Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - If he take him another wife - i.e., If he marry her himself, and then take another, even a legitimate, wife - her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage shall he not diminish - she shall retain during her life all the privileges of a married woman - he shall not diminish aught from them. The word translated "duty of marriage" seems to mean "right of cohabitation."
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) If he take him another wife.--Polygamy is viewed as lawful in this passage, as elsewhere generally in the Mosaic Law, which did not venture to forbid, though to some extent discouraging it. The legislator was forced to allow many things to the Hebrews, "for the hardness of their hearts" (Matthew 19:8).Her duty of marriage.--Rather, her right of cohabitation.
