Primary Verses:
-
Deuteronomy 22:13-19
-
"If any man take a wife, and go
in unto her, and hate her, And give occasions of speech
against her, and bring up an evil name upon her, and
say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found
her not a maid: Then shall the father of the damsel,
and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the
damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the
gate: And the damsel's father shall say unto the
elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he
hateth her; And, lo, he hath given occasions of speech
against her, saying, I found not thy daughter a maid;
and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity.
And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the
city. And the elders
of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of
silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel,
because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of
Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her
away all his days."
