Yes, but in some cases, both may be a factor ...an unbelieving husband who is abusive.

I see what you're saying... so.... if she leaves, that scripture is saying she is then "unmarried." Yet, she still has a husband she may be reconciled to...so she is still married. Kinda confusing.

You are welcome :)

Sunny, low 80's :)

Thank you. I can agree with this. And yet, she still may not remarry. Would you agree?

Thank you. The only answers worth considering will have scriptural basis.

This may seem off topic, but really it isn't... are any of you aware of MK Ultra?

Exactly ...that was something I mentioned in a previous post ..."what if he had a sexual relationship with a girlfriend before marriage to his wife?"

Are you saying fornication is not grounds for divorce?

I don't see why not. I absolutely do accept it. There's just a lot more I would like to say...or add ....or ask ....

Yes, I knew it was you. :) Thank you for your replies. I'm thinking that a woman in such a case should do everything within her power not to be subjected to things that are sin ...such as being forced to be used by other men ....as one example. Still, she may not marry another unless her...

Yes, I agree. Grace and forgiveness should always be the first response. But how would one know if he is changed without going back to him? What looks like a reconciliation might be manipulation and setup for worse.

So a conclusion which I agree with is that she may leave, but not remarry. Of course, forgiveness toward him should be offered...but forgiveness and reconciliation are two separate things. It would be a risk for her to even test going back if he is given to violence. Now, if he is not a...

So you're saying the woman should offer grace and remain in an abusive or even dangerous situation.

If it were God's perfect and original plan, why did he only create one woman for Adam? And why did God not remove several ribs and create more women than just Eve? And why did God start over after the flood with Noah and his sons and each having one wife? Why does Scripture say that a man should...

According to Strong's Concordance, putting away is the same thing as divorcing. _____ G630 Greek: ἀπολύω Transliteration: apolýō Pronunciation: ap-ol-oo'-o ---------- Description: from ἀπό(G575) and λύω(G3089); to free fully, i.e. (literally) relieve, release, dismiss (reflexively, depart), or...
