# For your hardness of heart
|
|
|
|
The phrase "hardness of heart" is a metaphor that means "stubbornness." AT: "Because you are stubborn" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
|
|
|
|
# your hardness ... allowed you ... your wives
|
|
|
|
Here "you" and "your" are plural. Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees, but Moses gave this command many years earlier to their ancestors. Moses' command applied to all Jewish men in general. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])

|
# from the beginning
|
|
|
|
Here "beginning" refers to when God first created man and woman. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
|
|
|
|
# I say to you
|
|
|
|
This adds emphasis to what Jesus says next.
|
|
|
|
# marries another
|
|
|
|
You can make clear the understood information. AT: "marries another woman" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis]])
|
|
|
|
# and the man who marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery
|
|
|
|
Many early texts do not include these words. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-textvariants]]) |
