Matthew 5:32

Context
5:32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Matthew 5:44

Context
5:44 But I say to you, love your enemy and 3  pray for those who persecute you,

1 tn Or “that of the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

2 sn See the note on Pharisees in 3:7.

3 tc Most mss ([D] L [W] Θ Ë13 33 Ï lat) read “bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you,” before “those who persecute you.” But this is surely a motivated reading, importing the longer form of this aphorism from Luke 6:27-28. The shorter text is found in א B Ë1 pc sa, as well as several fathers and versional witnesses.
