GOD divorced Israel.
Jeremiah 3:8
“And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.”
So GOD divorced Israel for their Idolatry. He's married to his church, the believers.
Matthew 19: 9 is speaking NOT just about physical fornication only, also Spiritual fornication.
Serving another god, Baal, Astarte, Moloch is spiritual fornication/infidelity and Jehovah GOD was right to divorce Israel.
