Jesus Teaches About Divorce^(A)

19 After Jesus ·said all these things [^Lfinished these words; see 7:28], he left Galilee and went into the ·area [region] of Judea ·on the other side of [beyond] the Jordan River. ² Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

³ Some Pharisees came to Jesus ·and tried to trick [to trap/test] him. They asked, “Is it ·right [lawful; ^Caccording to the law of Moses] for a man to divorce his wife for any reason he chooses?”
