"When a man hath taken a wife,
and married her, and it come to pass that she find no
favour in his eyes, because he hath found some
uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of
divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out
of his house. And
when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be
another man's wife. And if the latter
husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement,
and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his
house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to
be his wife; Her former husband, which sent her away,
may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is
defiled; for that is abomination before YHVH: and thou
shalt not cause the land to sin, which YHVH thy God
giveth thee for an inheritance."
