Marriage to a Female Captive

Deuteronomy 21:10-14

When you go out to battle against your enemies, and the LORD your God delivers them into your hands, and you carry them away captive,

and see among the captives a beautiful woman, and you have a desire to her, and desire to take her as your wife;

then you shall bring her home to your house. She shall shave her head and trim her nails.

She shall take the clothing of her captivity off of herself, and shall remain in your house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month. After that you shall go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife.

It shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall let her go where she desires; but you shall not sell her at all for money. You shall not deal with her as a slave, because you have humbled her.
