1 Corinthians 7:11, Let Not the Husband Put Away His Wife

1 Corinthians 7:11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

The Apostle Paul observed that in the situation where a wife leaves her husband, she should remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband.

William MacDonald commented well, “Separation does not break the marriage tie; rather it gives opportunity for the Lord to heal the differences that have come between and to restore both parties to fellowship with Him and with one another. The husband is commanded not to divorce his wife. No exception is made in his case.”

May the Lord be merciful to bless the marriage union. Husband and wife persevere to honour their marriage vow made before God. Amen.
