Matthew Poole and continuators on Deuteronomy 24:5

5 When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business : but he shall be free at home one year , and shall chear up his wife which he hath taken.

(i. e.) Any publick office or employment, which may cause an absence from or neglect of his Wife.

That their affections newly engaged may be firmly settled so as there may be no occasions for the divorces last mentioned.
