Law Concerning Divorce
1 “When a aman takes a wife and marries her, and it happens that she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some1 uncleanness in her, and he writes her a bcertificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house,
2 when she has departed from his house, and goes and becomes another man’s wife,
3 if the latter husband detests her and writes her a certificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house, or if the latter husband dies who took her as his wife,
4 athen her former husband who divorced her must not take her back to be his wife after she has been defiled; for that is1 an abomination before the Lord, and you shall not bring sin on the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.
