Deuteronomy 24:1-4

Expanded Bible

24 A man might marry a woman but later decide she doesn’t ·please him [^Lfind favor in his eyes] because he has found something ·bad [indecent; objectionable] about her. He writes out divorce papers for her, ·gives them to her [^Lplaces them in her hand], and sends her away from his house. ² After she leaves his house, she goes and marries another man, ³ but her second husband ·does not like her either [hates her]. So he writes out divorce papers for her, ·gives them to her [^Lplaces them in her hand], and sends her away from his house. Or the second husband might die. ⁴ In either case, her first husband who divorced her must not marry her again, because she has become ·unclean [^Cin a ritual sense]. The Lord would ·hate [detest] this. Don’t bring this sin into the land the Lord your God is giving you as your ·own [^Linheritance; Matt. 5:31–32; 19:3–9].
