Luke 16:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 16:17

15 And He said to them, “You are those who ^ajustify yourselves ^bbefore men, but ^cGod knows your hearts. For ^dwhat is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

16 ^a“The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it.

17 ^aAnd it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one¹ tittle of the law to fail.

18 ^a“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.
