Context of Deuteronomy 22:13

11You must not mix wool and linen together to make your clothes. 12You must fix tassels on the four corners of your coat. Perhaps a man will marry a woman, and he has sex with her. Later he decides he no longer wants her to be his wife. 14He may then tell lies against her to say that she is bad. He may say, ‘I married this woman, and I had sex with her. Then I discovered that she had already had sex before I married her.’ 15If that happens, the woman's parents must bring the cloth that she slept on with her husband. They must take it to the leaders of the town to show them.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 13-30Verses 13-30 These and the like regulations might be needful then, and yet it is not necessary that we should curiously examine respecting them. The laws relate to the seventh commandment, laying a restraint upon fleshly lusts which war against the soul.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 13-3013-30. If a man take a wife, &c.--The regulations that follow might be imperatively needful in the then situation of the Israelites; and yet, it is not necessary that we should curiously and impertinently inquire into them.
