Listen "591 1 Corinthians in Context 8: Marriage, Divorce, and Remmarriage"

Episode Synopsis

The Romans looked at families and marriage very differently than most of us do today. In this session we’ll cover arranged marriages, the double standard for adultery, and the new Roman Women who were breaking all the rules. This will put us in a good place to read chapter 7 of 1 Corinthians and see how Christian marriage, divorce, and remarriage differed from how the world lived. We’ll see that not only was Christian marriage incredibly honoring to wives, it also provided a better foundation on which to build intimacy and mutuality.
Scriptures Covered: 1 Corinthians 7:1-16
