Mark 10:2-12

MNT(i) 2 Presently some Pharisees came up and tested him, by asking if it was lawful for a man to divorce his wife. 3 "What did Moses command you?" he replied, 4 "Moses," said they, "permitted a man to draw up a bill of separation and divorce her." 5 But Jesus said to them. "Moses gave you that command because of the hardness of your hearts; 6 but from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. 7 "For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh; 8 so that they are no more two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder." 10 When indoors the disciples began to question Jesus again about this, and he said: 11 "Any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her; 12 and if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."
