Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B
that the certificate of divorce of Moses finds complete justification before all
better human common sense.‖
[GGJ.05_256,02] At this I said to the somewhat embarrassed disciples, ―Not
all people accept the word (which was spoken to the Pharisees), but instead
only those to whom it is given to understand (Mt.19:11), and until now you
have not yet understood it, although it has been given to you to understand;
but you should nonetheless understand it, and you will!
[GGJ.05_256,03] Firstly I direct you all back to what I have already said
many times about this issue, and in an exhaustive manner.
[GGJ.05_256,04] But secondly it goes without saying that I would never have
informed you of a certificate of divorce through Moses if in certain cases the
necessity was not visible to Me, which can be well justified. But don‘t you
know then what a destructive abuse the Pharisees of these days and for a
long time have been making with divorces?! They themselves secretly plant
all sorts of dissatisfaction in an otherwise good marriage and finally bring
things so far that the couple have to divorce. Well, the divorce is performed
by the Pharisees and costs a lot of money, and that is exactly the reason why
divorces occur so frequently these days, and why I have placed the original
Law of God before the eyes of the Pharisees in this respect. They know My
power, and so they went away with a secret anger.
[GGJ.05_256,05] But thirdly I say to you all something else and pay attention
to it and even write it down! Behold, there are among the people of both
sexes some who were born eunuchs from their mother‘s womb, eunuchs, but
only male ones, who were made eunuchs by men for whatever reason, and
there are also very many who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the
kingdom of heaven! Whoever is able to understand that, let him understand
it. (Mt.19:12)
[GGJ.05_256,06] In short, these people are no longer suitable for marriage,
and such a marriage performed with these eunuchs is fully unlawful and can
be dissolved completely without any further thought, and the person who is
not a eunuch can marry again without committing adultery.
[GGJ.05_256,07] But if someone‘s wife is barren, he should do in the correct
sense what the old fathers did so that they bore a seed, and he will not been
called before any judgment for this. I now believe that you will finally have
understood this.‖
[GGJ.05_256,08] Said Peter: ―Except for one thing; when someone has a
wife who despite all warnings and loving chastisement nonetheless is
adulterous out of inborn pure randiness and is totally incorrigible, should one
then not divorce such a wife? Or what is the correct thing one should do
according to Your will?‖
