[Jan_Sobieski]

Matthew 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery : and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Matthew 19:9 And I say unto you , Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery : and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

Hard to argue with that plain language.

Fornication is not adultry, I want to point out. Biblical divorce is only permitted between betrothal (which is more than an engagement but as binding as our marriage) and before CONSUMATION. If uncleanness is found (she's not a virgin), then divorce is permitted. The reason being that prior to the betrothal there was fornication -- sex outside of marriage.
