Contextual Overview

1 AND he departed from thence, and came to the border of Judaea, at the crossing of the Jordan; and a great many people went to him there, and he taught them again, as he was accustomed to do. 2 And the Pharisees came up to him, tempting him and asking, Is it lawful for a man to desert his wife? 3 He said to them, What did Moses command you? 4 They said, Moses gave us permission to write a letter of separation, and then to divorce. 5 Jesus answered and said to them, It was because of the hardness of your heart, that he wrote for you this particular law. 6 But from the very beginning God made them male and female. 7 For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and follow his wife. 8 And both shall be one flesh; henceforth they are not two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined, let no man separate. 10 And his disciples again asked him about this in the house.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And in the house,.... To which Christ retired, after he had put the Pharisees to silence, and dismissed the multitude:

his disciples asked him again of the same matter; concerning the affair of divorces, be bad been discoursing with the Pharisees about; some things being said, they had not been used to, and which they did not thoroughly understand; and therefore chose privately to converse with him on this subject, for their further information.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this question about divorce explained in the notes at Matthew 19:1-12.

Mark 10:12

And if a woman shall put away her husband - It would seem, from this, that a woman, among the Jews, had the power of separating herself from her husband, yet this right is not given her by the law of Moses. There is not, however, any positive evidence that females often claimed or exercised this right. Cases had occurred, indeed, in which it had been done. The wife of Herod had rejected her former husband and married Herod. And though instances of this kind “might” have been attempted to be defended by the example of Pagans, yet our Saviour was desirous of showing them that it did not free them from the charge of adultery. The apostles were going forth to teach Pagan nations, and it was proper for Christ to teach them how to act in such cases, and to show them that they were cases of real adultery.
