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
But from the beginning of the creation,.... Of the world, or of man: מתחלת ברייתו של עולם, "from the beginning of the creation of the world", is a way of speaking often used by the Jews r: the phrase "of the creation" is left out in the Syriac and Persic versions; and so it was in Beza's most ancient copy, and it is only read, "from the beginning", as in Mt 19:4,8, :-,
:-.
God made them male and female; the first that were created, Adam and Eve, the first parents of mankind, the first couple that came together were one male and one female; so that there could be no polygamy or divorce: Adam could not have more wives than one: nor could he put away Eve, and marry another; no provision was made for any such usages and practices; :-. In the Complutensian edition, it is added, "and said", the following words.
r Bereshit Rabba, sect. 3. fol. 2. 3. & sect. 4. fol. 4. 1.
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.
