24:4 her first husband who divorced her is not permitted to remarry 1 her after she has become ritually impure, for that is offensive to the Lord. 2 You must not bring guilt on the land 3 which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.
1 tnHeb “to return to take her to be his wife.”
2 sn The issue here is not divorce and its grounds per se but prohibition of remarriage to a mate whom one has previously divorced.
