The wide range of OT passages related to the issues of
divorce and remarriage includes at least six different Hebrew expressions
referring to divorce occurring altogether some 27 times, plus several
references to remarriage. Within the space constraints of this article I limit
myself to the most seminal passage dealing with divorce and remarriage, Deut
24:1-4. I have found this passage to contain far-reaching implications for
understanding NT passages on the subject and for properly recognizing the
hermeneutical relationship between OT and NT divorce/remarriage legislation. In
this fresh look at Deut 24:1-4 I will argue that crucial
grammatical-syntactical and intertextual features of the legislation have been
largely overlooked in previous studies of the passage, and that these features
provides keys for understanding the continuity between the Testaments with
regard to the subject of marriage and divorce.
