Know that I don’t endorse these different works. They are resources showing a wide variety of interpretations from the most strict to relatively lenient. If you want to go deep on this topic then I recommend reading several authors, especially those you disagree with.
ARTICLES:
John Piper, “Divorce and Remarriage: A Position Paper” https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/…
Raymond Westbrook, “The Prohibition on Restoration of Marriage in Deuteronomy 24:1-4” https://www.wisereaction.org/ebooks/w… this is where he gives his case for the first marriage involving a man keeping the ketubah and the second marriage involving the woman getting it.
Wayne Grudem, “Grounds for Divorce: Why I Believe There Are More Than Two” (the infamous paper delivered at last year’s ETS) http://www.waynegrudem.com/grounds-fo…
David Instone-Brewer’s article on ancient marriage and divorce papyri. http://www.tyndalearchive.com/Brewer/…
The Damascus Document https://www.academia.edu/28913750/The…
Carol Osburn’s article refutes David Pawson’s view that the Greek shows second marriages are continual adultery. “The Present Indicative in Matthew 19:9” https://digitalcommons.acu.edu/cgi/vi…

See reviews of Instone-Brewer’s work here (Gagnon’s negative review and I-B’s response are particularly interesting) https://www.divorce-remarriage.com/
Craig Keener, “…And Marries Another: Divorce and Remarriage in the Teaching of the New Testament” https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/080…
Jay E. Adams, “Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage in the Bible” is probably the single book I’d recommend if you were only going to read one book and wanted extended advice for pastoral ministry along with simple but thoughtful treatment of the Bible passages in question. https://www.amazon.com/Marriage-Divor…
D.A. Carson’s commentary on Matthew https://www.amazon.com/Matthew-Exposi…

There are a number of commentaries and quite a few other scholarly articles I used in my prep that I’m not including here. But if you pay attention to the footnotes in these sources I’m sure you will have more than enough content to look into.
