Mark 10:7 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 10:7

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother
The Persic version adds, "and brethren and sisters", though without any foundation in the original text, in ( Genesis 2:24 ) , from whence this passage is cited; or in any copy of the evangelist:

and cleave to his wife; (See Gill on Matthew 19:5).

Mark 10:7 In-Context

5 But Yeshua said to them, "For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this mitzvah.

6 But from the beginning of the creation, 'God made them male and female.

7 For this cause will a man leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,

8 and the two will become one flesh,' so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.

9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."
