Deuteronomy 10:4

Deuteronomy 24:4

24:4 her first husband who divorced her is not permitted to remarry ⁶  her after she has become ritually impure, for that is offensive to the Lord. ⁷  You must not bring guilt on the land ⁸  which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.

[10:4]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:4]  ² tn Heb “according to the former writing.” See note on the phrase “the same words” in v. 2.

[10:4]  ³ tn Heb “ten words.” The “Ten Commandments” are known in Hebrew as the “Ten Words,” which in Greek became the “Decalogue.”

[10:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[10:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” earlier in this verse.

[24:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “to return to take her to be his wife.”

[24:4]  ⁷ sn The issue here is not divorce and its grounds per se but prohibition of remarriage to a mate whom one has previously divorced.

[24:4]  ⁸ tn Heb “cause the land to sin” (so KJV, ASV).
