Biblical Studies Press, 2005) [[#Verse 01.]] If a man marries a woman and she does not please him because he has found something indecent in her, then he may draw up a divorce document, give it to her, and evict her from his house.  [[#Verse 02.]] When she has left him she may go and become someone else’s wife.  [[#Verse 03.]] If the second husband rejects her and then divorces her, gives her the papers, and evicts her from his house, or if the second husband who married her dies,  [[#Verse 04.]] her first husband who divorced her is not permitted to remarry her after she has become ritually impure, for that is offensive to the Lord. You must not bring guilt on the land that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance. [[#Verse 05.]] When a man is newly married, he need not go into the army nor be obligated in any way; he must be free to stay at home for a full year and bring joy to the wife he has married. [[#Verse 06.]] One must not take either lower or upper millstones as security on a loan, for that is like taking a life itself as security. [[#Verse 07.]] If a man is found kidnapping a person from among his fellow Israelites, and regards him as mere property and sells him, that kidnapper must die. In this way you will purge the evil from among you. ### Respect for Human Dignity [[#Verse 08.]] Be careful during an outbreak of leprosy to follow precisely all that the Levitical priests instruct you; as I have commanded them, so you should do. [[#Verse 09.]] Remember what the Lord your God did to Miriam along the way after you left Egypt. [[#Verse 10.]] When you make any kind of loan to your neighbor, you may not go into his house to claim what he is offering as security.  [[#Verse 11.]] You must stand outside and the person to whom you are making the loan will bring out to you what he is offering as security.  [[#Verse 12.]] If the person is poor you may not use what he gives you as security for a covering.  [[#Verse 13.]] You must by all means return to him at sunset the item he gave you as security so that he may sleep in his outer garment and bless you for it; it will be considered a just deed by the Lord your God. [[#Verse 14.]] You must not oppress a lowly and poor servant, whether one from among your fellow Israelites or from the resident foreigners who are living in your land and villages.  [[#Verse 15.]] You must pay his wage that very day before the sun sets, for he is poor and his life depends on it. Otherwise he will cry out to the Lord against you, and you will be guilty of sin. [[#Verse 16.]] Fathers must not be put to death for what their children do, nor children for what their fathers do; each must be put to death for his own sin. [[#Verse 17.]] You must not pervert justice due a resident foreigner or an orphan, or take a widow’s garment as security for a loan.  [[#Verse 18.]] Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the Lord your God redeemed you from there; therefore I am commanding you to do all this.  [[#Verse 19.]] Whenever you reap your harvest in your field and leave some unraked grain there, you must not return to get it; it should go to the resident foreigner, orphan, and widow so that the Lord your God may bless all the work you do. [[#Verse 20.]] When you beat your olive tree you must not repeat the procedure; the remaining olives belong to the resident foreigner, orphan, and widow.  [[#Verse 21.]] When you gather the grapes of your vineyard you must not do so a second time; they should go to the resident foreigner, orphan, and widow.  [[#Verse 22.]] Remember that you were slaves in the land of Egypt; therefore, I am commanding you to do all this. ## ==📖 Verse-by-Verse Commentary== - ###### Overall. ###### Verse 01. ###### Verse 02. ###### Verse 03. ###### Verse 04. ###### Verse 05. ###### Verse 06. ###### Verse 07. ###### Verse 08. ###### Verse 09. ###### Verse 10. ###### Verse 11. ###### Verse 12. ###### Verse 13. ###### Verse 14. ###### Verse 15. ###### Verse 16. ###### Verse 17. ###### Verse 18. ###### Verse 19. ###### Verse 20. ###### Verse 21. ###### Verse 22. ## 🤔 Interesting Facts / Historical and Cultural Insights - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write down things that are not straight from commentary but interesting facts that ground the text in history. %% ## 🧠 Chapter Summary - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write a short paragraph (3–5 sentences) summarizing what happens in this chapter. - What is the main event or teaching? - How does this chapter fit the book’s overall story? - What stands out immediately?
