In the Bible its not recommended to remarry unless you are widowed.
why because theres no opportunity for forgiveness then.
you might supoose that divorce frees you up to marry again but not so.
You still paying for children. You still need to parent them. Or if not you still need to pay upkeep to your former spouse (alimony) because you decided to get married and either it was your fault you broke that vow or the other person broke it, and it got so bad that you cant even sort out your affairs amongst yourselves that you needed to involve the courts, lawyers, police or both.
why would you even WANT to marry again after going through all that, is the question. If you are loosed from a wife, the Bible says, dont look for another. If you are married, dont try and get divorced.
if a man wants to marry a divorced woman, he will have to deal with her ex and also the children of her ex. its very few men who do this because what usually happens is a woman actually might have had children with her ex but they never got married. So the ex has no claim on her anyway and the children are illegitmate i.e if not he is listed on he birth certificate, they belong to the state.
why people want to complicate matters I dont know. But just because someone is divorced dont assume they want to marry again. You want to love the Lord without distraction? How is being remarried going to help with that.
