Rose,

God does not biblicaly require any woman to remain in an abusive marriage. There is someone who posts here by the name of Don who could explain everything better than I could, and he’s posted on this very subject over at http://www.equalitycentral.com/forum/ if you want to learn more about it.
From what I’ve learned through the years though, God definately does not require it, in fact an abused spouse has Biblical grounds to divorce, if that were what they wanted to.
