The Divorced Christian

Ep71: Women could not initiate divorce (the Agunah Crisis)


Listen Later

Under traditional Jewish law, women could not initiate divorce - a reality that still creates a painful situation in Israel today known as the agunah crisis, where women are "chained" to marriages they cannot leave. Many Bible teachers overlook this cultural background, leading to misinterpretations of key passages on marriage and divorce. In this episode, Pastor Darius unpacks the historical and biblical roots of the agunah crisis, explains how it sheds light on Jesus' teachings, and reminds listeners why the Believer is no longer under the Law but under grace.
