If a man marries a woman and lives with her, and it will be that she will not find favor in his eyes, for he found in her a matter of immorality, and he wrote her a bill of divorce and presented it into her hand, and sent her from his house,
24:1
and she left his house and went and married another man, and the latter man hated her and wrote her a bill of divorce and presented it into her hand and sent her from his house, or the latter man who married her to himself will die –
:2-3
her first husband who divorced her shall not again take her to become his wife, after she had been defiled, for it is an abomination before Hashem. You shall not bring sin upon the Land that Hashem, your God, gives you as an inheritance.
:4
When a man marries a new wife, he shall not go out to the army, nor shall it obligate him for any matter; he shall be free for his home for one year, and he shall gladden his wife whom he has married.
:5
One shall not take a lower or upper millstone as a pledge, for he would be taking life as a pledge.
:6
If a man is found kidnapping a person of his brethren among the Children of Israel, and he enslaves him and sells him, that kidnapper shall die, and you shall remove the evil from your midst.
:7
When you make your fellow a loan of any amount, you shall not enter his home to take security for it.
:10
If that man is poor, you shall not sleep with his security. You shall return the security to him when the sun sets, and he will sleep in his garment and bless you, and for you it will be an act of righteousness before Hashem, your God.
:12-13
You shall not cheat a poor or destitute hired person among your brethren, or a proselyte who is in your Land, or one who is in your cities.
:14
Fathers shall not be put to death because of sons, and sons shall not be put to death because of fathers; a man should be put to death for his own sin.
:16
You shall not pervert the judgement of a proselyte or orphan, and you shall not take the garment of a widow as a pledge.
:17
When you reap your harvest in your field, and you forget a bundle in the field, you shall not turn back to take it; it shall be for the proselyte, the orphan, and the widow, so that Hashem, your God, will bless you in all your handiwork.
:19
When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean behind you; it shall be for the proselyte, the orphan, and the widow.
:21
You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, therefore I command you to do this thing.
:22
1 When a man takes a wife and is intimate with her, and it happens that she does not find favor in his eyes because he discovers in her an unseemly [moral] matter, and he writes for her a bill of divorce and places it into her hand, and sends her away from his house,
2 and she leaves his house and goes and marries another man,
3 if the latter husband hates her and writes her a bill of divorce, and places it into her hand and sends her away from his house, or if the latter husband who took her as a wife, dies
4 her first husband, who had sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, since she was defiled [to him], for that is an abomination before the Lord, and you shall not bring sin to the land the Lord, your God, gives you for an inheritance.
5 When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, nor shall he be subjected to anything associated with it. He shall remain free for his home for one year and delight his wife, whom he has taken.
6 One shall not take the lower or the upper millstone as security [for a loan], because he is taking a life as security.
7 If a man is discovered kidnapping any person from among his brothers, of the children of Israel, and treats him as a slave and sells him that thief shall die, so that you shall clear out the evil from among you.
8 Be cautious regarding the lesion of tzara’ath, to observe meticulously and you shall do according to all that the Levite priests instruct you; as I have commanded them, [so shall you] observe to do.
9 Remember what the Lord, your God, did to Miriam on the way, when you went out of Egypt.
10 When you lend your fellow [Jew] any item, you shall not enter his home to take his security.
11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you are extending the loan shall bring the security to you outside.
12 And if he is a poor man, you shall not lie down [to sleep] with his security.
13 You shall return the security to him by sunset, so that he may lie down [to sleep] in his garment, and he will bless you, and it will be counted for you as merit before the Lord, your God.
14 You shall not withhold the wages of a poor or destitute hired worker, of your brothers or of your strangers who are in your land within your cities.
15 You shall give him his wage on his day and not let the sun set over it, for he is poor, and he risks his life for it, so that he should not cry out to the Lord against you, so that there should be sin upon you.
16 Fathers shall not be put to death because of sons, nor shall sons be put to death because of fathers; each man shall be put to death for his own transgression.
17 You shall not pervert the judgment of a stranger or an orphan, and you shall not take a widow’s garment as security [for a loan] .
18 You shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the Lord, your God, redeemed you from there; therefore, I command you to do this thing.
19 When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to take it; it shall be [left] for the stranger, the orphan, and the widow, so that the Lord, your God, will bless you in all that you do.
20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not deglorify it [by picking all its fruit] after you; it shall be [left] for the stranger, the orphan and the widow.
21 When you pick the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not glean after you: it shall be [left] for the stranger, the orphan and the widow.
22 You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt: therefore, I command you to do this thing.

TORAH
(Law)
The book of Deuteronomy, also known as Devarim in Hebrew (“Words”), is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It contains a series of speeches by Moses to the Israelites, just before they are about to enter the promised land, which summarize and expand upon many of the laws and commandments given in the earlier books of the Torah. The word Deuteronomy literally means “second law,” indicating that Moses is rehearsing the law with the Israelites before they enter the land.
The book is often seen as a sort of farewell address by Moses, containing some of his final instructions and blessings to the people he has led for many years. It emphasizes the importance of following G-d’s commandments and remaining faithful to Him, while warning against the dangers of disobedience and idolatry. Overall, Deuteronomy serves as a significant text in the history of Judaism and Christianity, containing many of the foundational beliefs and values of these religions.
