Divorce » Jews condemned for love of
Yet you ask, "Why?" The Lord is testifying against you on behalf of the wife you married when you were young, to whom you have become unfaithful even though she is your companion and wife by law.

Be attentive, then, to your own spirit, for one should not be disloyal to the wife he took in his youth.
