In New Testament times, rabbis were divided as to the valid basis for divorce. "Because he hath found some uncleanness in her" (Deut. 24:1) left room for interpretation. One group of rabbis insisted divorce could be granted only if the wife was immoral. Another group argued divorce could be secured by the husband if the wife displeased him in any way. Among the Jews, only the husband had the right to secure a divorce. Jesus refused to be drawn into the rabbinical controversy over the possible valid basis for divorce. Jesus pointed out that the permission of Deut. 24:1 was not God's original intent. Divorce was permitted only because of "the hardness of your heart." Then Jesus went back to God's original intent in Gen. 1:27, 2:24, permanent monogamy: one man and one woman together for life.
