This book takes a look at divorce and remarriage from many different angles and sources. It compares contracts and covenants. As well as Old Testament and Jewish traditions. They all point to the same conclusion. Man was designed to lead the home and family. That means, the doctrine of marriage, divorce, and remarriage should be looked at through a patriarchal lens. Only the man was allowed to divorce his wife (Deuteronomy 24:1). If the woman initiated a divorce, she was to remain unmarried or reconcile to her husband (1 Corinthians 7:10-11). The divorced man is free to marry when loosed from his wife through the Law of Moses (1 Corinthians 7:27-28). The divorced woman is not free to marry unless she was put away by her husband for a matter of uncleanness (sexual immorality), or if he dies, releasing her from the law (law of the husband) that bound her to him (Deuteronomy 24:1-4; Matthew 19:9; Romans 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:39-40). A divorced woman who remarried while her husband lived (unless wife of one husband), was not considered a moral example for other women and not to receive financial help from the church if she becomes a widow through their widow’s fund (1 Timothy 5:9-10).
