On Monogamy

Tertullian

But grant that these argumentations may be thought to be forced and founded on con- jectures, if no dogmatic teachings have stood parallel with them which the Lord uttered in treating of divorce, which, permitted formerly, He now prohibits, first because from the beginning it was not so, like plurality of marriage; secondly, because What God hath conjoined, man shall not separate, [1]–for fear, namely, that he contravene the Lord: for He alone shall separate who has conjoined (separate, moreover, not through the harshness of divorce, which (harshness) He censures and restrains, but through the debt of death) if, indeed, one of two sparrows falleth not on the ground without the Father’s will.
