Deuteronomy 24
24:1 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:
a
then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give [it] in her hand, and
send her out of his house.
(
a) By this God does not approve light
divorcement, but permits it to avoid further inconvenience; (
Matthew
19:7).
24:4 Her
former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife,
after that she is
b defiled; for that
[is] abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance.
(
b) Seeing that by divorcing her he judged her to
be unclean and defiled.
24:5 When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not
go out to war,
c neither shall he be
charged with any business: [but] he shall be free at home one year, and shall
cheer up his wife which he hath taken.
(
c) That they might learn to know one another's
conditions, and so afterward live in godly peace.
24:6 No man shall take the nether or the upper
d
millstone to pledge: for he taketh [a man's] life to pledge.
(
d) Not anything by which a man gets his living.
24:10
When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go
e
into his house to fetch his pledge.
(
e) As though you would appoint what to have, but
shall receive what be may spare.
24:13
In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down,
that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be
righteousness unto thee
f before the
LORD thy God.
(
f) Though he would be unthankful, yet God will
not forget it.
24:17
Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the
g
stranger, [nor] of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:
(
g) Because the world valued these people least,
therefore God has most care over them.
24:22
And thou shalt remember that thou wast
h
a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
(
h) God judged them not mindful of his beasts,
unless they were beneficial to others.
