It compares Old Testament, Jewish traditions, contracts and covenants. Man was designed to lead the family and home. 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 was free to remarry when loosed from his wife through the Law of Moses (1 Corinthians 7:27-28). The divorced woman is not free unless she was put away by her husband for a matter of uncleanness (sexual immorality). Or if he dies, releasing her from the law (of her husband) that bound her to him (Deuteronomy 24:1-4; Matthew 19:9; Romans 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:39-40). Unless a widow was the wife of one husband, she was not considered a moral example for other women and not to receive financial help from the Church through the widow's fund (1 Timothy 5:9-10).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael S.
