Did God Divorce Israel? A Biblical Examination of Remarriage Theology

Send us Fan Mail What if the gospel wasn't about something new, but about restoring something ancient? In this teaching, Dr. R. L. Solberg carefully examines the claims of Divorce & Remarriage Theology by testing them against Scripture.  Does the Bible really teach that God married Israel at Sinai, divorced His bride, died to overcome a legal dilemma, and then remarried Israel? Or has an extra-biblical framework been imposed on the biblical text? Join us as we examine the evidence and ask one simple diagnostic question: Did the biblical authors actually teach this? **The Biblical Roots Ministries** Our website Our YouTube Channel Prof. Solberg's Blog Support our Ministry (Thank you!) **Chapters** 00:00 Introduction 03:55 What is Remarriage Theology? 09:29 A Wedding at Sinai 13:05 On Rabbinic Sources (Talmud/Mishnah) 14:31 What is a Ketubah? 17:05 Unfaithful Brides 21:54 The Great Divorce 30:33 The Legal Dilemma 43:01 The Remarriage (Pentecost) 45:18 A Renewed Covenant 50:15 What About the Gentiles? 53:05 The Lost Tribes of Israel 01:05:24 Three Biggest Dangers 01:06:15 Danger 1: Diminishes Sin 01:08:35 Danger 2: It Displaces Christ 01:10:47 Danger 3: Changes the Gospel **Key Passages** Exodus 19–24 — The Sinai covenant Jeremiah 3:6–22 — Israel's "certificate of divorce" Deuteronomy 24:1–4 — The divorce law Romans 7:1–6 — The marriage analogy Acts 2 — Pentecost Ephesians 2:11–22 — The "one new man" Ephesians 3:6 — The mystery of the Gentiles Ezekiel 37:15–28 — The two sticks (Judah and Israel) Matthew 19:3–9 — Jesus on divorce Isaiah 49:6 — The Servant's mission to Israel and the nations What if Christmas felt sacred again? *Full of Grace and Truth*, the new book from award-winning author R.
