(Heb. 12, 25–26, 13:22–25; Mark 10, 2–12) “What God has joined together, let no man put asunder” (Mark 10:9). With these words, the Lord affirms the indissolubility of marriage; only one legal reason for divorce is indicated - infidelity of the spouses: but what if something like this is revealed? Be patient. We have a universal commandment to bear each other’s burdens; the more willingly such close persons as spouses should perform it mutually to each other. Reluctance to endure inflames troubles and trifles pile up into the dividing wall. What is the mind given for? Smooth out the path of life. Prudence will sort out the opposites encountered. They do not get divorced from a lack of everyday prudence, but more from a reluctance to think carefully about the state of affairs, and even more from the lack of another goal in life other than pleasures. Pleasures cease, and contentment with each other ceases; further and further, here comes the divorce. The more the goals of life are vulgarized, the more divorces become more frequent - on the one hand, and on the other - lawless temporary cohabitation. The source of this evil is in the materialistic view of the world and life. You might be interested in:
