Mark 10:4-9 ▼

4 They said, “Moses permitted us to write divorce papers and send her away.”

5 But Jesus told them, “He wrote this command for you because of the hardness of your hearts.

6 But from the beginning of creation God made them male and female.

7 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,

8 and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

9 Therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate.”
