Matt 19 - To be obedient is not to look at our past pig-eating, Sabbath-breaking, Christian ways.
Mat 19:3 And some Pharisees came to Him, testing Him, and saying, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause at all?"
Once again, the Pharisees were trying to put Yeshua on the spot publicly. The dilemma (at least the Pharisees perceived it as a dilemma) is that Elohim says He hates divorce (Mal. 2:14-16). But Torah allows for divorce in the case of indecency in the woman (and probably in the man also - remez) ( Deut 24:1-4). The Pharisees thought they could publicly test Yeshua because there were two rabbinic schools of thought on divorce in those days. Some taught that it was allowed only in the case of some sexual indecency while others taught that it was allowed for trivial reasons. They probably brought this up in order to at least divide the crowd that was following Him.
Mat 19:4 And He answered and said, "Have you not read, that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE,
Mat 19:5 and said, 'FOR THIS CAUSE A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, AND SHALL CLEAVE TO HIS WIFE; AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'?
Yeshua is quoting Torah once again (Gen. 2:21-25).
Mat 19:6 "Consequently they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."
Mat 19:7 They said^ to Him, "Why then did Moses command to GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE AND SEND her AWAY?"
Torah allowed for divorce in the case of sexual indecency. Yeshua is going to explain the reason for allowing this.
Mat 19:8 He said^ to them, "Because of your hardness of heart, Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.
Mat 19:9 "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery."
Divorce is required for adultery. If a man commits adultery, he is to be put to death and the wife is free from him. These laws on divorce and adultery are serious and should be taken literally now that we know the Truth. There are many among us who have been divorced or who have committed acts in the past that they regret. That is done and in the past. Now that we know His Will and His Torah, we must live by it. We must realize the penalties for adultery and divorce and act as if those acts are not permitted or, as in the case of adultery, worthy of death. The time to follow Torah is now and to look forward. The way to now be obedient is not to look at our past pig-eating, Sabbath-breaking Christian lives. Look positively forward in your obedient walk and not backward in grief and despair. Our ignorant past is not where we should dwell.
