Deuteronomy 21:13–21

¹³She shall put off the clothes of her captivity, remain in your house, and ⁱmourn her father and her mother a full month; after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. ¹⁴And it shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall set her free, but you certainly shall not sell her for money; you shall not treat her brutally, because you have ^jhumbled her.

Firstborn Inheritance Rights

¹⁵“If a man has two wives, one loved ^kand the other unloved, and they have borne him children, both the loved and the unloved, and if the firstborn son is of her who is unloved, ¹⁶then it shall be, ^lon the day he bequeaths his possessions to his sons, that he must not bestow firstborn status on the son of the loved wife in preference to the son of the unloved, the true firstborn. ¹⁷But he shall acknowledge the son of the unloved wife as the firstborn ^mby giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he ⁿis the beginning of his strength; ^othe right of the firstborn is his.

The Rebellious Son

¹⁸“If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and who, when they have chastened him, will not heed them, ¹⁹then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city, to the gate of his city. ²⁰And they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ ²¹Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones; ^pso you shall put away the evil from among you, ^qand all Israel shall hear and fear.
