Deuteronomy 20:7

20:7 Or who among you ¹  has become engaged to a woman but has not married her? He may go home, lest he die in battle and someone else marry her.”

Deuteronomy 28:30

28:30 You will be engaged to a woman and another man will rape ²  her. You will build a house but not live in it. You will plant a vineyard but not even begin to use it.

[20:7]  ¹ tn Heb “Who [is] the man.”

[28:30]  ² tc For MT reading שָׁגַל (shagal, “ravish; violate”), the Syriac, Targum, and Vulgate presume the less violent שָׁכַב (shakhav, “lie with”). The unexpected counterpart to betrothal here favors the originality of the MT.
