Description
To many people the Bible appears to have nothing sensible or relevant to say about divorce and remarriage. Its teaching often seems harsh, and in saying that the only ground for divorce is adultery, it appears to condemn the victims of marital abuse to a lifetime sentence with their partner. New research into the background literature of the Bible, the ancient Near East and ancient Judaism shows that the original hearers of these teachings would have understood them very differently. 'Divorce & Remarriage in the Church' gives clear guidance about biblical grounds for divorce and remarriage which are both practical and fair in today's imperfect world.
