Jesus' Radical Teaching on Marriage and the Church

Jesus' teachings on marriage and the church are intricately linked, with his radical views on marriage explaining his teachings about the church and vice versa. He emphasizes the sanctity of marriage by referring back to the Genesis concept of two becoming one. Jesus presents a strict prohibition against divorce and remarriage, viewing such acts as adultery against the spouse. The early Christians also held a no-exception view on remarriage after divorce in line with Jesus' teachings, marking him as a revolutionary in the context of his time.
