A Total Distortion of Jesus On Divorce (13 minute vid)

I went down a rabbit hole of research to find out how some people have taken Jesus’ teaching on divorce to mean the opposite of what it seems like He was saying. The issue is whether there is a special definition of “put away” as compared to “writ of divorce”. On this peculiar view “put away” is taken to mean “send away a spouse without a divorce certificate”, which means that if you are “put away” you are still married. On the other hand, “writ of divorce” (or certificate of divorce) is taken to refer to an actual divorce with a divorce paper. Here’s why this view is wrong.
