TITLE: Marriage: Permanent and Intimate
SCRIPTURE: Mark 10:1–12

  1. v1-2 - THE PHARISEES COME TO TEST JESUS
  2. v3-5 - THE DIVORCE CONCESSION
  3. v6-9 - FROM THE BEGINNING OF CREATION
  4. v10-12JESUS INSTRUCTS THE DISCIPLES
  5. James Edwards

    In ancient Judaism, marriage was not regarded as a union of equals for the mutual benefit of both husband and wife but rather as an institution whose chief purpose was the establishment and continuance of the family and whose chief enemy was childlessness.

    James Edwards

    Jesus, however, teaches that marriage is not a male-dominated institution but a new creation of God, to which both husband and wife are equally responsible to practice discipleship in lifelong obedience.

    Matthew 19:9 (ESV)

    And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.

    Deuteronomy 24:1 (ESV)

    When a man takes a wife and marries her, if then she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some indecency in her, and he writes her a certificate of divorce and puts it in her hand and sends her out of his house, and she departs out of his house

    James R. Edwards

    Jesus’ declaration, however, imputes to women the status of sovereign moral agents. In v. 12 Jesus further establishes a woman’s moral agency and responsibility by declaring that if she is responsible for initiating divorce and then remarries she must bear full culpability for her action.

    James Edwards

    The essential thrust of 10:1–12 is the inviolability of the marriage bond as intended and instituted by God. Jesus does not conceive of marriage on the grounds of its dissolution but on the grounds of its architectural design and purpose by God. … Human failure does not alter that purpose.

    Jesus

    … from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.
