Ce que le judaïsme enseigne sur Le divorce
Selon le judaïsme, Le divorce : Contesté / nuancé.
Le judaïsme autorise le divorce par le mécanisme du get (acte de divorce). Le Talmud dit que lorsqu'un divorce survient, même l'autel du Temple verse des larmes. S'il est permis, il est vu comme un dernier recours douloureux. Un mari qui refuse de donner le get peut créer une situation d'agounah (femme enchaînée), préoccupation éthique majeure.

Judaism permits divorce but treats it as a tragedy. The Torah provides for divorce through a get (bill of divorce), and the Talmud has extensive regulations. The process requires the husband to write and deliver the get of his own free will — a requirement that has led to the modern agunah crisis, where husbands refuse to give a get and effectively trap their wives. Jewish courts (batei din) have developed various pressures to compel get-giving, including social ostracism and, in Israel, imprisonment. Reform Judaism accepts civil divorce as sufficient, while Orthodox Judaism requires a religious get. All movements recognize that some marriages must end, particularly those involving abuse.
