1 Corinthians 7:39 |
Next Verse |
The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
Note 19 at 1Co 7:39: Paul expounded on this in more detail in his third letter to the Corinthians, which we call 2 Corinthians (see Life for Today Study Bible Notes, Introduction to 1 Corinthians). In 2Co 6:14-18, Paul gave explicit commands about not being unequally yoked to an unbeliever and promises of blessing from God for following these instructions.
