The apostle Paul, a masterful blend of human sympathy and staunch adherence to Divine principles, therefore advised that separation was possible in extreme cases of incompatibility: "Let not the wife depart from her husband: but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried" (1 Cor. 7:10-11).
Mtume Paulo mwenye mchanganyiko wa kupenda kuongoza wengine huruma ya mwanadamu na mwaminifu na kufuata mambo ya Mungu, kwa hiyo alishauri kwamba kutengana kuliwezekana katika kipeo cha masuala yasiyopatakana: "Mke asiachane na mmewe; lakini ikiwa ameachana naye, na akaye asiolewe" (1 Kor 7:10:11).
