DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY (The 7th commandment) Part 1
Adultery is EVIL. Many are in Adultery by messing with married people or by divorce and remarriage. Now, I know some of you are going to say, what about the exception clause in Mathew 19? We Jews have the custom of betrothal, what you understand in western culture as the period of engagement. During the period of time the Jewish couple was engaged, the man was called the husband and the woman was called his wife, though no marriage covenant had yet been established. It was also required to obtain a legal divorce to end a prospective marriage.
This is why the exception clause is only found in Matthew's gospel as it does not apply to Gentiles having no such custom. In Matthew chapter1 verse 18 to 25 we see Joseph being called Mary's husband, and Mary being called Joseph's wife, though only engaged. Also, we find Joseph contemplating divorcing Mary before even being married to her because he thought she committed fornication and wanted to end the prospective marriage.
So the exception in Matthew chapter 19 verse 9 means what it says. Divorce is only permitted for the cause of fornication during the betrothal, as that is not puttying asunder what God has joined together. After a marriage has been entered into, the only action that disolves that covenant is death according to scripture (Rom 7:2- 3; I Cor 7:39).
1 cor 7:10-11 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
