10:2 Some Pharisees came and tested him by asking, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"
10:3 "What did Moses command you?" he replied.
10:4 They said, "Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and send her away."
10:5 "It was because your hearts were hard that Moses wrote you this law," Jesus replied.
10:6 "But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.'
10:7 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,
10:8 and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one.
10:9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
10:10 When they were in the house again, the disciples asked Jesus about this.
10:11 He answered, "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.
10:12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."
