Genesis 2:23 speaks of a miraculous couple in a literal one-flesh union formed by God without a volitional or covenantal basis. Genesis 2:24 outlines a metaphoric restatement of that union whereby a naturally born couple, by means of a covenant, choose to become what they were not in a metaphoric one-flesh family union—such forms the aetiology of mundane marriage in both the Hebrew Bible and the NT. It is this Gen 2:24 marriage that is understood in the Hebrew Bible as the basis of the volitional, conditional, covenantal relationship of Yahweh and Israel, and in the NT of the volitional, conditional, covenantal relationship of Christ and the church—that is, Gen 2:24 is the source domain which is cross-mapped to the target domain (God ‘married’ to his people) in the marital imagery of both the Jewish and Christian Scriptures. It is an imagery that embraced the concept of divorce and remarriage. The NT affirms that the pattern for mundane marriage is to be found in Gen 2:24 (Matt 19:3-9; Mark 10:2-12). But NT scholars and the church have conflated the aetiology of the Gen 2:24 marriage with that of Adam and Eve’s marriage described in Gen 2:23, and thus see that the NT teaches that mundane marriage is to be modelled on the primal couple—a model that imposes restrictions on divorce and remarriage that are not found in the Hebrew Bible. In contrast, this study suggests that the NT writers would not employ an imagery they repudiated in their own mundane marriage teaching, and that an exegesis of that teaching can be found, focusing on divorce and remarriage, which is congruent with its own imagery.

Dans les sociétés patriarcales comme l'Iran où l'inégalité entre les hommes et les femmes est élevée, l'exercice de la violence pour résoudre les conflits familiaux a donc une légitimité implicite. Ainsi les hommes pensent que la violence est une façon légitime et plus simple et plus efficace. Cependant, aujourd'hui le fait de la violence, en tant qu'une façon appropriée de résoudre les conflits dans les familles, va perdre petit à petit sa légitimité dans les sociétés patriarcales aussi ; parce que les femmes ne se soumettent plus, facilement à la violence. Comme le montre l'augmentation des femmes qui se présentent aux tribunaux pour demander le divorce en raison de violence conjugale, ou les femmes qui se suicident, ou s'enfuient de leur domicile, la société traditionnelle iranienne confirme ces faits. Concernant l'influence de la violence sur la déstabilisation des familles en Iran, nous avons introduit deux hypothèses principales dans ce mémoire de thèse. Première hypothèse, il s'agit de l'existence d'une relation significative entre le divorce et la violence conjugale physique dans la société actuelle d'Iran. En deuxième hypothèse, nous avons conclu qu'aujourd’hui dans la société iranienne le niveau de la violence qui cause le divorce est encore assez élevé. Selon notre hypothèse, ce niveau de violence est dépendant de plusieurs éléments démographiques et socio-économiques. Pour vérifier la vraisemblance de nos hypothèses, nous avons effectué une enquête. Les résultats de notre enquête montrent que le Degré de la Violence qui Cause une demande du Divorce (DVCD) en tant que la variable dépendante diffère significativement des sept variables indépendantes, à savoir : le niveau d'études de femmes, leur opinion sur la violence conjugale, le niveau des études des pères des femmes, le lieu d'habitation, le lieu d'habitation parentale, l'âge des femmes et le nombre d'enfants / In the patriarchal societies like Iran, the disparity between men and women is high and thus the exercise of the violence to resolve the family conflicts has an implicit legitimacy. There, man assumes that the violence is a simpler and more effective and justifiable way. However, today even in patriarchal society the women do not easily slender to the violence and the trend of resolving the family conflicts through violence is becoming less common. According to the Iranian traditional society, this attitude has increased the number of women who contact the courts to get the divorce or commit suicide, or run away from their house. Concerning the influence of the violence on the destabilization of families in Iran, we have proposed two main hypotheses in this report. First hypothesis, it is about the existence of a significant relation between the divorce and the physical conjugal violence in the current society of Iran. In the second hypothesis, we have concluded that there is a high ratio of violence that is causing the divorce. According to our hypothesis, this level of violence depends on several demographic and socioeconomic elements. To verify the credibility of our hypotheses we have conducted a survey. The results show that the degree of the violence which causes a request of the divorce as a dependent variable varies significantly with seven independent variables, namely: the level of women education, their opinion on the conjugal violence, the education level of the women's fathers, living place, parental living place, the age of the women and the number of children

Little scholarship has been dedicated to nineteenth-century Texas family life and no published scholarship to date has addressed the more specific topic of divorce. This study attempts to fill that gap in the historiography through a quantitative analysis of 373 divorce actions filed in Washington and Harrison Counties. The findings show a high degree of equity between men and women in court decisions granting divorces, and in property division and custody rulings. Texas women enjoyed a relatively high degree of legal and personal autonomy, which can be attributed, in part, to a property-rights heritage from Spanish civil law.
