Question:

What did the council of Trent say about marriage and divorce?

Author: Anita Okunde



Answer:

The council affirmed the excellence of celibacy, condemned concubinage (cohabitation), and made the validity of marriage dependent upon the wedding taking place before a priest and two witnesses. In the case of a divorce, the right of the innocent party to marry again was denied so long as the other party was alive, even if the other party had committed adultery.
