Ulangan 24:2-4

24:2 When she has left him ¹  she may go and become someone else’s wife. 24:3 If the second husband rejects ²  her and then divorces her, ³  gives her the papers, and evicts her from his house, or if the second husband who married her dies, 24:4 her first husband who divorced her is not permitted to remarry ⁴  her after she has become ritually impure, for that is offensive to the Lord. ⁵  You must not bring guilt on the land ⁶  which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.

[24:2]  ¹ tn Heb “his house.”

[24:3]  ² tn Heb “hates.” See note on the word “other” in Deut 21:15.

[24:3]  ³ tn Heb “writes her a document of divorce.”

[24:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “to return to take her to be his wife.”

[24:4]  ⁵ sn The issue here is not divorce and its grounds per se but prohibition of remarriage to a mate whom one has previously divorced.

[24:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “cause the land to sin” (so KJV, ASV).
