Explanation preview
This verse opens a legal case within Moses' covenant teaching to Israel, addressing a husband who turns against his new wife after consummating the marriage. The Hebrew verb for "hate" (sane) can mean rejection or disfavor rather than simple emotion, and it sets up the false accusation that follows in verses 14 to 19.
