Contextual Overview

1 And, from thence, arising, he cometh into the bounds of Judaea and beyond the Jordan, - and there come together again, multitudes unto him, and, as he had been wont, again, was he teaching them. 2 And Pharisees coming near were questioning him - whether it is allowed a husband to divorce a wife, testing him. 3 But, he, answering, said unto them - What unto you did, Moses, command? 4 And, they, said - Moses permitted, to write, a roll of dismissal, and to divorce. 5 But, Jesus, said unto them - In view of your hardness of heart, wrote he for you this commandment; 6 But, from the beginning of creation, male and female, made he them; 7 For this cause, shall a man leave behind his father and mother, 8 and, the two, shall become, one flesh; so that, no longer, are they two, but, one flesh. 9 What then, God, hath yoked together, let, a man, not put asunder. 10 And, coming into the house again, the disciples, concerning this, were questioning him;

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.
