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?”
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the ahardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your bwives, but from the beginning it was not so.
9 aAnd I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for1 sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”
