"When¹ a manª hath takenª° a wife,ª and marriedª° her, and it come to pass¹ that¹ she findª° no¹ favourª in his eyes,ª because¹ he hath foundª° someª uncleannessª in her: then let him writeª° her a billª of divorcement,ª and giveª° [it] in her hand,ª and sendª° her out of his house.ª¹ ... Her formerª husband,ª which¹ sent her away,ª° mayª° not¹ takeª° her againª° to be¹ his wife,ª after² that¹¹ she is defiled;ª° for¹ that¹ [is] abominationª beforeª the LORD:ª and thou shalt not¹ cause¹ the landª to sin,ª° which¹ the LORDª thy Godª givethª° thee [for] an inheritance.ª" {Deu 24:1-4} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Where¹ [is] the billª of your mother'sª divorcement,ª whom¹ I have put away?ª° or¹ which¹ of my creditorsª°¹ [is it] to whom¹ I have soldª° you? Behold,¹ for your iniquitiesª have ye sold²° yourselves,¹ and for your transgressionsª is your motherª put away.ª°" {Isa 50:1} + "They say,ª° If¹ a manª put awayª°¹ his wife,ª and she goª° from¹¹ him, and become¹ anotherª man's,ª shall he return¹ unto¹ her again?²°¹ shall not¹ that¹ landª be greatly²° polluted?ª° but thou¹ hast played the harlotª° with manyª lovers;ª yet return¹ again²° to¹ me, saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 3:1} + "Thenª Josephª herª husband,ª beingª° a justª [man], andª notª willingª° to make²° her² a publick example,ª°¹ was mindedª° to put²° her² awayª°¹ privily.ª" {Mtt 1:19} + "² It¹ hath been said,ª°² Whosoeverªª shall put awayª° his²¹ wife,ª let him giveª° herª a writing of divorcement:ª ...
