The Lord hates divorce but never the less I don't know your situation even still if you did not marry again and kept your self from defiling your self with another than you did well. For by the law you and him are still married. But if you divorce him and marry or commit fornication or adultry you commit sin. I do not believe it was lawful for you to put him away it would have been better if he put you away so you can be 100 percent blame less I'm this matter but never the less if you keep your self from the sins above you did good if you had not divorce him you and he devorced you u did great. But never the less I'm not sure if divorce in this manner is sin but I know The Lord hates divorces but tho u out him away you are still married by the law of god

As I understand it.....
Under OT law, if one commented adultery they were put to death, thus leaving a widow who could remarry.
In the NT Jesus gave one just cause for divorce and that was fornication. So if the spouse commits adultery their spouse may divorce them and the thought is that, it is as if the adulterer is dead. The adulterer by their actions have terminated the marriage covenant.
 
2.4: No Trolling. Do not make an inflammatory remark just to get a response. Address issues not personalities. Respect where people are in their spiritual walk, and respect all others in general. Respect where others are in their spiritual walk, do not disrupt the flow of discussion or act in a way that affects others negatively including when debating doctrinal issues, in the defense of the Christian faith, and in offering unwelcome spiritual advice.

I did not disrespect any we talking doctrine I don't understand
 
If you posting this for me concerning my speech I'm sorry but this is what is commanded, be ye holy in all manner of conversation

This topic may be touchy but I will speak truth and if a man or women have a scripture that I'm not aware of should they not tell me? I don't understand why you post those comments as if I offend. If a man does right in his work he gets promoted. If a child does right in school his parents reward him in his desire
So if a man does right he is rewarded and if he does wrong he is chastened and instructed in the right way.

She and he say there is a scripture that justify divorce so let them say it to me. For I really do not know. How is this a violation?

There are two clear reasons for divorce in the Bible:
1) Sexual immorality Matthew 5:32;19:9
2) Abandonment by unbeliever 1 Corinthians 7:15

Young's Literal Transaltion
Mat 19:9 `And I say to you, that, whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, doth commit adultery; and he who did marry her that hath been put away, doth commit adultery.'

whoredom - fornication (KJV)
Strong's # G4202
porneia
por-ni'-ah
From G4203; harlotry (including adultery and incest); figuratively idolatry: - fornication.

the american/ other non-Jewish translations of Scripture provide a seeming reason for divorce that is not offered by Yeshua nor in the original / Hebrew Scriptures. it has been so prevalent and wide spread throughout (especially) the untied states and churches for so long that it is not possible to change a persons mind with any amount of truth, evidence or arguments, until Yhwh grants it from heaven.
in the Hebrew (original) Scripture, it was only during betrothal period that Yeshua said a divorce may be permitted, (before the two became one). out of several hundred 'churches' , only a couple churches may have discovered this, by Yhwh's grace, but it is clear and simple in Scripture.

it's a bit comparable to what Scripture says about slavery - Yhwh and Yeshua did not forbid it, and told slaves to obey their masters just as if they were obeying Yhwh Himself, so that Yhwh would be glorified. this is even in english Scriptures, but hardly ever is the truth admitted in american churches.
 
I still do not understand but from what I read if a man divorces his wife because she committed fornication s

The matter concerning the divorce is this who ever put away his wife except for fornication commits adultry and who ever marries who is divorce commits adultry
 
i thought someone posted a link to an accurate rendition of what Yeshua said, early in this thread. i'll go look.
basically, fornication / adultery was a cause for divorce according to Yeshua only if the act occurred before the consumation of the marriage, during the betrothal period. this was well understood by the Jews /Hebrews He was speaking to, and by saved Jews/Hebrews up to the present day.
