Contextual Overview
1 And he arose from there and comes into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan: and multitudes come together to him again; and, as he was accustomed, he taught them again. 2 And Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to divorce [his] wife? trying him. 3 And he answered and said to them, What did Moses command you? 4 And they said, Moses allowed to write a bill of divorce, and to divorce. 5 But Jesus said to them, For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment. 6 But from the beginning of the creation, Male and female he made them. 7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; 8 and the two shall become one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, don't let man separate. 10 And in the house the disciples asked him again of this matter.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he saith unto them,.... The same things as in Mt 5:32, 19:9; :-,
:-:
whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another; when there is no uncleanness in the case; when his former wile has not injured him by violating the marriage bed:
committeth adultery against her; to the injury of his lawful wife; or "upon her", or "with her", with the person he marries. The Syriac and Persic versions leave out the phrase, "against her".
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this question about divorce explained in the notes at Matthew 19:1-12.
Mark 10:12
And if a woman shall put away her husband - It would seem, from this, that a woman, among the Jews, had the power of separating herself from her husband, yet this right is not given her by the law of Moses. There is not, however, any positive evidence that females often claimed or exercised this right. Cases had occurred, indeed, in which it had been done. The wife of Herod had rejected her former husband and married Herod. And though instances of this kind âmightâ have been attempted to be defended by the example of Pagans, yet our Saviour was desirous of showing them that it did not free them from the charge of adultery. The apostles were going forth to teach Pagan nations, and it was proper for Christ to teach them how to act in such cases, and to show them that they were cases of real adultery.
