Biblical principle:
Remarriage of a divorced woman is adultery; nothing could be clearer in Scripture.
"Whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery." - Lu 16
This is indeed the reason why the exception for putting away an adulterous woman is not an exception to "let not man put asunder"; if they were asunder, then remarriage would be no different from marriage. Rather, the covenant continues, remarriage is adultery - putting away, for a righteous man, is an alternative to making the woman a public example.
"Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily." - Mt 1
Only death dissolves the covenant of marriage, not "as good as dead", or "dead to me", or whatever excuse an adulterer wishes to make.
"Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man." - Ro 7
The divorced woman is bound by the law (this is a Torah community) so long as her husband lives. For the adultery of marrying a divorced woman there is one answer:
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God." - Ga 5

Thought for Today: Wednesday March 16:
YHVH loves you with an everlasting love, which flows out from the depths of eternity. Before you were born, He knew you. Ponder the awesome mystery of a Love that encompasses you from before birth to beyond the grave. Today’s human race lost the perspective of eternity. To distract himself from the gaping jaws of death, he engages in ceaseless activity and amusement. The practice of being still in YHVH’s Presence is almost a lost art, yet it is this very stillness that enables you to experience His eternal Love. You need the certainty of His loving Presence in order to weather the storms of life. During times of severe testing, even the best theology can fail you if it isn’t accompanied by experiential knowledge of YHVH. The ultimate protection against sinking during life’s storms is devoting time to develop your friendship with Him.
Who is like Him?

Blessed with lots of ripe bananas on clearance. Made banana bread, peanut butter banana muffins and choco-banana bars for some breakfast and desserts over the next few weeks.

Gen 5 21And Ḥanoḵ lived sixty-five years, and brought forth Methushelaḥ.
22And after he brought forth Methushelaḥ, Ḥanoḵ walked with Elohim three hundred years, and brought forth sons and daughters.
23So all the days of Ḥanoḵ were three hundred and sixty-five years.
24And Ḥanoḵ walked with Elohim. Then he was no more, for Elohim took him.

9 You shall do no work whatever on the Shabbat day save what you have prepared for yourselves on the sixth day, so as to eat, and drink, and rest, and keep Shabbat from all work on that day, and to bless YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler, who has given you a day of festival and a kodesh day: and a day of the kodesh kingdom for all Yisrael is this day among their days forever.
