Suppose a man starts hating his wife soon after they are married.
Jacob said to Laban, “The time is up, and I want to marry Rachel now!”
Suppose a woman was divorced by her first husband because he found something disgraceful about her. He wrote out divorce papers, gave them to her, and sent her away.
The Lord knew that Jacob loved Rachel more than he did Leah, and so he gave children to Leah, but not to Rachel.
But that evening he brought Leah to Jacob, who married her and spent the night with her.
He might tell ugly lies about her, and say, “I married this woman, but when we slept together, I found out she wasn't a virgin.”
