l. And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;

2. And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

3. The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, �Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?�

4. And he answered and said unto them, �Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

5. And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

6. Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.�

7. They say unto him, �Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?�

8. He said unto them, �Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.�
