Summary:
Professor Moloney examines the New Testament's discussion of divorce, remarriage, and access to the eucharistic table. The earliest Church's accommodation of Jesus' teaching is part of our inspired Sacred Scriptures. The contemporary Church needs to question whether the current tradition concerning the divorced and remarried has not distorted the original revealed Tradition. Paul tells us why: For God has called us to peace (1 Cor 7:15).
