Mark 10:4-9 ▼

4 They said, “Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her.”

5 But Jesus said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart he wrote this commandment for you.

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

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

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

9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
