Matthew 19:9 in Context — Matthew 19
7 Pourquoi donc, lui dirent-ils, Moïse a-t-il prescrit de donner à la femme une lettre de divorce et de la répudier?
8 Il leur répondit: C’est à cause de la dureté de votre cœur que Moïse vous a permis de répudier vos femmes; au commencement, il n’en était pas ainsi.
9 Mais je vous dis que celui qui répudie sa femme, sauf pour infidélité, et qui en épouse une autre, commet un adultère.
10 Ses disciples lui dirent: Si telle est la condition de l’homme à l’égard de la femme, il n’est pas avantageux de se marier.
11 Il leur répondit: Tous ne comprennent pas cette parole, mais seulement ceux à qui cela est donné.
