Matthew 19:11 in Context — Matthew 19

9 Porém eu vos digo que qualquer um que se divorciar de sua mulher, a não ser por causa de pecado sexual, e se casar com outra, adultera; e o que se casar com a divorciada [também] adultera.

10 Os seus discípulos lhe disseram: Se assim é a condição do homem com a mulher, não convém se casar.

11 Porém ele lhes disse: Nem todos recebem esta palavra, a não ser aqueles a quem é dado;

12 Pois há castrados que nasceram assim do ventre da mãe; e há castrados que foram castrados pelos homens; e há castrados que castraram a si mesmos por causa do Reino dos céus. Quem pode receber [isto] ,receba.

13 Então lhe trouxeram crianças, para que pusesse as mãos sobre elas e orasse, mas os discípulos os repreendiam.
