A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
putteth away his wife, &c.--(See on Mat 19:3-9). Far from intending to weaken the force of the law, in these allusions to a new economy, our Lord, in this unexpected way, sends home its high requirements with a pungency which the Pharisees would not fail to feel.

3 The Pharisees [5330] also [2532] came [4334] unto him [846], tempting [3985] him [846], and [2532] saying [3004] unto him [846], Is it lawful [1487] [1832] for a man [444] to put away [630] his [846] wife [1135] for [2596] every [3956] cause [156]?
4 And [1161] he answered [611] and said [2036] unto them [846], Have ye [314] not [3756] read [314], that [3754] he which [3588] made [4160] them at [575] the beginning [746] made [4160] them [846] male [730] and [2532] female [2338],
5 And [2532] said [2036], For this [5127] cause [1752] shall a man [444] leave [2641] father [3962] and [2532] mother [3384], and [2532] shall cleave [4347] to his [846] wife [1135]: and [2532] they twain [1417] shall be [2071] [1519] one [3391] flesh [4561]?
6 Wherefore [5620] they are [1526] no more [3765] twain [1417], but [235] one [3391] flesh [4561]. What [3739] therefore [3767] God [2316] hath joined together [4801], let [5563] not [3361] man [444] put asunder [5563].
7 They say [3004] unto him [846], Why [5101] did Moses [3475] then [3767] command [1781] to give [1325] a writing [975] of divorcement [647], and [2532] to put [630] her [846] away [630]?
8 He saith [3004] unto them [846], [3754] Moses [3475] because of [4314] the hardness [4641] of your [5216] hearts [4641] suffered [2010] you [5213] to put away [630] your [5216] wives [1135]: but [1161] from [575] the beginning [746] it was [1096] not [3756] so [3779].
9 And [1161] I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] Whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], except [1508] it be for [1909] fornication [4202], and [2532] shall marry [1060] another [243], committeth adultery [3429]: and [2532] whoso marrieth [1060] her which [3588] is put away [630] doth commit adultery [3429].
32 But [1161] I [1473] say [3004] unto you [5213], That [3754] whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], saving [3924] for the cause [3056] of fornication [4202], causeth [4160] her [846] to commit adultery [3429]: and [2532] whosoever [3739] [1437] shall marry [1060] her that is divorced [630] committeth adultery [3429].
7 They say [3004] unto him [846], Why [5101] did Moses [3475] then [3767] command [1781] to give [1325] a writing [975] of divorcement [647], and [2532] to put [630] her [846] away [630]?
31 [1161] It hath been said [4483] [3754], Whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], let him give [1325] her [846] a writing of divorcement [647]:
12 And [2532] if [1437] a woman [1135] shall put away [630] her [846] husband [435], and [2532] be married [1060] to another [243], she committeth adultery [3429].
10 His [846] disciples [3101] say [3004] unto him [846], If [1487] the case [156] of the man [444] be [2076] so [3779] with [3326] his wife [1135], it is [4851] not [3756] good [4851] to marry [1060].
9 And [1161] I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] Whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], except [1508] it be for [1909] fornication [4202], and [2532] shall marry [1060] another [243], committeth adultery [3429]: and [2532] whoso marrieth [1060] her which [3588] is put away [630] doth commit adultery [3429].
32 But [1161] I [1473] say [3004] unto you [5213], That [3754] whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], saving [3924] for the cause [3056] of fornication [4202], causeth [4160] her [846] to commit adultery [3429]: and [2532] whosoever [3739] [1437] shall marry [1060] her that is divorced [630] committeth adultery [3429].
31 [1161] It hath been said [4483] [3754], Whosoever [3739] [302] shall put away [630] his [846] wife [1135], let him give [1325] her [846] a writing of divorcement [647]:
