A man choosing to leave his wife due to “lewdness/uncleanness”
is also permitted. But the divorce must
be documented as proof that they are no longer married and the laws of adultery
no longer apply to her so she is free to remarry. References to “unclean” can
be found in Deut. 23, which addresses harlotry among the daughters of Israel;
adultery or sleeping with someone before marriage and not informing your mate.
Law #127 Deut. 24:4 “[After a divorced woman
remarries another]…Her former husband may NOT take her back and remarry her;
that is an abomination…”
This Law is not
saying it is sinful to remarry a woman you were divorced from. It is saying you may not remarry that woman while
she’s married to her new husband. This is an abomination; for a woman to have
more than one husband.

ReplyDeleteMatthew 5:31-32 Talks about divorce and indicates that a man causes his wife to commit adultery when he puts her away. So what happened, did the messiah add to the law? What does that mean for the people that are currently trying to be obedient to the laws, but then get confused about that particular change?
ReplyDeleteShalom Sis, the Messiah came to explain the heart behind the matters of the Laws that preexisted before his coming. He didn't change them, he just expounded on them. There is cause and effect in every matter. While the Law deals with the aftermath effect, he taught on a possible cause.
