For the woman who is subject to a husband, is bound by the law to that husband during his life; but if the husband be dead, she is discharged from that husband.

She shall therefore certainly be counted an adulteress, if, her husband being alive, she be for another man: but if her husband is dead, she is free from the law; so that she shall be no adulteress, though married to another husband.

The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou hast spoken right, that thou hast no husband:

Let the husband render to the wife due benevolence, and in like manner also the wife to the husband.

The wife hath not power over her own body, but the husband: in like manner also the husband has not power over his own body, but the wife.

and even if she should be separated, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

For the husband that believeth not is sanctified by the wife, and the wife who believeth not is sanctified by the husband: else indeed your children were unclean, but now are they holy.

For how knowest thou, O wife, but thou shalt save thy husband? and how knowest thou, O husband, but thou shalt save thy wife?

The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth: but if her husband be dead, she is free to be married to whomsoever she will, but only in the Lord.
