MAT 19:1–19:30 ©

The Gospel of Matthew 19

19And it happened that when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came to the regions of Judea beyond the Jordan. 2And great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

3And Pharisees approached him, testing him, and saying whether it is lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason. 4But he, answering, said, “Have you not read that the one having made them from the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5and said, ‘Because of this, a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife, and the two will be one flesh’? 6So then, they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God joined together, let man not separate.” 7They say to him, “Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of divorce and to divorce her?” 8He says to them, “Because of your hardness of heart, Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not that way. 9But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and the one having married one that has been divorced commits adultery.”[fn] 10The disciples say to him, “If thus is the reason of the man with his wife, it is better not to marry.” 11But he said to them, “Not all receive this word, but to whom it has been given. 12For there are eunuchs who were born thus from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs because of the kingdom of the heavens. The one being able to receive this, let him receive it.”

13Then little children were brought to him so that he would lay his hands on them and would pray, but the disciples rebuked them. 14But Jesus said, “Permit the little children, and do not forbid them to come to me, for of the ones such as these is the kingdom of the heavens.” 15And having laid his hands on them, he went from there.

16And behold, one, having approached him, said, “Teacher, what good thing should I do in order that I might have eternal life?” 17But he said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? One is good, but if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.” 18He says to him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, “Do not kill, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not testify falsely, 19honor your father and your mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.” 20The young man says to him, “All these things I have kept. What do I still lack?” 21Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in the heavens; and come, follow me.” 22But the young man, having heard the word, went away being grieved, for he was having many possessions.

23Now Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I say to you, a rich person will enter difficultly into the kingdom of the heavens. 24And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to pass through an eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.” 25Now having heard this, the disciples were very astonished, saying, “Who then is able to be saved?” 26But Jesus, having looked at them, said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” 27Then answering, Peter said to him, “Behold, we left everything and followed you. What then will there be for us?” 28And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that in the renewal when the Son of Man sits on his throne of glory, you, the ones having followed me, you also will sit upon 12 thrones, judging the 12 tribes of Israel. 29And everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or a father, or a mother, or a wife,[fn] or children, or lands for the sake of my name, will receive 100 times as much and will inherit eternal life. 30But many first will be last, and last, first.


Some early manuscripts do not include the words and the one having married one that has been divorced commits adultery.

Some manuscripts do not include the phrase or a wife here.
