16 ‘The(F) Law and the Prophets(G) were until John; since then, the good news of the kingdom of God(H) has been proclaimed, and everyone is urgently invited to enter it.[a] 17 But it is easier(I) for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter in the law to drop out.
18 ‘Everyone(J) who divorces(K) his wife and marries another woman commits adultery,(L) and everyone who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.
