Jesus Christ on divorce

Matthew 19:3-12
[3]Some Pharisees came to him and tried to trap him by asking, “Does our Law allow a man to divorce his wife for whatever reason he wishes?”
[4]Jesus answered, “Haven’t you read the scripture that says that in the beginning the Creator made people male and female?
[5]And God said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and unite with his wife, and the two will become one.’
[6]So they are no longer two, but one. No human being must separate, then, what God has joined together.”
[7]The Pharisees asked him, “Why, then, did Moses give the law for a man to hand his wife a divorce notice and send her away?”
[8]Jesus answered, “Moses gave you permission to divorce your wives because you are so hard to teach. But it was not like that at the time of creation.
[9]I tell you, then, that any man who divorces his wife for any cause other than her unfaithfulness, commits adultery if he marries some other woman.”
[10]His disciples said to him, “If this is how it is between a man and his wife, it is better not to marry.”
[11]Jesus answered, “This teaching does not apply to everyone, but only to those to whom God has given it.
[12]For there are different reasons why men cannot marry: some, because they were born that way; others, because men made them that way; and others do not marry for the sake of the Kingdom of heaven. Let him who can accept this teaching do so.”
