"Probably the worst mistake being made in this reasoning is using Moses in Deut. 24 to explain Jesus in Mt. 19 instead of using Jesus to explain Moses. There are many Old Testament passages that the Jews badly misinterpreted and are admittedly very difficult until explained in the New Testament. There is no doubt that Jesus and the Jews were discussing what was "lawful" and thus what was taught in the Old Testament. But let us not conclude that they were only discussing Deut. 24. Gen. 2:24 is part of the "law" as well and this is the part that Jesus made His appeal to." (Berry Kercheville)
