Matthew 5:31-32

Matthew 5:31-32

“It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Summary 

Christ continues to present His commands for kingdom citizens. By limiting divorce, Christ exalts the covenant of marriage and establishes yet another high kingdom standard.
