Description:Divorce and Remarriage is AdulteryThis issue of divorce and remarriage often provokes some of the most intense emotions felt by thehuman heart because there is no relationship more personal than that of marriage. Most of us havemany relatives and close friends who have had multiple divorces and remarriages. But Jesus explicitlytaught that divorce and remarriage is adultery. Nevertheless, we must remind ourselves that what Jesustaught on divorce and remarriage is good news! It is an important part of the Gospel.Jesus said, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And ifa woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery” (Mark 10:11-12);“Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who isdivorced from her husband commits adultery” (Luke 16:18). Anyone or “whoever” divorces theirspouse and marries another is guilty of adultery. And whoever marries a divorced person is guilty ofadultery.Luke 16:18a is almost exactly the same as Mark 10:11: “Whoever divorces his wife and marriesanother commits adultery against her.” But Luke 16:18b introduces a new concept: “whoever marriesher who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.” In other words, the person who marries adivorced woman is guilty of adultery. This represents a harder teaching than Jesus' teaching in Mark. Inthe case of a man who wrongfully divorced his wife and married another woman, his first wife cannotmarry under penalty of adultery. Whether “innocent” or “guilty,” both spouses alike are regarded as off-limits to new marital unions.For Jesus to describe remarriage after divorce as adultery was radically counterculture to the first-century understanding of divorce. Jesus declared that divorce did not enable remarriage. According toJesus, legally dissolving a marriage by divorce does not actually end a marriage. The Lord said thatsubsequent remarriage is adulterous, which can only mean that the first marriage still stands.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
