*This software company is called Rask AI, and its founder is Maria Chmir. It can translate the Chinese spoken in the video into 60 foreign languages, not only still using your voice, but also changing the lip shape. Currently accepting paid services. It’s terrible that technology has advanced to this point. Someone who has never said this can also make it look like he really said it. I can’t believe anything I see in the video in the future.* *这家软件公司叫Rask AI，创始人是Maria Chmir。 它可以将视频中所说的中文翻译成60种外语，不仅仍然使用你的声音，还可以改变唇形。 目前接受付费服务。 科技竟然发展到这个地步，真是太可怕了。 从来没有说过这句话的人也可以让他看起来像是真的说过这句话。 我无法相信将来我在视频中看到的任何东西。*

*Divorce & Remarriage in the Bible: The social and literary context* by Dr. David Instone-Brewer (Eerdmans, 2002) https://www.instonebrewer.com/DivorceRemarriage/DRB/Book/index.htm (Free Online Version, Parts of the Book) To many, the New Testaments teaching on divorce and remarriage seems to be both impractical and unfair. The plain meaning of the texts allows for divorce only in cases of adultery or desertion, and it does not permit remarriage until the death of ones former spouse. But are these proscriptions the final word for Christians today? Are we correctly reading the scriptures that address these issues? By looking closely at the biblical texts on divorce and remarriage in light of the first-century Jewish and Greco-Roman world, this book shows that the original audience of the New Testament heard these teachings differently. Through a careful exploration of the background literature of the Old Testament, the ancient Near East, and especially ancient Judaism, David Instone-Brewer constructs a biblical view of divorce and remarriage that is wider in scope than present-day readings. Among the important findings of the book are that both Jesus and Paul condemned divorce without valid grounds and discouraged divorce even for valid grounds; that both Jesus and Paul affirmed the Old Testament grounds for divorce; that the Old Testament allowed divorce for adultery and for neglect or abuse; and that both Jesus and Paul condemned remarriage after an invalid divorce but not after a valid divorce. Instone-Brewer shows that these principles are not only different from the traditional church interpretation of the New Testament but also directly relevant to modern relationships. Enhanced with pastoral advice on how to apply the biblical teaching in todays context, this volume will be a valuable resource for anyone seeking serious answers about married life.

He transforms the texts from being a series of mystifying, incomprehensible, and apparently random teachings into a coherent whole that makes Biblically and pastorally sense. He in no way minimizes the seriousness of divorce (in fact he affirms that every possible thing should be done to preserve a marriage)but he outlines a pastoral approach that makes sense. For me, the most astonishing thing was the understanding that in the Old Testament, a certificate of divorce was an explicit statement that the person is no longer married and is free to remarry (and indeed in that culture, remarriage would have been expected by the community). ~ Dr. Helen Riley, Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working in the National Health Service （NHS）of England. https://www.instonebrewer.com/DivorceRemarriage/DRC/IndexBook.htm (Free Online Version) https://www.ivpress.com/divorce-and-remarriage-in-the-church-ebook (Printed Version)
