Divorce and Remarriage
Does Put Away & Divorce mean the same? - Christian Forums
I am dating a divorced woman and this topic came up. Bible translations are not consistent and inaccuracies exist. If anyone has clarity please provide. The links at the top has a very compelling argument to why divorced does not mean put away, and NIV is incorrectly translated in this regard. (I mean no disrespect but) if you DON'T believe the NIV is partially incorrectly translated then please don't respond to this post because there are inaccuracy's in EVERY Bible translation.
A quick summary:
A woman who is "put away" is one who WAS NOT given a written bill of divorcement, and therefore is it adultery to marry her. After she is given a bill of divorcement there is a reason to believe that marrying her is NOT adultery...because she is now properly divorced.
Details:
NIV is innacurate. Going to the greek roots provides clarity.
Luke 16:18 “Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”
Whoever ‘putteth away’ his wife (husband) commits adultery! This practice was cruel and was adulterous, but it was not divorce. This New Testament word, translated ‘put away’ is a form of the Greek word ‘apoluo’. It is the word in Greek which parallels the Hebrew word ‘shalach’ – ‘put away.’
‘Apoluo’, the Greek word for ‘putting away’, was not technically divorce, though often used synonymously.
He said when you put away a wife (without a written bill of divorce), and marry another (while still married), you are guilty of adultery. And the women who is ‘put away’ though abandoned, is still married. She would commit adultery if she married again (Luke 16:18)
Old Syriac text, a revision of the Peshitta, the scribe felt the need to add into Mark 10:11 the supplementary "and any man who divorces his wife and takes another commits adultery" which serves as confirmation, that even at that time, "putting away" a spouse was not considered to be divorce.
"It has been said, that, he who breaks up (שרי) with his wife shall give to her a certificate of divorce (דוללא). Therefore I am telling you that anyone who suffices with breaking up (שרי) with his wife, except in the case of her running around, forces her to commit adultery, and he who takes such an abandoned (שביקתא) woman commits adultery." - Matay 5:31-32
