^awhen Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.

2 ^aAnd great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.

3 The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?”

4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who¹ made them at the beginning ^a‘made them male and female,’

5 and said, ^a‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and ^bthe two shall become one flesh’?

6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”

7 They said to Him, ^a“Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?”
