Show Notes

The rabbis of Jesus’ day had different views about divorce, and some of the teaching gave men a tremendous amount of power and freedom in ridding themselves of their wives. The culture, after all, was strongly patriarchal. To read Jesus rightly today, it’s necessary to recognize how his teaching was not trying to establish a new law, but to point to matters of the heart.
