申命记 20章7节 到 20章7节 背景资料 上一笔 下一笔

     * betrothed a wife.
       It was customary among the Jews to contract matrimony,
       espouse, or betroth, and for a considerable time to leave the
       parties in the houses of the respective parents; and when the
       bridegroom had made proper preparations, then the bride was
       brought home to his house, and the marriage consummated.  The
       provisions in this verse refer to a case of this kind; though
       the Jews extend it to him who had newly consummated his
       marriage, and even to him who had married his brother's wife.
       It was deemed a peculiar hardship for a person to be obliged
       to go to battle, who had left a house unfinished, newly
       purchased land half tilled, or a wife with whom he had just
       contracted marriage.
