involve tailgating.

The Pharisees regarded divorce as a legal issue rather than a spiritual one—marriage and divorce were merely transactions similar to buying and selling land (with women being treated as property). But Jesus condemned this attitude, clarifying God’s original intention—that marriage bring unity that no one should separate. Jesus pointed out that God intended marriage to be a covenant—a permanent promise of love and faithfulness.
