Matthew 19:1
When Jesus had finished saying these things, He left Galilee and went into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.
2 Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there.
3 Then some Pharisees came and tested Him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
