Nowadays, the civil government has become so involved in the marriage and divorce process, that Christians no longer question whether the state has the power to "license" marriage, or "grant" divorce. This is a thoroughly modern phenomenon, and it is anachronistic to read our modern marriage ideas back into Biblical law.
