3464 — Marriage and Divorce. Matt. 19:8, 9

Please explain Matt. 19:8, 9. If Moses permitted a writing of divorcement on account of the hardness of their hearts, would it be right for either one of the parties to marry again? R.
Under that law of Moses the woman might. The law is given in Deut. 24:1-4. In the light of Christ's teaching a man can put away his wife and marry again only in case of fornication. If he does, he commits adultery. If some one marries the guilty woman, he becomes an adulterer.
