Timothy Klaver

The Bible on Divorce and Remarriage Timothy Klaver

Does Scripture sanction the grounds for "righteous" divorce and remarriage? The entire subject of divorce and re-marriage is a complex and emotionally charged issue. It is one of the most vexing problems the church faces in these modern days. Throughout church history, Christians have been divided on the issue of divorce and re-marriage. On the one side of the argument, it has been believed that Jesus declared it not a sin to remarry in the case of marital infidelity and the Apostle Paul declared it not a sin to remarry in the case of abandonment. On the other side of the argument, it has been believed that it is adultery to remarry while one's former spouse is still living. Why are there two different interpretations of the same Scriptures? Which interpretation is correct and in keeping with the context of Scripture? In this thorough exegesis of all the biblical texts on the issue of divorce and re-marriage, Timothy Klaver once again leads the reader by the hand, allowing the reader to see with their own eyes what the Bible itself has to say on this life-altering issue. This book will be an immensely valuable tool in instructing those who are troubled and struggle with this subject. May we give marriage the same reverence that Scripture gives it: "Let marriage be held in honor among all" (Heb. 13:4a).
