1 And it was when Jesus finished these words he removed from Galilee, and came from the bounds of Judea beyond Jordan;

2 And many crowds followed him; and he cured them there.

3 And the Pharisees came to him, tempting him, and saying to him, Is it lawful for a man to loose his wife for every cause.

4 And having answered, he said to them, Have ye not read, that he having made from the beginning, made them male and female,

5 And said, For this shall a man leave father and mother, and be joined to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh?
