Matthew 19 - Concerning Divorce
Matthew 19 - Concerning Divorce
19 When Jesus had finished these words, He departed from Galilee and came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; 2 and large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there.
- The title of this message is concerning divorce
- God wants us know what He thinks about it
- When Jesus had finished these words
o What words?
o He had just finished teaching us about forgiveness in chapter 18
o He told us if we don’t forgive others He will not forgive us
o If you want all your sins forgiven you then you must forgive all others!
o Jesus means “Jehovah is salvation”
- He departed from Galilee which means “circuit” or “circle” or “to roll” or “encircle”
- And came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan
o Judea means “he shall be praised”
o Jordan means “the descender”or “to flow down”
o Jehovah is salvation, to turn men around, He shall be praised because He descended and His blood flowed down
- And large crowds followed Him
o How about you?
o Are you following Jesus with your whole heart
- And He healed them there
o Notice He healed large crowds (no problem for Him)
o Everyone who follows Jesus gets healed!
3 Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him and asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?” 4 And He answered and said, “Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
- Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him
o Notice their intent was bad from the beginning it was a test a trap
o They were trying to trap Jesus by getting Him to contradict scripture
- Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at at all?
o This means for no particular reason
o Just got tired of her and divorced her and sent her away
o This was the idea “for any reason at all”
- And He answered and said
o Have you not read
§ This is cool because these were Pharisees (supposedly doctors of the law)
o The He who created them from the beginning made them male and female
§ this is a important note (God made male and female people)
§ there are no other types (chromosomes determine whether you're male or female and they cannot be changed no matter what man says or does)
o for this reason we manage shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh
§ This is the way that God designed it and this is how it shall be period
o So they are no longer two but one flesh
