| Résumé : |
For centuries, the Church has been the foremost authority on the key subject of marriage. However, divergent views among Christians are passionately held. William Heth and Gordon Wenham believe that a new look at Christ's words is now essential to enable an honest reassessment of their interpretation and application.
Meticulously researched and lucidly presented, "Jesus and the Divorce" analyses each view in full, enabling the reader to evaluate their particular strengths and weaknesses. Detailed attention is given to the near consensus - among evangelicals in particular - that remarriage after divorce is allowable on the grounds of immorality. The authors, however, conclude that the view of the early church, which allowed divorce but denied the right to remarry, has the most to commend it. A radical shift in evangelical understanding is therefore needed. |
