Laws Concerning Divorce

1 “When a man takes a wife and marries her, if then she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some indecency in her, and ^ehe writes her a certificate of divorce and puts it in her hand and sends her out of his house, and she departs out of his house,

22 ^e“If a man is found lying with the wife of another man, both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman. ^dSo you shall purge the evil from Israel.

23 “If there is a ^fbetrothed virgin, and a man meets her in the city and lies with her, 24 then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones, the young woman because she did not cry for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbor’s wife. ^dSo you shall purge the evil from your midst.
