But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery - that is, drives her into it, in case she marries again.
And whosoever shall marry her that is divorced [for anything short of conjugal infidelity], committeth adultery - for if the commandment is broken by the one party, it must be by the other also. But see the notes at Matthew 19:4-9. Whether the innocent party, after a just divorce, may lawfully marry again, is not treated of here. The Church of Rome says, No; but the Greek and Protestant Churches allow it.
