Matthew 5:33 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 5:33

Marriage Is Sacred and Binding

31 “Furthermore it has been said, ^a‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’

32 But I say to you that ^awhoever divorces his wife for any reason except¹ sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

Jesus Forbids Oaths

33 “Again you have heard that ^ait was said to those of old, ^b‘You shall not swear falsely, but ^cshall perform your oaths to the Lord.’

34 But I say to you, ^ado not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is ^bGod’s throne;

35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of ^athe great King.

36 Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.
