Exodus 21:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Exodus 21:10

8 If she does not please her master, who has betrothed her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9 And if he has betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her according to the custom of daughters.

10 If he takes another wife, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, ^aand her marriage rights.

11 And if he does not do these three for her, then she shall go out free, without paying money.
