214 - THE BRIDEGROOM DEVOTING HIMSELF TO HIS WIFE FOR ONE YEAR
Deuteronomy 24:5 -- "When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war or be charged with any business; he shall be free at home one year, and bring happiness to his wife whom he has taken.”
This commandment applies to all marriages excepting the case of one that remarries a divorced wife.*
