9 “And I say to you, whoever puts away his wife, except on the ground of whoring, and marries another, commits adultery. And whoever marries her who has been put away commits adultery.”
10 His taught ones said to Him, “If such is the case of the man with his wife, it is good not to marry.”
11 And He said to them, “Not all receive this word, but only those to whom it has been given,
12 for there are eunuchs who were so born from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the reign of the heavens. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
13 Then young children were brought to Him to lay His hands on them and pray, and the taught ones rebuked them.
14 But יהושע said, “Allow the young children and do not stop them from coming to Me, for of such is the reign of the heavens.”
15 And having laid hands on them He went from there.
