The Greek word porneia refers to illicit sexual conduct. In the Jewish debate regarding remarriage, this term (and its Hebrew counterpart zanah) referred to invalid remarriages. Jesus's exception clause, which employed the term porniea, used it in a technical sense to refer to an adulterous remarriage. Therefore, Jesus taught divorce and remarriage is adultery unless a man married a divorced woman, divorced her, and then he remarried (as his first marriage to the divorcee wa...

Polygamy was tolerated in the Old Testament, but not anymore. Polygamous marriages must be divorced. In a similar way, adulterous remarriages must be divorced.

No, Jesus didn't just object to a lack of paperwork. He prohibited divorce and remarriage, with or without documentation.

We can understand Jesus' teaching by understanding how His words were tailored for His audience at the time, i.e. the Pharisees.

If a person "repents" of an adulterous remarriage, but still continues it, is the person still in adultery? In this episode I outline Jesus' teaching on remarriage, discuss different notions of repentance as they apply to remarriage, and respond to questions, such as "Is remarriage the unforgivable sin?"

This is the nineth episode in a series that overviews the content of my book Divorce Your Remarriage. I am Chris Iverson and in this episode I respond to the question, is God divorced? This question arises out of Jeremiah 3 where the prophet in verse 8 teaches us that God "divorced" unsaved people who were affiliated with God, but were not converted. This text is employed by believers with a permissive view on divorce and remarriage to defend their lenient views. However, in...

This is the sixth episode in a series that overviews the content of my book Divorce Your Remarriage. I am Chris Iverson and in this episode I tackle 1 Corinthians 7. Paul contradicts the Corinthian theory that celibacy is required. He says that it is sin, not sex, that is to be avoided and therefore, sex within marriage is permissible. To avoid sin, marriage is a necessary institution since not everyone has the gift of celibacy. He writes to widows and widowers in verses 8-9...

This is the fifth episode in a series that overviews the content of my book Divorce Your Remarriage. I am Chris Iverson and in this episode I cover Romans 7:1-6. I show that, contrary to mainstream conservative evangelical thought, this passage teaches about divorce and remarriage, despite its main message about the law. In this text, Paul articulates a concept understood by the church at Rome. Remarriage while the first spouse is alive is a continual state of adultery regar...

This is the fourth episode in a series that overviews the content of my book Divorce Your Remarriage. I am Chris Iverson and in this episode I cover the exception clause as found in Matthew 5:32 and Matthew 19:9. First, the exception clause is an exception, not a setting aside of the question, not a mistranslation that should say “not even for fornication”, and not a mere description of “when” someone became an adulterer or adulteress. Second, when the condition for the exception ...

However, I leave the exception clause, Romans 7, and I Corinthians 7 for future episodes. This episode includes discussion about Deuteronomy 24, the Talmud, the rabbis Hillel and Shammai, and ...
