her nails, and give her new clothes. Then she's yours (Deut
21:11-13)

(Exodus 2:16-21)
4. Purchase a piece of property, and get a woman as part of the deal. (Ruth

carry her off to be your wife. (Judges 21:19-25)
6. Have God create a wife for you while you sleep. (Gen 2:19-24)

seen a woman; now get her for me." If your parents question your decision,
simply say, "Get her for me. She's the one for me."
12. Kill any husband and take his wife. (1 Samuel 11)
13. Wait for your brother to die. Take his widow. (Deuteronomy,
or Leviticus, or Ruth)
