The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Gordon Wenham on Deut 24:1-4 and remarriage

Carlos,

Thanks for the link to Wenham's article. I am familiar with the argument that forbids remarriage for ANY reason whatsoever but have always found it wanting. Methinks John Murray, in This Article rightly exegetes the infamous 'exception clause' which Murray understands to permit remarriage after a legitimate divorce.

Here are a couple more articles which I have found helpful. Their inclusion here does NOT mean I give 100% approval of everything these authors have written, but I do believe in the main, they are faithful expositors to the Scriptures on this particular subject:
