Matthew 19:2-9

2Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there.

3Pharisees came up to Yeshua, testing Him and saying, “Is it permitted for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?”

4“Haven’t you read?” He answered. “He who created them from the beginning ‘made them male and female’

5and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’

6So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no man separate.”

7They said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to ‘give her a certificate of divorce and put her away?’”

8Yeshua said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.

9Now I tell you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.”
