He saith to them -- 'Moses for your stiffness of heart did suffer you to put away your wives, but from the beginning it hath not been so.

'And I say to you, that, whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, doth commit adultery; and he who did marry her that hath been put away, doth commit adultery.'

His disciples say to him, 'If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.'

and if any one may say anything to you, ye shall say, that the lord hath need of them, and immediately he will send them.'

the baptism of John, whence was it? -- from heaven, or from men?' And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, 'If we should say, From heaven; he will say to us, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?

And answering Jesus they said, 'We have not known.' He said to them -- he also -- 'Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

And he answering said, 'I will not,' but at last, having repented, he went.

And having come to the second, he said in the same manner, and he answering said, I go, sir, and went not;

'And there were with us seven brothers, and the first having married did die, and not having seed, he left his wife to his brother;

And Jesus answering said to them, 'Ye go astray, not knowing the Writings, nor the power of God;

for in the rising again they do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers of God in heaven.

'And concerning the rising again of the dead, did ye not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
