B 19 Divorce and Remarriage in the 1st and 21st Century

Description   The New Testament teaching on divorce and remarriage appears to be impractical and unfair at first sight, allowing divorce only for adultery and forbidding remarriage until the death of the former spouse. But new insights into the world of the first century suggest that both Jesus and Paul affirmed four Old Testament grounds for divorce and allowed remarriage, though they rejected no-fault divorce and emphasised that divorce should be avoided if at all possible. This is an excellent example of the latest biblical research being applied clearly, helpfully and relevantly to an important pastoral concern.   Details   Grove code: B19 Author: David Instone-Brewer ISBN: 1851744592 Publication date: March 2001 Other formats available: Go to ebook version Online resources: View accompanying web pages Online reviews: 'clear, well-argued, and in some important respects novel' Anvil Read the full review Related titles: Other titles on marriage and the family   Price: £ 3.95   Quantity     Add to Basket Add to Wish List
