[marajade]

I choose to follow the Word. Not some man’s who thinks he is God.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

You are always right to follow His Word above what men say.

If you were wronged by adultery, God knows.

I choose to follow the Word. Not some man’s who thinks he is God.

That is what Jews and Moslems claim, and they are wrong. Jesus is God, and it is His Word that said divorce and remarriage constituted adultery (with a mention of an exception only in Matthew's Gospel).

The disciples, perhaps shocked, said if that was the case of a man with his wife it was better not to marry. It was a much stricter rule than the existing Jewish law and interpretation of divorce for Jews.
