divorce and remarriage

John the Baptist's view on the validity of adultery, divorce, and remarriage

Clock: Got Faithfulness

Mark 6:17-18

17: For Herod himself had given orders to have John arrested, and he had him bound and put in prison. He did this because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had married.

18: For John had been saying to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."
Questions

  1. Did Herod marry Philip's wife? (See verse 17)
  2. Did John say it was ok for them to stay married since they had already married?
  3. Do you defend second marriages between unfaithful spouses and their affair partners, or do you admonish the unfaithful to divorce the second spouse and return to the first spouse?
