Matthew 19:8 in Context — Matthew 19
6 Assim eles já não são mais dois, mas sim uma única carne; portanto, o que Deus juntou, o ser humano não separe.
7 Eles lhe disseram: Por que, pois, Moisés mandou [lhe] dar carta de separação, e divorciar-se dela?
8 [Jesus] lhes disse: Por causa da dureza dos vossos corações Moisés vos permitiu divorciardes de vossas mulheres; mas no princípio não foi assim.
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.
