Re: Divorce
I am not addressing "other religions" at all. I chose Chrisxtianity because I was persuaded it's true, the Bible is actually given to us by God Himself, and in making that choice I gave up all other religions as false. Not without studying them to some extent. I read my way to belief over a period of years and recognized that the truth is in the Bible so what other religions say may have some academic interest but that's about all.
I thought Jesus quoted "God hates diveroce" but I can't find it. It does occur in the OT in Malachi in a translation I don't use:
(NASB) 16 For I hatedivorce, says the Lord, the God of Israel,
I didn't look up the other translations but they would just have variations on this same meaning.
Jesus doesn't quote it, he merely expands on it, saying the woman is caused to commit adultery if you divorce her..
