Indissolubility of marriage (Mc 10,1-12)

Sažetak
On Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem (cf. Mk 8:27 – 10:52)
pharisees ask questions about divorce (cf. Mk 10:2). A pericope
in examine (Mk 10:1-12) wishes to point out why it was crucial to
answer the question. The entire journey of Jesus is characterized
by Peter’s profession in faith round Caesarea Philippi, that our
Lord is Jesus Christ, and by the teaching of Jesus, especially
of his disciples to understand the significance of his messianic
mission, i.e. that to be Christ means to suffer torture/passion,
death and resurrection. These realities may be understood
only by following Jesus into hid footsteps on this journey to
Jerusalem. In fact, the pericope on the marriage which cannot
be dissolved is intended to display the qualities of people who
followed Jesus and his disciples in the marriage. The Jesus’ call
is addressed to Jewish audience well acquainted with the Law
of Moses, but also to the Hellenistic world in the cases when it
becomes possible for a woman to leave her husband. It is the
Book of Genesis quoted by Jesus that deals with the origins of
the marriage institution established by the Lord himself and its
no dissolution.
