Mr 10:1-12
1Od tam je prišel v judejsko pokrajino in na drugo stran Jordana. Spet so se zgrnile okrog njega množice in spet jih je učil kakor po navadi.
2Pristopili so farizeji, in da bi ga preizkušali, so ga vprašali: »Ali je dovoljeno možu odsloviti ženo?« 3Odgovoril jim je: »Kaj vam je naročil Mojzes?« 4Rekli so: »Mojzes je dovolil napisati ločitveni list in jo odsloviti.« 5Jezus pa jim je rekel: »Zaradi vaše trdosrčnosti vam je napisal to zapoved, 6na začetku stvarjenja pa ju je Bog ustvaril kot moža in ženo. 7Zaradi tega bo mož zapustil očeta in mater in se pridružil svoji ženi, 8in bosta oba eno meso. Tako nista več dva, ampak eno meso. 9Kar je torej Bog združil, tega naj človek ne ločuje!«
10Ko so bili v hiši, so ga učenci spet spraševali o tem. 11In govoril jim je: »Kdor se loči od svoje žene in se oženi z drugo, prešuštvuje z njo; 12in če se ona loči od svojega moža in se omoži z drugim, prešuštvuje.«

Refleksija on Mr 10:1-12
Navdih - 2025-02-28 Dnevna molitev
Jesus knows that his authority is greater even than that of Moses and so he is free to change the commandments of Moses, which were written for people at a different stage of human development. His teaching here on divorce is clear and direct. In Christian marriage, God has joined a man and a woman to become one. We pray to try to live God’s way.
Sometimes, when we fail to follow the teachings of Jesus, we are tempted to excuse ourselves by saying, ‘If Jesus were here today, he would change his teaching.’ But Jesus is still here, and he makes his teachings clear through the authorised voice of his Church. Let us pray to be faithful to the teaching of our Church.
