One of the realities facing today's is the contentious issue of  marriage and remarriage.  These issues have to be looked on with a renewed exegesis of those Biblical passage that deal with the indissolubility of marriage. Was Jesus more concern with the Jewish practice of divorce with its built in bias against women, especially those with female children rather than the never-ending nature of marriage?  Does anyone really think that the Prince of Peace would turn a blind eye to the evil of an abusive spouse?  I think not.
